Product Description

Amazon.com

This ingenious add-on turns your Trimmer Plus into a blower, or, with just a few simple adjustments, into a vacuum. Its 120 mph airflow and Quick Link connection will have your lawn clean in a matter of minutes, versus a couple of hours with a rake in hand. The balance when connected is excellent; the huge, rugged tube devours leaves and debris in a flash. The bag holds an impressive amount of mulched material and even empties easily. We think it’s a smart, economical choice for homeowners with yards large or small.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

3.0 out of 5 stars Ok Blower/Vac for the money, November 21, 2000

By	Charlie (Vineyard Haven, MA USA) - See all my reviews

This TrimmerPlus add on works ok for the money, but I can't recomend it for anyone with more than an 8th of an acre. I have a 1/4 acre yard and this blower was a bit underpowed, and not much faster than raking. In Vacum mode it works ok, but again is kinda slow and the bag fills up way too fast. I've been thinking of modifying the exhaust to feed straight into a 25 gal trash can. All in all a good idea, but not made for big yards.

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful attachment, March 7, 2002

By	Steve Dunn (Wilsonville, OR United States) - See all my reviews

Overall, I am very happy with the performance of the blower/vac attachment. The blower works well for blowing off pavement, although I haven't tried it on wet leaves yet. The vacuum function works well, too. It doesn't have quite the suction or blowing power of a dedicated blower or mulcher, but it works great for me. Unless you have a huge yard, you probably wouldn't want to purchase an individual blower and vacuum. I would recommend this product for the easy attachment to the trimmer motor and for exceptional value.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dont be afraid to get it dirty...., May 30, 2002

By	Neil K Riddock (Richmond, VA USA) - See all my reviews

Yes, it's made of plastic but so far the abuse I've subjected it to makes me wonder if it's lined with Kryptonite. I recently trimmed my boxwoods and Red Tip bushes/shrubs and after spending 30 minutes raking and picking up debris by hand, I said I wish I had a lawn vac to suck all this stuff up. Hey, I DO have a lawn vac! So....branches, leaves, twigs, etc got sucked up and placed nicely in the bag. A little grunting from the impeller blade but most of it came up aside from a few stubbon leaves. I havent tried the blower part yet but i can only imagine it works as well.
