Customer Rating:      Summary: Disappointed Comment: This system works best for small jobs. I found the fabric top kept getting twisted and required a lot of energy and time to keep it from twisting. I should have returned it. When it worked well, it filled-up the barrel so quickly, I spent more time putting the fabric top back on than I did emptying the barrel. If you have a lot of leaves, the fastest way to get them up is rake them onto a tarp and with the help of another person, load them into a trailer.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A must for yard work Comment: This is easy to hook up to a Larger plastic garbage can, with wheels, and you can get a lot done. A must.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not impressed, not a time saver for large yards Comment: Situation:
Very large acorn tree in my yard which dumps tons of leaves weekly. I filled twelve 33-gal bags this week, as I did last week, and will have to do again next week.
Pros:
> Reasonable quality for $30.
> Attached hose easily to my Leaf Hog blower/vac.
> Not much dust comes out during use.
Cons:
> Tricky to get to stay on garbage can
> Fills a 35 gal bag in about 5 minutes. I can fill the same bag with a rake as a shovel in about 1 minute!
> Even being mulched, bags are no more filled than when done by hand.
> Cord release is WAY too small for fingers to use. It's about the width of a pencil, recessed, and impossible to operate.
> Slips off garbage can from time to time. Other times you can't get it off.
> A low, wide, and heavy garbage can should be used, as plastic ones tip over a lot.
> Hose should be twice as long for easier use.
So ... it works, but I won't be using it again, and I would not recommend it to a friend.
This would be far better if in included a low-height garbage can, the hose went into and fastened to the lid, and then the lid had a fixed mesh vent on the other side. That way you could just pop off the lid and you'd far more efficient.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Leaf collection system for Blower/Vacuum LH4500 Comment: This hose/filter system fits snugly over the top of a waste container to catch mulched leaves blown from a blower/vacuum. Collection capacity limited only by the size of the container you choose to use. It works best with a trash barrel that has a lip for the tie-down to grip. It handled heavy, wet leaves well.
A trash container on a set of wheels would be handy, especially on smooth ground like pavement or smooth patio. Otherwise it works best to use the blower function to pool the leaves in one spot, and then vacuum them up into the container.
One small problem; the cinch cord sitting below the barrel's lip will trap leaf particles in quantity, which may spill when you go to slip off the filter cover from the barrel.
Customer Rating:      Summary: love it Comment: Great addition to the shed. Makes short work of cleanup in the yard w/o having to empty my smaller blower bag... kinda feels like I'm cheating =)
