Am thrilled the foliage sweeping is over .... The assembly took about 5 minutes and then immediately out and tried. The fan mode can be continuously adjusted as the suction mode, but I had all the time are him "fully" on. Leaves and smaller branches are "blown" in no time together and then soaked and chopped. The bag has a practical zipper for emptying, thus one must not keep the bag from Disconnect. Surely it's not so funny when the leaves are wet from the rain, but so has any comparable device so its problems or you have to get a sweeper .... In any case, the construction seems durable and my neighbor is annoyed, because he has for his leaf blower paid three times and can no longer ... Strong buy recommendation !!
