Tackle big clean-up jobs the right way with this powerful blower vac. A variable speed 12 Amp motor lets you select from an infinite variety of speeds between 112 mph and 235 mph. This means that you can use low speeds to clear off hard surfaces and clean up tight areas without making a mess and without sacrificing the blower's high-speed functionality. Air Speed and Air Volume to Get Yard Jobs Done
Unlike some manufacturers, who simply reduce the size of their blower nozzles to achieve higher air speed ratings without increasing the practical value of their tools, Toro gives this blower vac the ability to balance between air speed (measured in mph) and air volume (measured in cfm) to ensure maximum power and performance. This Ultra blower vac offers air speeds up to 235 mph and air volume up to 255 cfm, allowing you to move a substantial volume of leaves and debris with ease. 3-in-1 Versatility Makes Managing Tasks Easy
A convenient quick-release latch lets you convert your blower into a vacuum in seconds without any tools, while a metal impeller makes it easy to mulch debris. The magnesium serrated metal blades on the impeller shred leaves and other unwanted debris into a fine mulch that you can use around your lawn and garden, saving money and recycling important nutrients. It also makes it easy to dispose of unwanted yard waste, since the impeller can reduce 16 bags’ worth of leaves to one bag. Clean and Efficient with Electric Power
Compared with gas blowers, electric blowers are quieter, more eco-friendly, and require less maintenance. They start up instantly without requiring you to master a finicky pull cord. There's no messy gas-oil mixture to worry about, and you don't have to contend with noxious fumes to get a job done. This high-powered blower also weighs in at a very manageable 7.5 pounds, making it easy on your back. This blower/vac is backed by a full two-year warranty. What's in the Box

 almost daily use for two and a half years July 29, 2010

Well, after using this powerful blower almost daily for two and a half years we will be buying another one just like it. It quit working one day. At this price we really can't complain, since it was used so heavily.Do advise the extension cord to facilitate easy movement.
Very good machine! July 28, 2010

I have bought two of these Toro Blower/VACs and they work very nice!. The product has great quality and a robust construcion for all your outdoor duties. The airspeed adjust knob is great too!, it lets you choose from different velocities, depending of your moment task need. It also includes a handy big bag for storing the product when not in use.
I previously had one Toro VAC/Blower some months before, and I recommend it with no doubt, these are great for a lot of home/outdoor tasks.
 Great, but don't cords suck July 28, 2010
D. J. Brown (RR, AZ)
This is a great product best in class. It's just a shame no one can make a great cordless blower that lasts more than a few minutes without a recharge.
 Great but gets you dirty.... July 25, 2010

The Toro was bought for me to use in cleaning up my rose beds. I used it and it had good vacuum pressure and did a good job the only thing was it filtered dirt all over you.
Nice blower July 24, 2010

I've only used this for blowing grass clippings so far, I bought it because I was tired of messing with two stroke gas engines that can be finicky and the fact I have a smaller yard with plenty of outside outlets. At first glance I was like 'this thing is larger than it appeared, hope it's not too heavy to lug around', maybe it was the large handle that gave me this impression but I soon found out I could crank it up and control one handed and it did not try to pull to the side like i expected. But it was nice to have the large handle to double grip if i wanted.My favorite thing about this blower is the dial the air speed you need which is handy if you want to just blow the dust off the garage floor without creating a dust storm or crank it up to blow dry the car after washing.Even while blowing grass clippings, I could dial it down to zero if I needed to set it down to pick something up. Can't give it a five because I don't know about longevity or how it works as a vacuum, I may never try that.
