Tools and Hardware Reviews of Toro Ultra 12 Amp Variable Speed Electric Blower/Vacuum With Metal Impeller #51599
Customer Review: far better than expected
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this blower/vac out of sheer frustration with gas motors that wouldn't start, or needed constant service. It proved to be more powerful, more versatile, and work better than I expected from it. It does a great job of blowing things clear, which is what I was really after, but when I gave it the first trial at sucking up and shredding leaves and debris, I was pleastantly suprised as well! I have no gripes with it, and can highly recommend it.Customer Review: Great Blower
Summary: 5 Stars
Having in the past been in the small engine sales and repair business, I am partial to gasoline powered leaf blowers. However, in order to get quality in a hand held gasoline blower, it would be necessary for me to spend around $200.00 or more. This is more that I wished to put into a blower at this time.
I wanted a blower I could use without having to keep mixed gas on hand and have my clothes smell of exhaust fumes each time I used it. I have a back pack blower now, which is heavy, meaning only I can use it. Having my wife be able to blow off the deck and sidewalks without my help was a big consideration as to what I would purchase.
The electric blowers I came across left me thinking I would have to take a giant step backward in performance and reliability. I read reviews on every electric leaf blower I could find, and was still less than comfortable with the choices.
I accidently came across the TORO ULTRA model 51599. The reviews were great. The variable speed control and metal blower impeller blade were features I really liked. The airflow CFM and MPH were also better that most hand held gasoline models I had researched.
I decided to purchace the TORO, which arrived very quickly. I was very impressed with the looks and build quality of this machine, and after using it I am even more impressed.
The volume of air is tremendous, the air speed is easily adjusted with a rotary knob, and the noise is reasonable for a blower of this power.
This is the best purchase I have made in quite some time. Needless to say I am very pleased with this TORO, and recommend it to anyone looking for a quality and powerful hand held electric leaf blower.Toro Ultra 12 Amp Variable Speed Electric Blower/Vacuum With Metal Impeller #51599
Customer Review: What a total disappointment!
Summary: 1 Stars
I did a lot of research before purchasing a blower, and this was supposed to be the best one. I used it 4 times last year. I got it out yesterday and it died after 10 minutes. I could smell the motor getting really hot, and then it stopped. $70 + down the drain. Now I don't know what to buy!!!!
Customer Review: love the new blower
Summary: 5 Stars
my husband and i love our new blower we use it at our camp where we have gravel down and cannot rake. It does a great job and we have found other uses for it, really impressed with the power.Customer Review: Indispensable tool for fall cleanup!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this since last fall. We have been very happy with its performance. We were going to hire a contractor to do fall cleanup. Instead of wasting hard-earned money, and with the added benefit of burning calories, we are doing it ourselves this year. This little sucka works simply sucks up everything in sight. Thicker branches are minor annoyances, but a couple tap usually clear the pathway rightaway.
We use the blower to gather the leaves and the vac to sucks them up. The trick is transferring the content from the vac bag to municipal leaves bag. If you compressed the filled bag sideways (zipper closed, of course)before the transfer, the vac bag fits in much better with much less chances of tearing the bag. I hate raking leaves, this tool saves me lots of time!
