 Flymo Garden Vac 2700 August 22, 2009

Read the previous reviews for this. My comments after using a couple of times are:
1. I find it best to use blow then vac to pick up debris, I didn't think the suction was as good as some reviews suggest. The blow is though, so best to pile everything up in one heap then use vac.
2. If you are using vac to pick up cans, gravel etc then you MUST remove the shredder lines first - this is easy to do, otherwise you will ruin your lines as one review on here said happened to him.
3. As Iam using mine to keep a large drive clean then the next purchase might have to be the wheel attachment that is fitted to the nozzle

This item does exactly as advertised and makes easy work of clearing up the autumn leaves. The leaf catch bag is quite fiddly to fit correctly, but after a bit of perseverance, and refitting after initially using the garden vac, it stays in place nicely. The three options of blow, suck and suck with an added blow really makes picking up even wet leaves easy, even when they're stuck fast to the patio. This () is the cheapest garden vac around which also performs excellently.
My only worry is that the plastic blades used to cut the leaves on entry into the catch bag really don't last long at all, and it only comes with 5. My initial session of 30 minutes went through one alone, however they are available to buy online.

A reasonably priced garden vac/blower but not overly effective except in "blowing" mode.Collction bag is very fiddly and difficult to fit and is prone to falling off.
Pleasantly surprised... November 22, 2009

I ordered this garden vac having read the reviews of it on Amazon and of other comparable products. None seemed to be without their flaws and so I thought I'd hedge my bets and go for something at the cheaper end of the spectrum. My expectations were that it would do a reasonable job when set to "blow" but my hopes for the vacuum setting weren't high.
I was quite surprised by the size of the Flymo when it arrived (although this may be standard as I haven't used a garden vacuum previously); it is not a small tool (about 3ft long) and takes up a fair chunk of our garden shed, especially with the bag attached. Putting it together, in particular attaching the bag, was a fiddly operation but took about half an hour overall.
Using it is very easy, with a straightforward forward/back "gearstick" to set it to blow or suck. It did a great job clearing the leaves from our patio, where there was relatively little resistance. It had a harder time when trying to clear leaves from our lawn and gravelled areas - and if this is why you are thinking of buying it I'd perhaps recommend that you invest in something more powerful. But it did the job in the end and then, to my surprise, also did a reasonably good job hoovering up the leaves we had blown into piles. I had almost thought from previous reviews that it would be a waste of time even to try this function but that was not the case and I will be using it in future.
In summary: an excellent vacuum for a patio, reasonably effective elsewhere (both when set to blow and suck), a bit bulky but easy to use and good value for money.

This is a very good product. It does the job it claims to do.
It holds a good amount of material and is easy to use.
