Toro 51585 Power Sweep Electric Leaf Blower, 7 Amp 2-Speed

For collecting fallen leaves

This is 110 voltage supported. We indians can't use directly but with the help of step down monitor. Quality is very poor n buying is waste of money

For you Indian customers buying it on Amazon.in please note that this is a 120V US standards based device. Its socket also has a 2-pin blade type US. make sure you get a good 240-120This blower is very light and ideal for Indian dusty conditions. The motor is not too powerful and so doesn't generate too much dust and is barely adequate for blowing leaves across a garden. I would recommend this but for the need for the transformer.

Rattling noise with smoke on starting

I love my little Toro. It is the electric model. It is light and easy to hold in one hand. Very powerful -- it blows away wet leaves and helicopter seed pods like nobody's business! My only complaint is the extension cord does not fit snugly into the motor and has to be held in place. No big deal. Apart from that it is perfect, and I think very reasonably priced.

When we moved from the suburbs to a wooded area about 2 years ago, I start looking for a blower to help clear my 60 foot long driveway. When I saw the price and reviews for this one, I thought I couldn't go wrong. Now my only regret is that I wasted years moving leaves without one of these.In my opinion, a leaf blower is one of the most fun tools in the garage. And this one puts out a much better windstorm than I expected when I opened the smallish box. After I snapped on the funnel attachment, the thing was ready to go. One lesson I learned quickly was to run the power cord through the loop and clip under the back of the handle -- put there to prevent the cord from coming unplugged.Still, I was immediately impressed. This moves dry leaves great! I still pick up a rake from time to time for piles of wet leaves but only when I'm in a hurry. You can still move wet debris with the high setting. And I really like that there is a low setting, because I use that for flowerbeds and mulched areas. Seems just right for cleaning leaves out without disturbing anything else.But I'm even more amazed at the versatility and ruggedness of this blower. I use it for much more than clearing leaves:1) Drying off stuff that's wet (bikes, cars, children). After a messy ride, I'll get the hose out and wash the mud of my bike, and then switch the blower to high and dry off the whole thing by tracing the bike with the end of the nozzle. Works great. I've also used it for blowing water off my car after wash. And of course, chasing kids around with the blower is fun too.2) Moving Snow. Despite my wife telling me I look like a redneck, I now approach snow removal with a shovel in one hand, blower in the other. This method works great for our gravel driveway. In the past, we'd pushing rocks around with the snow shovels, but the blower works great for cleaning the snow off. For light fluffy snows, I don't even carry a shovel. For deeper snows, I push most of the snow off, and then run the blower behind the shovel. This blower has been covered in snow a few times (even dropped in the snow), but it keeps coming on and doing the job.3) Starting fires. After blowing the leaves away for campfires, this blower on the low setting helps get the flames going on those glowing embers.4) And of course, general cleaning. Let's just say I don't sweep my garage, deck, or paved areas anymore. I even clean my furnace's air filter by first blowing the dust of out it. That's true of anything else I might pull of my garage that just needs the dust blown off.This is definitely a product I would buy over and over again. Great value, versatility, and the thing is reliable. I've been using it for well over a year in all seasons, and the thing still blows me away (*folks!*) every time.

Aunque en México casi no hay costumbre de usar este tipo de aparatos, realmente son muy recomendables ya que no solo puedes barrer las hojas de los arboles, sino también la basura y el polvo de la banqueta e igualmente puedes secar el coche cuando terminas de lavarlo. Es muy práctico y la potencia del motor es muy buena, aunque si estás pensando usarlo para secar el coche, conviene más uno de un motor un poco más potente. Cabe aclarar que no incluye el cable de corriente que va del contacto de pared al aparato, hay que comprarlo por separado y fijarse muy bien en la forma de la entrada, igualmente se consigue fácil pero si es un costo extra en términos globales para tener en cuenta en la compra del soplador de hojas.

Neat compact unit but beware as it is supplied from the US, has a US connector on a 4" cable but no mains cable and plug. I do not thinks that a US to UK adaptor is available so I will need to rewire the mains supply to the unit. This is a shame as it has completely ruined the purchase experience, sending it back to the US is not on or I would just return the unit.

I like this item because it is very portably light. Despite this, it is powerful and efficient especially in blowing leaves or even small branches. Also it is affordablew too. I recommend it.
