Editorial Review: Amazon.com Product Description: We popped this out of the box, snapped it together, strapped it on, and were ready to move some leaves. What a delight this little machine is for cleaning up debris in the yard. It's lighter than the backpacks kids are hauling to school these days, the shoulder strap is comfortable, adjustable, and distributes the weight evenly, and the FlexTube is a great innovation that takes the strain off your arm and shoulder. Black & Decker crafted a joystick handle onto the FlexTube, letting you direct the 140 mph airflow with absolute ease. You can also take off the FlexTube and carry the tool by the handle to use it as a traditional blower--but the strap and FlexTube are so cool that we can't imagine using it any other way. Another nice plus--it's quieter than you'd expect for this much power. The Black and Decker blower/sweeper easily clears leaves, grass clippings, and debris from hard surfaces and uses an innovative FlexTube design with a joystick handle for improved control and ease of use. Providing up to 140 MPH air speed for powerful performance, this blower has a low-noise construction and is built with a comfortable shoulder strap to take the weight off your arms; a special cord retention system prevents the blower from accidentally coming unplugged. This product is backed by a 2-year warranty. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste Amazon.com Review: We popped this out of the box, snapped it together, strapped it on, and were ready to move some leaves.

 Rating: - good leaf blowerGood product, not as powerful as it boasts. But it's a good, relatively quiet leaf blower. Rating:  - Keeps on goingI've had this blower for about 5 years now. It's gotten left out in the rain/snow/sun on more than a few occasions over the years, and it's still going strong. The flex-tube is just now developing some cracks, and the replacement cost for the tube is nearly as much as a whole new blower. Fortunately, it can be used with only the straight tubes. I don't remember what I paid for it, but given it's longevity and reliability, it was well worth it. Oh, and the shoulder strap is great - makes it really ...

Rating: - Shadetree mechanicI bought this blower not only for blowing debris off the driveway but to blow the water off my car after I wash it, saving me several very wet towels. It appears to be of excellent quality, especially considering the reasonable cost, and it does the job. Rating: - Great light unit.....I bought this on a daily special from Amazon. It is light and easy to use. Does the job well. Simple, efficient and easy to carry. I was looking for a blower/vacuum, but the ones I had bought were bulky and didn't do an effective job. I got this because of the price but it does a great job for a blower. Even at its regular price it would be a great buy. Nice job Black and Decker. Now if only it had a vacuum too. :) |
