Restored Worx WG524 12 Amp TRIVAC 3-in-1 Electric Leaf Blower/Mulcher/Vac with Leaf Collection System (Refurbished)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the simple design of the leaf blower converting to the vacuum. I wish the blower itself had a shoulder strap it gets very heavy after a while of work. The leaf collection system is ok. It saved some time but the strap that holds the tube on the adapter wasnt tight enough and the adapter came out of the tube. The tube kept coming out of the bag as well until i untied it and ran the string up over the tube itself. I think you need to do a better job with keeping the hose attached to the leaf collection system. Other than that it was great. Plenty of power and had no issues with wet leaves.

I did comparison tests between my older Toro electric, a gas blower, and this unit on leaves in my front and back heavily treed yard. The 600 was capable of blowing leaves from about 20 feet away, while the other models only did what was within about 10 feet; making the job about twice as fast. I also purchased the WG517 rated at 450 of air power, which honestly proved just about equal, since the front has a small reduction piece which acts as a constrictor to increase its efficiency. I prefer the electric because it's ALWAYS going to work, without the need of recharging or replacing a battery, and gas with ethanol can go stale, or cause problems if not stored properly. I have about 1/4 acre, so an extension cord is NO problem. I also purchased the 4093 Roof Gutter Leaf Cleaner attachment, since it has the adjustment cup to fit the Turbine blowers; but haven't tried it yet (The 4092 is the same, less one piece.) I was VERY IMPRESSED with these units, their prices, light weight, lower noise level, and SUPERIOR power!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE UNITS. I didn't enclose pictures, but my ground is level, with tall oak trees, and did this test on dry leaves, and a few days later on many wet leaves as well. Great results... I purchased a few of these units to try, and then give one to my daughter. Elliot
