BLACK+DECKER Leaf Collection System, (BV-006L)

Was very pleased to have this item available. I have a lot in town that has a huge sycamore tree that dumps big leaves on my lot and a lake home that has approximately 1 acre covered with black jacks(black oaks). I had read all of the reviews and had formulated some work arounds before the unit came. With a little ingenuity this thing works great. I actually got close to the 10:1 mulch ratio. It is great to not have to drag all those bags around. I put my trash can on a two wheel hand truck and strapped the hose to the highest point on the two wheeler. The hose doesn't kink and I don't get the netting filling up with leaves around the edges of the trash can. The only problem I have with the unit is that the connection between the tubing and the vacuum keeps coming off. The solution: duck tape and it fixed the problem.
