Amazon.com Product Description:
The Black & Decker Leaf Hog Electric Blower/Vacuum adds versatility and power to your tool collection. As a blower, the Leaf Hog can generate up to 240-mph air speed to clear matted leaves or sweep hard surfaces. Switch to the vacuum function, and the mulching mechanism devours and deposits up to 16 bags' worth of debris into the included rear bag.
Clears All Types of Debris
Sweep your patio, workshop, or walkway clean, or use the 240-mph air speed to make quick work of wet, matted leaves in your yard. The Leaf Hog has a dual-speed switch to decrease air flow when you're working around delicate flower beds, patio furniture, or automobiles in your garage.
Gather and Mulch Leaves and Trimmings
The Leaf Hog converts easily to a 385 CFM lawn vacuum when you want to collect loose leaves, twigs, and grass clippings. The internal mulching mechanism grinds everything down, compressing as much as 16 bags of debris down to one. The included bag detaches easily to empty your mulch in flower beds, gardens, or compost piles.
Lightweight for Comfortable, All-Day Use
An included shoulder strap adds extra support when you're using the Leaf Hog. Weighing in at just 8.1 pounds makes the blower/vacuum light enough for anyone to use for extended periods.
Low Noise Levels from the Environmentally Friendly Motor
Power comes from a 12 Amp motor than runs on electricity--no need to mix oil and gasoline when you're ready to work. The electric motor greatly reduces the roar that's common with gasoline blowers to protect your hearing and reducing noise pollution.
The Electric Leaf Hog Blower/Vacuum is covered by a two-year warranty.

- As a blower it's good, as a vaccuum it SUCKS
I bought it as a vaccuum to reach into the tight spaces i couldn't get to with a rake or blower.It simply does not work.The intake tube constantly clogs.Even if the leaves are totally dry it sucks them up so slow that it just seems like a waste of time.And on the rare occassion when it does work the bag fills up in 2 seconds.The thing is heavy too!! I only use it as a blower now.It's an ok blower.

- Great product
The price was great and the product lived up to its advertising.Thanks to everyone who rated this product.You're opinions helped me make a good decision.

- Very powerful
This product is before for my height 5'4" and light enough for me to carry around.It has very deep powerful blowing action that actually the yard looked aerated when I got done.

- Works Great
I was actually surprised by how good this blower/vacuum works.It is as powerful as a gas blower and the bother of dealing with a cord is offset by less noise and not having to deal with mixed gas.The vacuum works great too and it came with about a 15 gallon bag. Switching from blowing to vacuuming is a snap too. If you can reach everywhere you need to with a 100' cord, then I would recommend the LH4500

- Works well, but some substantial drawbacks
I wanted to love this Leaf Hog.For the first day I owned it, I did love it.The honeymoon is now over though, and not everything is quite as rosy as I thought.Here's where we stand:
Pros:
-----
1) Mulches leaves very effectively
2) No significant problems with clogging
3) Lightweight, easy to maneuver
4) Easy to switch between blower/vacuum
5) Inexpensive
I primarily bought this to help me turn leaves into leaf mulch.It does that ... Read More
