Factory Reconditioned Weed Eater FeatherLite FL1500LE 25cc 2-Stroke 150 MPH Gas Powered Blower

The Weed Eater Featherlite blower is lightweight and features a vibration-reducing handle so it is comfortable at any angle of use. Convenient two-speed throttle.
Customer Review: Best Blower!!!
I am 11 and this is what I think. I just got a refurbished one of these and it works Great!. I would not recommend this to everyday users or people that handle large amounts of wet leaves. For the $ this is a lot of bang for you buck.
Customer Review: This Blower blows!
I'm with the few reviews that I have seen that mention the pull-string malfunctioning. I've used mine 2-3 times before the pull-string stopped going in. I just came back from my garage where I tried to figure out how to fix it but it has so many different types of screws and in hard to get places that I gave up and decided it wasn't worth the effort. This blower blows. It was tough to start but that was never an issue, it simply failed and only after a few uses. worthless garbage.

Black & Decker BV2500 12-AMP Electric Blower/Vacuum/Mulcher

Powerful, efficient, and easy-to-use, this three-in-one blower, vacuum, and mulcher helps clear off your yard, patio, deck, and walkways--even wet leaves and twigs are no match for this heavy-duty tool. Operation is simple: to switch from blowing to vacuum mode, just press the push-button. And you'll never have to worry about clogs slowing you down, thanks to the vacuum's Vortex system. Additionally, the BV2500 condenses 10 bags of raked leaves into just one bag of mulched leaves and works quietly, making yard work more pleasant. For added peace of mind, it comes with a 2-year warranty.
Customer Review: Excellent tool for the money
Although my BV2500 has developed the major problem cited in many reviews,it took more than 10 years of high volume leaf vacuuming before it failed. Had 1/2 acre with many trees (60 plus) now have 1/3 acre with several. It did as good a job as any homeowner line of tools could be expected to. No tears in the shoulder bag although 99% of the time I use the leaf collection system and no noticable impeller wear (of course I didn't try to vacuum any items that it wasn't intended for (rocks large twigs etc.), Silly old me, I try to use a tool for what it is intended (leaves). Will I buy another? You bet I just ordered one today, and if it only lasts several years I'm still way ahead, at $54.00 Amazon) no tax and free delivery. Use it for what it is and take care of it as you would all your other tools.
Customer Review: Mulching? What mulching?
Earlier reviews complained about difficulty in finding a button for mulching. I guess they were right; I couldn't find one. The instructions just say the leaves will be mulched as they go through the impeller. After vacuuming a bunch of leaves and dumping them into a recycle bin, I couldn't really see any evidence of mulching. The blower and vacuum work very well, however. Don't make the mistake of trying to vacuum leaves from loose dirt; you'll suck up a lot of dirt. Blow the leaves into a pile and then vacuum them. Still, I like this tool. It's much quieter and easier to use than my gas blower.
