This electric blower vac is uncomplicated to assemble and we found it very easy to switch between blowing and vacuuming modes. The on switch locks into position and there is no trigger switch to hold. It is good at blowing and very good at sucking leaves and blossom. The patio head attachment is only really useful if the patio area is totally flat and the white collecting bag will discolour easily.

This model is very easy to assemble and is compact in design. The on switch is comfortable to use at first but a strain to keep pushed on all the time. It is excellent at shredding. The collection bag has no zip for easy access to leaves.

This is a lightweight and easy to use model with a separate blower. It vibrates quite a lot during use when vacuuming and blowing. The vacuuming tube is quite long and awkward to use especially on full power as there are no wheels to help support weight.

This model is ideal for a large garden. It is excellent as a blower, lightweight and easy to use. The nozzle is small enough to get around the bottom of bushes etc. We found it awkward to change over to the vacuum as pressure is required to attach the separate tube. It vibrates quite a bit during use. There is no carrying strap or wheels making it uncomfortable when vacuuming.
