Good quick set up blower - no good vacuum:

The blower portion works real well. The hose could be longer so as to not have to stoop at times. An extention wand would be great.

What a disappointment:

I am a contractor who really needs a small cordless vacuum and blower. I already have many corded and cordless 18v Makita tools, so I was really looking forward to this arriving. There is a really aweful reason why you only ever see the photo of this set up in blower configuration. It's because that is all it is any good for. To convert it to a vacuum you have to put the dust bag on the front in place of the nozzle, then you put the nozzle on the side of the maching sticking out at 90 degrees from the... more info
