good overall machine:
I don't expect much from multipurpose tools-this one was a pleasant surprise. Went together easily, appears to be well made. Blower does a good job, though not quite up to the bigger gas powered blowers. Vacuum was better than i expected.

JUST RIGHT:
This model is exactly what i was hoping for.While not as powerful as the 12 amp model, It gets the job done while being a bit lighter in the weight department which is what i was looking for.This makes it more maneuverable for me & the wife likes it also.

Would buy it again.
