BV5600 already had a recall on it because of a laceration hazard posed by the bottom lid coming undone. According to Doug, it is not a good idea to use it. As a result, if you do not get the new revised, better, improved, lite, less filling and low-pressure filling, it is possible for you to lose fingers The cal lid cover was provided by B &amp H for free To replace the plastic zipper I had to have my tailor sew one in with a metal zipper after returning three bags. I purchased the blower/vacuum unit for $49 at Harbor Freight. However, two years later the impeller of the plastic had broken. The brittleness set in, I suppose.
Despite the fact that it is electrical, I love mine. Could it be that your reader has an issue with a battery-operated model?
There is also a bag included in the price. Due to the manufacture's immediate change in next year's model, the model is likely to change soon. Besides the bags I purchased, I also bought two more.

It wasn't the cheapest one I found in the area, but I spent $10 on it anyway. I knew I was being taken advantage of the instant the item showed up because I wasn't 100% thrilled with the purchase. The first thing that caught my eye was that. After opening it and checking the inside to make sure all parts were there and not used (there was no grass and so on), I decided to put it to the test today (it arrived yesterday). I am really upset because it's new and has obviously Thus, I was very upset by that. As for the second issue, it was when it was used. It seems like a lot of people are having power problems and blowing breakers at this moment. My feelings are very hurt and because of the warped sucker, it basically leaks a vacuum. My math tells me I spent almost 70 dollars on something that I didn't think was worth 40 bucks. The item is in bad shape and I'd like to return it but I already damaged it during the first My initial reaction was to buy this, I know black n Decker is a name brand, but it is a cheap name brand, but I've used black n Decker before without any problems, so I guess it has everything to do with all the cheap mass production nowadays.
In my role as a small business owner, I - The frame is too large, frayed Having never used a yard vacuum before, I wondered if I was getting too ambitious, but this one turned out to be great. assemble (except for the vacuum tube to motor connection, where I had to apply WD-40 I did not feel the assembled machine to be heavy at all during the 15-minute test I was delighted to find that it was easily maneuverable and was well balanced. The cord did not cause any issues as I had expected. At low speed, the vacuum was able to pick up the leaves and pea gravel without sucking them in. My only complaint is that the cloth bag released a great deal of fine dust, so next time I'll try using a plastic bag instead, unless that As for the affordable price, I think it was well worth it, as sweeping leaves from tight spaces with a traditional broom takes a long time, while BV3600 makes it a breeze.
The rake is used for both clearing clippings from the sidewalks and driveway, as well as clearing The blower is a great tool for blowing debris away. It has a lot of power and even removed grass clippings that had been rained on for some time, dried out, and adhered to It's loud, but not in an uncomfortable way. in this blower is plastic, and while I was looking through the pile of leaves I saw a lot of small twigs. The twigs make an awful sound when they hit the blades when it sucks them in, but it never made a stop or slow down. In spite of the fact that 100% of the weight is in the orange area seen in the pictures, changing from blower to vacuum is a little cumbersome. With as long as you are doing it on a table, bench, car trunk, etc. , it's rather manageable. I thought it would make sense because it's a gas or oilless device, but it's really nice not to have to worry about it. In comparison, I wouldn't feel as comfortable using a lawnmower for this task, but for this, this is perfect.
I'm also excited to use this in the winter since we get a lot of dusty, dry snow here. It will prevent the ice patches that result from using the blower.
My four of these over the past 11 years have lasted almost as long as these youtube videos. Vacuum function has a number of cons. We recently used a Toro leaf vacuum that was comparable with a longer, wider intake tube and that didn't blow exhaust into our faces while using it. As compared to Black and Decker, it was lighter. However, it has two disadvantages its power is slightly lower than the B, and its portability is slightly limited.
The lawn/yard clippings don't get picked up on a weekly basis at my new house. The leaves from 4 trees caused me a dilemma when I was trying to decide what to do with them. Using my composter, it can hold so much but it does not have a lot of space. I bought a bunch of bags, but I then had to figure out how to dispose of them. Why don't our local dumps accept green waste? (What the what? This was the last item I decided to buy before the fall season ended. It was excellent. Often, mulched plants take up only a fraction of the space they once occupied. Despite our efforts, we bagged the mulched leaves and found a dump that would accept them. I am 70 years old, and I have no problem handling it since it's so light. There is so much more strength and efficiency in the blower portion of this one than I had with The process of cleaning up is simple and quick.
