Leaving nothing behind for the rake to gather, Black & Decker’s LeafHog blower snorts out a whopping 230-mph blow-speed for rooting up wet, matted leaves, heavy piles of debris, and more. That’s right. That stubborn windrow of leaves hunkered down next to the fence line is no match for the LeafHog. Like a handheld hurricane, this baby keeps the leaves blowing fast, even as they pile up high against the friction of the fence line and in those down-sloping corners of the yard. No more scooping debris into awkward garbage bags either, this blower converts to a vacuum with the push of a button. An easy-empty bag design dumps mulched leaves quickly. And, an anti-clog mechanism resists clogging during mulching operations. Knowing that most blowers are so loud they overpower earplugs and cause headaches on extended jobs, Black & Decker hushed down the LeafHog with a low-noise design that operates at a maximum of 66 decibels. Ideal for clearing lawns, driveways, sidewalks, decks, and garages of leaves, grass clippings, and other debris, this blower also features a 10-to-1 mulch ratio that, for example, reduces 10 bags of raked leaves down to 1 bag of mulch for healthier lawns and gardens. Black & Decker covers this blower with a full, 2-year warranty. --Brian D. Olson

2Motor burnt up...lasted 2 years  Nov 15, 2009
This blower worked fine until the motor burnt up. I used the blower lightly for about 2 years. Never used the vacuum. The design is clunky. Made in China.

1Not even worth a full review  Nov 06, 2009
During first use B&D Leaf Hog was great. It had tons of power and was able to chew through piles of Oak leafs and small twigs. This lasted for a few uses. During the 4th use the engine started to smoke and caught on fire - not a great thing around dry leaves. Upon further research I found this to be a common issue with this unit. Heading to the store this year for a Toro.

1Unreliable  Oct 04, 2009
This equipment is poorly made. Even with proper care and storage per the manufacturer's instructions, the motor on mine failed (burned out) on the third use. I would have given it zero stars, but the system doesn't allow it.

5Great product  Mar 16, 2009
We have ours for almost 5 years and can not complain about it. It has been used very heavy and still runs like new. It is very user friendly and balanced much better than the Toro model we own, the Leaf Hogs power is greater than the Toro also, when they are supposed to be equal in.
I will buy another Leaf Hog when ours can no longer hold up, But I don't see that anytime soon.

2motor burns out  Nov 15, 2008
We have had 2 of these (from Lowe's), used primarily for vacuuming. Works pretty well on leaves and grass, but will not pick up acorns. Major complaint is that the motor burned out in about a year each time. I'm planning to buy a Toro 51599 instead.
