Review: It's okay. If you can get it a good price then worthwhile. I bought one last year for £38 and then this one now for £55 (read on for the reason why) Good points - mulches really well and quite effective as a leaf blower and sucker. Like any of these devices if you use them when it is a bit wet, they can get clogged up with mud so expect to do a bit of cleaning from time to time. This leads on to the negatives... Bad points - The model you get is not the model that is shown in the photo (I have attached to this review) and currently on Amazon's listing (Nov 2017) and (bizarrely) Flymo's website too. It DOES NOT have the quick change facility where you can swap easily from the vacuum to blower. It does have what they call a 'toolless' change but it does require undoing a screw (albeit with a thumbturn) and trying to locate the accessory (suction pipe or blower grill) on to a threaded connection. This is not difficult but it is a faff as you have to twist a giant tube holding the heavy body still. On the model I bought last year which looks like the picture attached, you released one by just unclipping it and then pulled down the blower grill (which you can see doubles up as the handle). As the blower grill is permanently attached you cannot lose it. On the new model it is a separate item. I will probably put it 'safe' in my shed somewhere and then spend half an hour looking for it next time I need it. A backwards step in design and naughty to show the old model on their current adverts. Note, the other photos DO represent the correct model. Hopefully by the time you read this, Amazon will have deleted the incorrect image (I writing to them next). Second negative, my collection bag was eaten by some mice in my shed (anecdotally this seems quite common). I thought 'annoying' but fine, I'll buy a new one. Quick check on Amazon, Ebay, other sites and Flymo's official spares show and a replacement one costs between £55 and £67. So yes, you guessed it, I ended up buying a new PowerVac instead. I now have one for blowing leaves and one for suction so the change issue is not such a problem. However, it is a disgraceful rip off for Flymo to charge anything near that price for the bag and so wasteful that you cannot economically repair something so simple. If Amazon sell the whole thing for £50 or so, Flymo must make them for at least half that cost so what is the real price of the bag - £2-£3 (or maybe it is gold plated on the lining?). Sell it for a £10 and people will buy spares! I would. So protect your bag!!!!
