I got this as a gift when I wanted a shop vac. It worked great as a vaccuum and then I accidentally discovered that it also had a blower capability. That was a wonderful discovery! When I am working in my shop, I don't want to use my gas blower because the gas fumes are too potent. Now I have the ability to blow everything off and suck it up. Well worth buying. I have had no problems with it.

Insert the hose into the rear blowing port and the vac doubles as a 170 mph lawn/leaf blower, perfect for removing leaves from the yard, driveway or garage. A 20 ft. power cord and flexible 7 ft.
