Amazingly, my first negative review never showed up here. I'll try again.
When working, this product is terrific. I have over 1 acre of wooded property and it does a great job. The assembly is every bit as difficult as everyone else here has said. The instructions when you get to the cover are worse than useless.
I'm skeptical of the reviews that say what used to take 2 weeks now takes 2 hours -- because this vac does clog easily, so you can't exactly let every last leaf fall before you get started. I've used this every weekend for a few hours for several weekends in a row. After about 8 hours of total use, the axle snapped into 2 pieces.

You'll get done faster with fewer stops with a capacity 3 times larger than a 3 bin bagger. The Monster Vac has a unique retractable top creating a wide opening for unloading. The retractable top is great to be able to use the cart for hauling purposes too.
