I have many trees and cannot use this behind the mower as the hose gets in the way, and the cart can be unstable on unlevel ground. The hose seems to clog quite often, requiring the clamp to be removed and the hose cleaned out by hand. I do have a lot of pine straw and maybe it might work better on leaves. It will take you a day to put together, as the only part that does not have to be put together piece by piece is the engine (although you do have to attach it to the cart with somewhat vague instructions). I ordered the optional hose and 6 weeks later it is still on backorder.
Craftsman 8.75 Torque Rating (206cc) Hard Top Chipper Vac is not recommended by TexasAnonymous
The Craftsman Chipper Vac makes clean up fast and easy pulling leaves, grass, pine needles, acorns, pine cones or other debris from the mower deck into the collector with the powerful 80 MPH vacuum. You'll get done faster with fewer stops with a capacity 3 times larger than a 3 bin bagger. The Chipper Vac has a hard plastic top, metal sides, and rear door to reduce dust and increase air flow. The cart axle is wider than traditional tractor hauling carts to provide better stability when towing.
