Very easy to add on, works better than I expected.  I used to pick up leaves in the fall with a pull behind lawn sweeper; that was a BIG chore ( I have about two acres for a lawn) but now it's not a big deal.  I just set my deck to the highest setting so I don't also mow grass, and boom,  I have...
