I've got his older brother:




Our yard is only 1/4 acre, but it's surrounded by (our) fully mature hardwoods so it gets 1 foot deep in leaves. This thing saves soooo much time. The vacuum hose is the best. I've had it about 5 years, and my only complaint is the bag. It's pretty fine and clogs easily from the leaf dust. I use a small pressure washer to clean the bag at the end of the day, or it losses suction over time.

Believe it or not, mine works better when the leaves are slightly wet, because they don't create as much dust which clogs the bag.

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years.
