I have a Ryobi gas model I strap to my back that allows me to handle my yard in just a couple of hours. It used to take all day when I used a rake. And the rake seemed to always pull out too much grass.

My electric model sucks at blowing... *cue the rim-shot* In fact, it sucks so much I attached the back to it for vaccuming the leaves out from under the deck and other tight spaces I can't blow them out of.
