Convert from blower to vacuum without tools. | 
The metal impeller shreds leaves into a mulch. | 
The impeller can reduce up to 16 bags' worth of waste to one bag. | Match the Power to the Task for Better Results
Tackle big clean-up jobs the right way with this powerful blower vac. A variable speed 12 Amp motor lets you select from an infinite variety of speeds between 112 mph and 235 mph. This means that you can use low speeds to clear off hard surfaces and clean up tight areas without making a mess and without sacrificing the blower's high-speed functionality. Air Speed and Air Volume to Get Yard Jobs Done
Unlike some manufacturers, who simply reduce the size of their blower nozzles to achieve higher air speed ratings without increasing the practical value of their tools, Toro gives this blower vac the ability to balance between air speed (measured in mph) and air volume (measured in cfm) to ensure maximum power and performance. This Ultra blower vac offers air speeds up to 235 mph and air volume up to 255 cfm, allowing you to move a substantial volume of leaves and debris with ease. 3-in-1 Versatility Makes Managing Tasks Easy
A convenient quick-release latch lets you convert your blower into a vacuum in seconds without any tools, while a metal impeller makes it easy to mulch debris. The magnesium serrated metal blades on the impeller shred leaves and other unwanted debris into a fine mulch that you can use around your lawn and garden, saving money and recycling important nutrients. It also makes it easy to dispose of unwanted yard waste, since the impeller can reduce 16 bags’ worth of leaves to one bag. Clean and Efficient with Electric Power
Compared with gas blowers, electric blowers are quieter, more eco-friendly, and require less maintenance. They start up instantly without requiring you to master a finicky pull cord. There's no messy gas-oil mixture to worry about, and you don't have to contend with noxious fumes to get a job done. This high-powered blower also weighs in at a very manageable 7.5 pounds, making it easy on your back. This blower/vac is backed by a full two-year warranty. What's in the Box
Power unit, blower tubes, vac tubes, vac bag, and operators manual.
Even a large yard is easy to clean up with this blower. |

 Excellent Blower, vacuum not so good ,,, September 3, 2010
Bill Shockey (Angels Camp, CA, US)
Excellent blower ... Vacuuming up leaves, not so good ?????? One thing I dislike about the vacuum portion is there is a LOT of dust that comes out of the collector bag when vacuuming (not good) ... Blower good ...
Vacuuming not so good ... With that in mind, I would recommend this product for its blower qualities ...
REVIEW TORO 51599 BLOWER/VACUUM September 3, 2010
M. J. Stanton (phoenix arizona)

I HAVE TWO MATURE DECIDUOUS TREES IN MY BACKYARD, HERE IN PHOENIX WE GET A NUMBER OF MONSOON STORMS WITH VERY STRONG WIND GUSTS, I DONT LIKE BLOWERS THEY JUST MOVE STUF AROUND IN MY OPINION AND CAN POLUTE THE AIR WITH DUST AND DEBRIS, SO I PURCHASED THIS TORO MACHINE FOR THE VACUUM. I HAVE USED IT 3 TIMES SO FAR, IT WORKS WELL, I AM SATISFIED, I THOUGHT THE PRICE WAS GOOD FOR WHAT YOU GET, THE QUALITY IS THERE. I USE IT MOSTLY FOR CONCRETE WALKWAYS AND DRIVEWAY, I REALY LIKE THE VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL WICH IS CONVENIENTLY PLACED, THE VACUUM IS POWERFUL AND I HAD NO TROUBLE CLEANING UP ALL THE LEAVES QUICKLY.
YES YOU DO HAVE TO MANIPULATE THE CORD, I FOUND THE BEST WAY IS TO WORK AWAY FROM THE OUTLET. EMPTYING THE BAG WAS EASY, I LIKE HOW THE IMPELER CHOPPED UP THE LEAVES, I USE THEM AS MULCH AROUND MY PLANTS.
MY ONLY GRIPE IS THE BAG WOULD BE EASIER TO WORK WITH IF IT WAS STRAPPED TO THE BACK LIKE A BACK PACK, TORO COULD EASILY MAKE A FLEXIBLE TUBE TO CONECT TO THE MACHINE. OVERALL I WOULD BUY THIS ITEM AGAIN. MJS.Toro 51599 Ultra 12 amp Variable-Speed Electric Blower/Vacuum with Metal Impeller
 Works well, very powerful August 29, 2010
A. Saunders (Virginia, USA)
Works well, seems to be pretty powerful. Not sure if the vacuum part is too great, it does tend to clog, but I have nothing to compare it to.
worth every penny August 24, 2010

This leaf blower is amazing. Super powerful, easy to use, very easy to put together and surprisingly, not obnoxiously loud. If you want to blow your leaves and trash into the neighbors yard, this is what you need. If not, you still need this machine if leaves drive you crazy. I have cottonwood trees that shed leaves every single day and I was sick & tired of raking and picking them up. After reading the reviews on this leaf blower, I ordered it from Amazon, got it very quickly and am extremely happy I did. Unless someone cuts down these annoying trees of mine, I will always have to deal with leaves and this amazing machine makes my life a little easier. Worth every penny.
 It worked the first time August 21, 2010

The first time I used this Toro electric blower it worked great although is nosier at higher speeds than expected. A week later when I tried to use it again nothing happened. When I called Toro they were very pleasant, and said they suspected a safety switch of some sort had stuck and if I shipped it back they would send me a new one in a few weeks. They do not pay for shipping so I am $22 poorer and back to using my B&D cordless while I wait for a replacement. Not a good intro to my first Toro.
