Not sure if it’s a bargain, time will tell, had to replace my old Bosch blower vac which Shite itself last month. Bought a Ferrex blower vac at Aldi this week for $40, used it this morning, pretty good for the money, variable speed, 8000 to14000 rpm, lightweight, vac bag doesn’t let dust and Shit thru but not sure how long it will last, nice fine mulch of leaves, suitable for composting.
