BAD DEAL!!!:
MAKITA HANDHELD BLOWER THIS CAME WITH OUT BATTERIES. YES, IF I READ CLOSER I WOULD HAVE SEEN THAT NO BATTRIES WERE INCLUDED. BUT, MOST OF THESE KIND OF THINGS COME WITH BATTRIES.
THEN!!! THEN!!! YOU DO NOT OFFER TO SELL THE BATTRIES THAT GO WITH IT. I HAVE TO FIND A MAKITA DEALER TO BUY THEM. WHO WANTS TO SPEND THAT MUCH TIME DOING THAT.
IN THE FUTURE QUIT PLAYING GAME AND SELL WITH BATTERIES.

A Good Tool-We Like It.:
This is a good tool for cleaning up the patio in the morning or blowing dry leaves etc. off of a hard surface. Its powerful enough! For fall cleanup, work in the spring or in wet conditions get a bigger plug-in unit. The vacuum works on smaller stuff. Overall we are very pleased with the convenience it offers and it works well. If this unit wears out, and it will we will get another one.
I love it!:
I bought it because on one job I was there on a ladder, trying to blow the sawdust off an opera balcony (very tiny width) by going Puff!, Puff!. This did not work well. Neither did my brush. I finally got a can of air, which did not work very well. (Many repair jobs are all cordless, no air compressor - which would have worked well.) This blower would have been great. I love it! It's cute, which is nice, but I love it 'cause it blows stuff. It works very well blowing stuff. Got a three position switch... more info
Good quick set up blower - no good vacuum:
The blower portion works real well. The hose could be longer so as to not have to stoop at times. An extention wand would be great. The vacuum is useless since the impeller is blocked by a non-removable guard under the intake by a plastic cross. One small leaf blocked it immediately. I laughed at the size when I saw it but it works good for small quick jobs.
