Frequently Answered Questions

A: The answer depends on your property and personal preferences. If you currently enjoy mowing your lawn with a riding tractor, or if you're planning to get a rider, one of our Tow-Behind models may be ideal. These leaf collection machines work very fast and cover large areas quickly. Their extra large capacities mean you can work longer without having to empty collected debris. And with a 10:1 reduction they shred material into a very fine mulch. Plus, with a Tow-Behind Leaf and Lawn Vacuum, you can work in ride-on comfort!

The Walk-Behind Leaf and Lawn Vacuum is a great choice if you don't own a riding tractor...or if you simply prefer to walk while you work. The Walk-Behind machines are perfect for leaf collection in highly landscaped areas. They can easily get into places where a rider and Tow-Behind unit simply wouldn't fit. Steep slopes (up to 20°) – where you wouldn't take a rider – are also better-suited to a Walk-Behind model. Finally, if your yard is on the smaller side, a Walk-Behind model may be all the machine you need.
