    Probably only useful if it can pick up the inevitable broken glass after an outdoor party. Otherwise I'd just use a good leaf blower and then pick it up

        No, the ozito I can only see being useful for glass. The blower vac is good for everything else

    Now that's a nice change from all those shitty leaf blowers. That are, BTW, banned in some countries, as they create more problems than they solve, esp. in urban areas.

  • rhino86 on 20/03/2024 - 15:00

    Another yard tool. Do we need it?
    What happened to the blower & vacuum models that exist. The one I have does mulch a bit.
    Cheaper than most shed vacuum's, hmm.. Yeah we gotta get a bigger shed for all the different yard tools. Thus we need a vacuum too.

    These suck-diddly-uck.

    I got given one from someone that didnt use it, used it once, realised how much of a PITA they are, and then proceeded to give it away to the next sucker a friend.

    Terrible at vacuuming stuff up, but great at dropping shit everywhere when you try and empty the little catcher they have provided.

    Get a wet-dry vac if you need to vacuum up stuff outdoors. Atleast they work and have a drum that is a lot easier to clean out than this contraption.

    • mrvaluepack on 20/03/2024 - 15:53

      did you try adjusting the wheels so that the suction mouthpiece is closer to the ground?

        Any closer and I may as well have used the dyson in the backyard.

        Then when you add the cord in - no way. Not worth the hassle. Thought it would be good around the pool area - worse.

      Super useful comment, I get tons of leaves and pine swords and shit from neighbouring trees, and the mower clippings, I’ve dreamt of a contraption like this clearing up - so good to know it’s not worth it.

    • zonbie on 20/03/2024 - 19:41

      My experience was exactly the same as your description, donbot … Exactly the same.

  • Jimbuscus on 20/03/2024 - 15:21

    If it was battery powered maybe, but I don't want to deal with an extension lead across all the trees and shrubs.

      But if it was battery powered then it's gonna be even more piss weak.

    If intended purpose is for picking up stuff off lawn only, your rotary mower would do a better job

      Says it works on paved surfaces, I guess it might be useful on synthetic grass?

  • Rick James18 on 20/03/2024 - 15:33

    Why does this exist?
    I just run the lawn mower on top of the grass to pick up and mulch the leaves

    • REDRUM on 20/03/2024 - 15:39

      I do this too! I may take things a step further though, I whipper snip first, then use the mower to pick up all the mess from the footpaths, gutters, etc… then start mowing.

    • John Doh on 20/03/2024 - 15:44

      Lawn mower still sends some leaves bits flying around if mowing on pavements to pick up leaves.

        At this stage you grab the blower not forgetting to rev it a dozen times before you start

      ah, you clearly dont live in a retiree heavy area. They mow the lawn each morning and then clean the lawn in the afternoon; after all that leaf might result in a broken hip or - worse - having to speak to their wife.

  • brianmau on 20/03/2024 - 15:38

    They're mediocre at best. Bought one used for $40 with a broken bag. Spent $20 for a new bag, used it a few times, decided it's no good (worse than an XU1 corded blower vac) then sold it for $80.

  • beach bum on 20/03/2024 - 16:03

    Perfect for the Batchelor pad

  • original15 on 20/03/2024 - 16:09

    Would consider something like this, have an oak tree that’s gotta be 30m tall that has begun the annual leave shed, keeps me busy easy weekend
    But that video isn’t inspiring.
    Typically use blower and pick up the piles (don’t want anyone associating me with the forum post a few weeks back). Tried the mower but have to empty the basket way too regularly. Don’t own a blower/vacuum double but assume bag size also a problem. Gunna research alternative lawn vacuums after seeing this 👍🏻 could even live with a corded version

    • rokufan on 20/03/2024 - 17:49

      If you have piles of leaves lay a tarp on the ground and rake or blow the leaves onto it and fold it up. That's how the pros do it.

  • Plug on 20/03/2024 - 16:18

    I've got one of these. Tbh they're not particularly good and you will sometimes need multiple passes over something before it finally gets sucked up. The nozzle can't really be adjusted low enough to the ground. I also have an old non-Ozito garden vac and tbh the old one works way better. Also the bag that comes with the Ozito is flimsy and known for being prone to rips and tears. Lastly the Ozito is 1600w and my old one is 720w and the old one sucks better.

  • dcash on 20/03/2024 - 19:53

    I had one of these (Victa Vac) when they first came out 30 years ago or whatever, and used it about twice. It's about 10 times as slow as just using a rake on grass, and probably even more so as compared to a leaf blower and broom on concrete. And that's before you try to empty the bag and get covered in dust!

  • PlaunsJanus on 20/03/2024 - 22:00

    1600w is a sad joke for an outdoor vacuum
    A good indoor vac is around 2000w
    Need something like 4500w
    Junk
