Toro’s latest blower vacuum is boasting their highest performance ever in the category. The Toro UltraPlus Blower Vac, model 51621 is a 3-in-1 yard tamer with blowing, vacuuming, and shredding capabilities.
Targeted at homeowners that don’t mind being attached to an extension cord, the Toro UltraPlus Blower Vac should save time. Different blower tube attachments optimize between simple debris movement and pile building. Switching to vacuum mode, the metal impeller works with Shredz-All Shred Ring to bring debris down to a 1/2″ size. Smaller pieces means that you can fit more debris in the bag and reduce the number of trips you make to the compost pile.
Some people may question going with an AC electric source over a lithium-ion battery or small gas engine. Our guys think otherwise though.
“At Pro Tool Reviews, we have spent a lot of time covering the growing lithium-ion outdoor power equipment (OPE) market. The new Toro UltraPlus Blower Vac is electric though. Considering it’s designed to blow, vacuum, and shred, that’s the best way to go with a tool in this class for homeowners. There are no gas emissions or start up problems and users don’t have to worry about run time issues associated with batteries.”
