Weed Eater Barracuda Electric Blower

Weed Eater Barracuda 2595 711369 12A Electric Blower/Vacuum
What we're looking for in a weed eater is the perfect balance of power and weight; we want a machine with enough juice to get the job done, yet light enough to tote about without straining either elbow or patience. We gave the Barracuda weed eater top marks for performance. With its 12 amp motor and two air speeds (125 and 195 mph), you'll never want for power, and its three-in-one versatility means it not only mulches weeds with a vengeance (as befits a machine called Barracuda), but it's a leaf blower and vacuum, as well. You can mulch debris at a 16:1 ratio into compost-ready material and then collect it in the large vacuum bag that's included. You can also clean your gutters with the gutter attachment (not included). As for the weight department, the Barracuda is moderate; though they call it lightweight, you're not going to want to spend hours using it. On the other hand, it's a durable, well-designed, effective and robust tool.

Seems fine

This seems to be a fine blower. Although I already had a blower, I bought this one because I wanted to buy the Weedeater Gutter Attachment to clean gutters and saw that a lot of people had problems connecting other blowers (especially ones that didn't have a round exit tube) to the Gutter Attachment. And I thought it couldn't hurt to have another blower - two of us could use blowers at the same time. But the Weedeater Gutter attachment turned out to be very unsatisfactory (that's a separate review), so I don't really need this particular blower now. But I can't hold this against the blower - it seems to be a fine blower.

Works great so far.

I was looking for a replacement for my Weed Eater blower that lasted 20 years. This appears to be identical to that one, except for some minor upgrades. No complaints.
