Tackle big clean-up jobs the right way with this powerful blower vac. A variable speed 12 Amp motor lets you select from an infinite variety of speeds between 112 mph and 235 mph. This means that you can use low speeds to clear off hard surfaces and clean up tight areas without making a mess and without sacrificing the blower's high-speed functionality. Air Speed and Air Volume to Get Yard Jobs Done
Unlike some manufacturers, who simply reduce the size of their blower nozzles to achieve higher air speed ratings without increasing the practical value of their tools, Toro gives this blower vac the ability to balance between air speed (measured in mph) and air volume (measured in cfm) to ensure maximum power and performance. This Ultra blower vac offers air speeds up to 235 mph and air volume up to 255 cfm, allowing you to move a substantial volume of leaves and debris with ease. 3-in-1 Versatility Makes Managing Tasks Easy
A convenient quick-release latch lets you convert your blower into a vacuum in seconds without any tools, while a metal impeller makes it easy to mulch debris. The magnesium serrated metal blades on the impeller shred leaves and other unwanted debris into a fine mulch that you can use around your lawn and garden, saving money and recycling important nutrients. It also makes it easy to dispose of unwanted yard waste, since the impeller can reduce 16 bags’ worth of leaves to one bag. Clean and Efficient with Electric Power
Compared with gas blowers, electric blowers are quieter, more eco-friendly, and require less maintenance. They start up instantly without requiring you to master a finicky pull cord. There's no messy gas-oil mixture to worry about, and you don't have to contend with noxious fumes to get a job done. This high-powered blower also weighs in at a very manageable 7.5 pounds, making it easy on your back. This blower/vac is backed by a full two-year warranty. What's in the Box

 A fantastic blower vacuum!! November 19, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a fantastic product. I purchased this unit back in April/2008 for $70.00 on Amazon. What a unit. I cannot say one negative thing about it.I have a typical suburban yard(about 1/3 acre with a few trees dropping leaves in the fall).
In the spring and summer, as a blower this unit has no peer. Although it is corded, that is a very minor inconvenience compared to the sterling performance as a blower that this unit is capable of.
In the fall, as a vacuum and mulcher it is great! When used properly, almost never clogs and even if it does clog, it self clears after 10-20 seconds.
If you purchase this unit and use it according to instructions, you will do nothing but smile with regard to price, performance and reliability.

LOTS of Power November 17, 2008
All I can say is "WOW!" After reading about this blower/vacuum in Consumer Reports, and how well it worked, I decided to purchase it. I searched all over the internet, but found that Amazon's "amazing" price of just under $70 was unbeatable. That included free shipping. My blower/vac arrived the next day. Lucky me! Anyhow, It has PLENTY of power. Matter of fact, it has more power than the gas powered backpack blower I had, which pleasantly surprised me. I used the Toro to clean my gutters, and blow and vacuum my leaves, and it did all 3 jobs easily. Again, I'm "blown away" with the amount of power it has. The only "inconvenience" is having to pull an extension cord around with it, but you can solve that by buying the longest extension cord you can find. You can't go wrong purchasing this blower/vacuum. The price is right, and it works well. I wish I could rate it 6 stars instead of 5!
 Toro Ultra 12 Amp Variable Speed Blower w/Metal Impellar November 17, 2008
I recently purchased the Toro Ultra after owning a gas powered unit. The gas unit I had lasted about three seasons and repairs were going to cost about as much as buying new. I used the Toro right after receiving it, and I am very pleased. The only drawback to electric is having to drag around the cord, but the unit operates noticably stronger than my old gas blower with no required maintenance. Also the metal impellar is a nice feature.
Performs as expected - the best non-gas blower/vac available November 16, 2008
This blower/vac has two features that make it the best available:
1. It uses a metal grinding/chopping impeller which doesn't wear out.
2. It has an infinitely variable blower velocity able to adjust to the conditions at hand.
