Each year, more and more homeowners discover what professional landscapers have known for decades: You can save a lot of time --and your aching back--by trading in your rake for a gas-powered leaf blower. If you're ready to make the move, consider the Troy-Bilt TB310QS: a versatile leaf blower that converts to a leaf vacuum at the flip of a lever. This portable unit is specifically designed for clearing leaves from small- to medium-sized yards. The TB310QS is driven by a 31-cubic-centimeter gas engine that's equipped with an easy-pull spring-assist starting system. The blower creates hurricane-force winds up to 165 miles per hour; that's powerful enough to blast away even damp, matted leaves. Flip the QuickShift lever to switch from blower mode to vacuum.
The 13.5-pound unit features a mulching impeller blade that shreds leaves--reducing them at a 10-to-1 ratio--and shoots them into the convenient collection bag. The zippered cloth bag holds about 3/4 of a bushel, and it can be emptied without removing it from the blower.
Besides clearing leaves from the lawn, the TB310QS can be used to remove debris from decks, patios and sidewalks. The powerful engine on this Troy-Bilt leaf blower/vacuum is rather loud, so it's advisable to wear hearing protection during use.--Joseph Truini

Customer Review: Warren, Ohio
I love it. It's a little heavy but its great for cleaning everything. It converts to a blower and back in less than a second.
Customer Review: Pleased with the product
I really like this blower, very reliable so far. The only negative is that I was hoping the bag was a little bigger as big loads of leaves will require a lot of dumping. Works great for getting leaves out of tight places without blowing them everywhere.
