- This is the Craftsman 12amp corded leaf blower, vacuum and mulcher and man do I love it! Like many of you, I hate leaves. Craftsman has made this very user friendly and does an incredible job at what its supposed to do. I'll only be using this as a vacuum/mulcher, but I'm sure it does just as good of a job as a blower. For $79, you can't go wrong!

LOVED this Craftsman we bought about 10+ yrs ago until it finally died last year. We, and neighbors, have HUGE oak & maple trees with a mountain of leaves in spring & fall. We now have a BIG Stihl backpack blower, but I do miss this blower that sucks. Will prob get another since I see that Craftsman is still making it. Thx for posting
Glad it worked well for you for So long!
Definitely considering this leaf blower sooner then not this spring cause I have a ton of leaves out back and on my back patio, my current blower is a toro power vac with a 2 stroke motor but it’s old and too heavy for me to use, so I need something a ton lighter but with powerful operational performance, thank you so much for the review. Was very helpful.
You'll love it!
great thx, looks like it did really well for you. I’m super impressed with that video of that leaf vacuum
@@user-wz2qz5nn6z it's so handy to have!
I purchased one New Years Day 2023 and just used it again today. Works great! Cool beard!
Awesome! Thanks!!
Epic beard.
Yeah just picked this up. Completely satisfied first use. No joke a late Mother' Day gift as my mom food-supplies the entire neighborhood wildlife lol, so many shells.
Hahaha glad your happy with it! Mines still chugging along with no problems!
Ha! Made me look! I like your review. Thanks!
Hahaha I thought the title would have brought more
i bought he same brand vacuum what he had, i love my craftsman vacuum ,pick up leaf's big time ,the blower is very good also, love the product
I wasted an hour browsing all sorts of battery blowers like "ok 200mph for 300$ and batteries that ill never use for another tool or will go bad and need replacement for like 100$",
Went out and checked my 30 year old blower that finally died on me and it said 220 mph 12amp. This is the closest thing, craftsman a nice trusted brand, and the vacuum part seems cool for those corners / up against the wall when I cant get any angle to blow them out.
Slight electrical hazard @3:55 lol , just a smidge :)
Hahahaha
Not the review I was expecting. Thanks!
Hahahaha the title doesn't lie!
The best garden tools are corded, they are lighter with more power. unless the tool constantly used the batteries will deteriorate from sitting around. Batteries are not the future.
We shall see
@@thecarplumbtrician We shall, China doesn't mow lawns or do lawn care in any way. They don't buy their own crap. Why should anyone else?
@@fraudsarentfriends4717 hahaha
ryobi came out with a cordless version on their 40V lineup. if you just use it at home and not for a company, ryobi 40v is a solid outdoor choice for your home
Does it act as a vacuum?
Thank you.
Anytime!
that was a very good demonstration , i bought one but havent tried it yet , i have the same leaves and ground you have and i think it will work great thanks bud
Raking into a pile then sucking up seems to work really well!
nice vid, v helpful
Thank you! It's my favorite yard work tool, feel like a Ghostbuster for leaves haha
I just bought one, do you need a special extension cord for it?
Nope!
My husband’s stopped working with the bag on. It work without the bag. You have any tips to make it work?
@cathybolton5852 that's odd.. let melook into mine
@@thecarplumbtrician thank you
Had mine for 2 years worked great took it out today and plugged it in and nothing. What do you think is wrong
Hmmm is it a cord you know works?
When switching back to using just the blower without the vacuum attachment make sure the black bottom cover is twisted into its own lock position after being snapped back into place.
Does craftsman not offer their lifetime warranty on these or was that just for their hand tools?
Just hand tools I believe
I'm pretty certain that the gravel it's sucking up isn't good for the fan blade.
🤣 not advised to suck up gravel
I bet if you blew the leaves to one or two areas, the stones would be less likely to worry about?
Thats what I do now wqy better haha
I know this is now an older review buuut.... any chance anyone is aware of a replacement metal impeller blade for this? The one it comes with is "very hard plastic" (as you called out in your review), and it would be really totally rad if there were a metal one we could thrown in there to really pulverize the leaves/twigs it sucks up. Thanks!
That would be an awesome mod!
Post a photo and dimensions of the blade and I may be able to make one
@@martik778 ok!
the one i have has a platic blade , but if its just for leaves i aint gonna worry about it
Have you ever used the gas version? Im thinking about purchasing it.
I haven't but I'm sure it would be great! This thing hasn't let me down yet!!
The gravel that is being sucked in will eventually ruin the impeller. The blades will get chipped and rounded.
I know, I make piles now on the patio
Why did you put that it sucks in the title or was it a pun I’m just realizing typing this text confused why you said it sucks
It was a pun, because it sucks as well as blows hahaha
I will never again buy another crap’sman tool again. I bought this particular blower. Blew the leaves just fine. Then went to set up the vacuum feature and it stopped working altogether. Just going to have to spend some extra dollars on a DeWalt next time.
I hear alot of these don't work but still haven't had a problem with mine. That sucks
@@thecarplumbtrician @christoclean71 Yes, I just bought one fresh out the box and haven't used it yet but am seeing so many horror stories about it that I am thinking about returning it. What are you hearing people are gravitating to as a replacement?
@@maverickofsouth4534 I still haven't had a problem with mine. Maybe I got lucky haha
Just plugged mine in for first time and nothing….will not run…
Really? Cord ok?
@@thecarplumbtrician cord was fine…my other one, a sunjoe, works just fine. Amazon sent me a replacement and I plugged it in and it works!! So we’ll see how it goes…
@@fedupwitumboth bunch of bad ones out there guess!
makita makes a cordless version
Really?! Any good?? Might he my first blue purchase!!!
You become dedicated to the line of cordless. Corded is superior 80% of the time. Far more current.
But also remember, a standard household outlet is 1800 to 2400 watts. Literally the most HP you can draw is 3.25 HP.
7:01 ABS
Seems harder then ABS
Sucked not even a full bag... made a grinding noise just like in ur vid but mine shut off and never turned back on.
That sucks. Did you bring it back?
No. I think it tripped a breaker somewhere. So I'm trying to track that down. The blower/vac works fine on other outlets
I posted that about an hour after it stopped working
@@TylerGodwin88 Being 12 amp load, if you have anything else tied to & on, on that branch the CB will trip if 15amp.
I know, 4 months ago. But, hey, people still remember Troy 4 thousand years later lol
Mine wouldn't work out of the box
Really?! May be a lemon, mine works great!
Same! Done with craftsman for good.
@@theylive2749 that sucks! I wonder now when mine will die
@@thecarplumbtrician
Nearly everything coming out from factories has been deficient. These idiots think it is exclusively Craftsmans. Nah. Been like this since the Plannedemic began. Spent a whole day looking for bathtubs not damaged. 1 of every 5 luminaires I try to install have a defect. We in the trades are being fucked over PR wise. Big box store employees are harassed daily.
@@justtime6736 tell me about it. Been trying to get my hands on pine bi fold doors for weeks. These use to be over flowing on shelves. Wood shortage?
So whats up with the title?
It's a vacuum too
Dude was sucking in rocks.
Told you it sucks!
@@thecarplumbtricianwell your putting the tip close to the ground ofc your going to pick up dirt you need to rake or blow all the leaves into a pile on concrete if your near concrete than suck it up
