39087 Draper Gas Leaf Blower And Leaf Vacuum Combo

We took a look at this draper combo gas leaf blower with leaf vacuum and mulcher. It offers good favorability with just its combination of garden power tools (Gas leaf blower, leaf vacuum, leaf mulcher). However let’s see the main features associated with this leaf blower:

• Nozzle wheel for support and allows more manoeuvring and decreasing burdensome weight.
• 40l intake bag to gather leafs after they have been mulched.
• Adjustable air flow setting
• Includes adjustable shoulder strap

So it offers a good expectation for ease of use. When we tried it out we found straight away that it is heavy…we believe without the 40l bag full it would weigh around 7kg! So really if you don’t have the strength this model wouldn’t be great for long use and even then it could feel uncomfortable. However it does include an adjustable shoulder strap that can be used to uplift some of that uncomfortable feeling. The strap is not great though it is rather large and design is not too great either…

So next how does it deliver on leaves? Firstly we tried the leaf blower for which did a great job, it managed to effectively move the leaves whether wet, damp or dry so we found no negatives there. The leaf vacuum however did not have the best of power for sucking up the leaves and well with the wet leaves it did struggle a little. The mulcher seem to work fine with the leaves although the bag really isn’t designed great, namely the zip…We found that after filling the bag it put considerable weight on the bag and the zip did not seem to hold itself well as it was stretching and would not last too long.

Customer Experiences

Research on the 39087 Draper Gas Leaf Blower notified us of positive and negative factors:

Negatives
• The leaf blower was heavy
• Bad design for the 40l intake bag, especially the zip as it broken not only once
• Bad power on the leaf vacuum, struggled with wet leaves
• Bad should strap, it broke within only a few uses
• Not too quiet, protective headwear was necessarily

Positives
• Offers not only a leaf blower feature but leaf vacuum and mulcher
• Powerful blow speed and did a great job
• Durable, after heavy use still works great

Our Conclusion

Combination of leaf blower and vacuum with its low reasonable price makes it a good purchase. It delivers well as only a leaf blower although it is not just that an the leaf vacuum lets it down. The leaf vacuum struggles on some wet/damp leaves and is not very powerful thought it did work on dry leaves well just not powerful. It bad accessories also lets it down with shoulder strap and intake bag although is a good feature to have.
