This shredder works very well, and did a great job reducing 3 trees worth of leaves into a few bags of mulch. One note on usage - it is a good idea to make sure you know how to change the plastic "blades" and have a few of these out on hand with you in the garden. These blades can be easily worn down by sticks, so a) be aware not to put giant sticks through this, and b) stop the machine and clear it out if it sounds like it is straining. Also, earplugs are a good idea if you're using it for a sustained ... Read More

I have several large sycamore trees. In the fall the leaves pile up like snow drifts. I live in the country and I would load the leaves in my pickup truck and unload them in a ravine on my property. Mulching takes about the same time, but now I have mulch for the garden. I put the mulcher on a 60 gal Rubbermaid garbage can. It fits rather well. After the container is full, I roll it to the garden and empty it.
I think that Flowtron needs the services of a good engineer to design an update. ... Read More

For the last 10 years, I have used a hang on shoulder vacuum mulcher. That was a very inefficient process. Now, I rake my leaves into a pile. Locate the lightweight Leaftron near the pile. Mulch the leaves. I now have extra time to finish up my other fall projects.

This electric leaf shredder works very well, even with wet leaves. I intend on keeping the shreddings and using for mulch and so it is worth it to me. If you intend on bagging yours, I am not sure it is worth the money and extra effort/time to shred them. Shredder is not tall enough to attach a bag to its bottom. What I do is set the shredder up on a tarp and then feed leaves with a standard size flat snow shovel. You can't load too much at once because it gets blocked up, and you MUST remove all branches from ... Read More

This leaf shredder works as advertised. We tested all of the settings from coarse to fine and the leaves were reduced accordingly. Very easy to operate and maintain. It is very powerful, so it is noisy and dust flies everywhere - but it certainly does the job. Anything that enters the funnel that is too big or sturdy (twigs, pebbles, etc) that you might find in raked leaves is thrown to the side. Watch as you shred and you can see when to turn off the shredder and remove items that can't be shred. Very good ... Read More
