Yes. It is electrically powered through an extension cord. It is NOT battery operated.

It isn't electric...it has an ionic, metal plate under the bristles that heats up when used with a blow dryer.

This attachment for collecting leaves only replaces the small bag that hangs from your vacuum. If you have shredded leaves in your small bag, then that's what you'll have in the trash can. To me if you have a lot of leaves to collect, this is the best kept secret from Black & Decker I've ever seen.

Yes, it's electric. You have to plug it in the wall. It works great so far.

Hello, It is electric. My son runs a drop cord out to it when he will use it. I have been very impressed with how ell this has worked, very bright and surprisingly sturdy. Make sure to follow the assembly instructions, make installation easy.

Yes it is electric but does not have much power to it. I bought this last year for my 11 yr old son, he enjoyed it but his comment was he wished it had more power to it. But overall its a good beginner

Nope. This is a tiny blower for small, smooth surfaces - I.E. work benches, garage floors, or maybe patios, decks and sidewalks. If you want to try a rechargeable blower for a "great amount of leaves on a yard" then get one of the larger Makita 36 volt blowers made for lawns. And unless your leaf filled yard is really small, I personally wouldn't settle for anything less than a gas blower or a corded electric. $.02

yes, it has an on-off switch for the powered brush which we turn off when vacuuming on wood

it is totally electric. the cords a bit short so you need extension cord for just about any situation.

I can't answer your question directly, but let me say that this unit should not be called a leaf blower. It is quite ineffective at blowing leaves across a lawn. What it should be called is a "sweeper". It is excellent at blowing leaves dirt and light objects off our sidewalk and wooden deck. My wife loves it and uses it daily. If you have chairs, rugs, planters etc. to "sweep" around, you can't beat this tool. The battery lasts for a week to boot...

Yes. It's electric. You will need a long heavy cord. I have a large yard, so I will be using several cords. I've already used it, and it does a great job. You have to be careful about the cord. But once it is out of your way there is no way to accidentally cut it.

This is not a vacuum, but a vacuum attachment. The leaves go through the Black & Decker leaf vac shredder first, then through the hose and into the receptacle (usually a trash can). This attachment takes the place of your Black and Decker bag (when used as a vacuum instead of a blower).

No, the power cord is manually wound. Although winding the cord is a little extra work, this design results in a sleeker and lower-cost vacuum. After using this vac for a few months I can say I am very happy with it. The suction power is outstanding.

The pump is electric and works well - emptied most of my swimming pool with it and it will suck up leaves, etc.

I haven't tried leaves, but the hose is about the same size as a regular vacuum cleaner so I think leaves would easily clog it up. Unless they are quite small, like from a house plant.
