We don't have a sand box, but mulch all around the swingset area, will this pick up mulch?

While our grandson uses it primarily in a sandbox and at the beach, it has been used on bark mulch. He and his friends love it.

I wouldn't think so, unless it was really fine. The digger is pretty sturdy, but mulch tends to pack and be hard to pick up.

Yes, I am sure it would pick up mulch just fine! And I am happy to say, the digger is still played with and is a favorite past time for our 5 year old grandson.

Yes definitely! Its really sturdy we have it in a rock box instead of a sandbox the kids dig up rocks with it so mulch should not be a problem!

I doubt it since it is probably too dense - this machine uses plastic line similar to a weed eater to mulch

Yes you can mulch. The mulch will be a fine grade. This is a wonderful machine.

Yes, it will pick up small amounts of leaves; this a feature I like since we have a number of trees on or behind our property.

I would say if it is like pea gravel or some type of small rock it may be helpful, but I'm afraid it would pick up larger landscaping type rock. When I use them to pick up leaves they even get some dirt

It is supposed to mulch with the exisiting blade. It won't win any prizes for doing so.

The mulching kit works great. You'll only have to rake if you have a ton of leaves, and even then I think you can just leave them. The leaves get chopped up pretty finely.

Yes it does mulch. The bag it a bit small but the unit has great suction power. The unit overall is a bit big but does the job.

No. Mulching is unavoidable. Everthing collected goes thru the metal blades and gets mulched into the bag.

I'm afraid it would just push it around. There is no suction. You can use a swifter pad or a microfiber cloth. I don't think with one would grab sand very well.

I haven't tried. I have set a trash can under it to catch the mulch but if you mount it on a trash can chances are it would be top heavy.

We have been very pleased with our unit. It works well with leaves. We live near a woody area and get lots of leaves. Can't really speak about sand, but I know that it does well picking up anything we have gotten in our pool.

Lots of leaves? I don't think any self contained unit will do that. But if you sccop out as many leaves as possible, it will take up the ones left behind. I think it works well. Sand is no problem.

No, the aluminum fins in the bottom of the spreader that sift the fertilizer will not handle mulch. And the small opening that the fertilizer drops through would stay plugged up, for sure.

I use mine on troybilt self propelled . The mounts on the end of each arm open and clamp around the handle. above the deck. They allow for angle adjustment. If you mount really low you can still use the bag if not mulching.

yes, you mostly just unfold the handle out of the box and hook on either the mulch plug or grass bag. We started parking it in the garage after we were noticing some corrosion on the handle when left under the deck.

yes. my mower has a grass catcher. beware though, although its works great, the part that drags on the ground wears out really quick, I made a platform thats drags on the ground instead of the bag itself...also, I got 3/4 acre and lots of big oaks.
