Is it safe to vacuum pebbles and leaves?

Tiny pebbles and DRY leaves suck-up the best....but I wouldn't try to use this instead of a rake!!! A blower to blow those things away or into a heap to shovel or scoop up is what I do.

Not pebbles, I haven't had much luck with leaves as ours are big. But I do know wet leaves are not recommended.

The tablets have a "floral smell" that is not overpowering. I don't know if they are safe for vacuum types.

yes it may suck in small leaves but any heavy leaf debris it cannot deal with. It is only a small apparatus.

No. The things that clog the vacuum filter are powdery substances. Be prepared to clean the filter after every use.

This is directly from the Operator's Manual:Do not vacuum anything that is burning or smoking, such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.

My only negative about Dyson products is that ALL the floor tools just push small pebbles, stray cat food and the like around. They are too close to the ground.

NO. You should use a Dust Extractor vacuum designed to handle fine dust to use this product.Your regular household vacuum will burn out it's motor with continued use.Al

I have not picked up acorns, however, I have some hard pods from a sweet glum tree that really makes a bad sound if I get into any. I have since stopped using the vac on them and I rake them into a pile and pick them up by hand. Not to bad, better than damaging the vac.

I do vacuum b swiftly and it will do a great job.efore use of the haan. It's safe if the hardwood floor is not kept wet, use it

Mint Plus is not a vacuum cleaner, therefore it is not designed to pick up heavier particles like sand. It will, however pick up dust and any small particles that may cling to the dusting cloth or mop pad.

Providing the potted plants are well rooted (secure in their soil) and the type of potted plants aren't too delicate and you don't place the vac too close to the plant, I don't think you would have a problem. If the soil in the pots is very dry, it may suck up the plants and soil.

A wet/dry vacuum can be used with wet leaves, but it might clog up in no time. My best solution so far: let leaves dry the stuff into any leaf bag (for your town to collect weekly).

In theory, the leaf blower works as a vacuum, but I have avoided using my leaf blower that way. It doesn't take much, according to other reviews, to break the unit. Why risk it?

use this with a sediment filter first. it can be damaged by large particles

No. A rolling set of bristles sweep dry fragments and whole leaves into the catcher and does this best when the ground is level, like a carpet sweeper.

Yes, as long as they are not compressed into the ground. I have an area with some #2 gravel that I have to avoid because it picks up some of the gravel also.
