Are the sounds realistic and does the leaf blower actually blow leaves?

Sounds are quiet but fairly realistic. Some air comes out of leaf blower but not strong enough to blow anything.

My son loved these. With the leaf blower, you can feel a little burst of air that comes out the end. Not really enough to really blow leaves. The chainsaw, is really cool with realistic sound and the fake chain moves. The weed eater is his favorite. It spins and lights up as it spins. Well worth the price.

Yes sounds are realistic my son is older now so he no longer plays with set but from what I can remember sounds were cool. No blower doesnt blow leaves I think its nice if for a young child 2 or 3 wont last forever but cool at that age

The sounds are not realistic. They are definitely toy sounds, like the "whirring" of mechanisms inside; but each part of the set makes a different sound. So, the blower sounds different from the weed whacker, etc. The leaf blower doesn't really blow. I was a little disappointed when I got it and found it didn't blow, but it doesn't seem to bother my son at all. The blower is his favorite of all the tools.

I found that the battery is very easy to be taken out and reinstalled. It is nice not having to drag electrical cords around with this leaf blower. It is light and easy to haul around. Not a ton of power but works great for blowing off sidewalks and patios. I hope that helps.

It has done a decent job with leaves. I close up my pool before the acorns start falling, so I haven't really tested that aspect out yet.

Yes it is.I sent it back, took over 2 months for them to fix & return it. Now it sounds like a lawn mower. I have a $15 fan from Walgreens that works better. Don't waste your money!

Yes I have. The instructions say to shred the leaves in the large position first the reshred in the fine position. The unit will shred them in either position but do not jam the leaves into the unit. Give it time to cut the leaves. It works great for me!

Hi. Well I have used normal leaf blowers to do that very job and since this is a little stronger than a leaf blower, it should work fine.

I haven't used mine in vacuum mode yet but I believe that the power with which it blows grass and leaves it will easily pickup grass clippings and much more. Like you I am skeptical about most manufacturers claims but this blower works so well and much better I expected, I don't think you can go wrong in buying it and will be more then pleased once you have used it. When I was reading the reviews on this blower/vac the only complaint I read was that it picked tree twigs as well as the grass and I guess this individual couldn't figure out that all he had was to not hold the vac tube so close to the ground.

They should be fine for that. The leaf blowers I've used in the past didn't produce that much noise volume. However, I would just use regular foam earplugs. They block out more dBs. The etymotic's are specially designed to reduce noise for all frequencies of sound evenly to retain the high quality of music. Since you don't really want to hear any part of the leaf blower you might as well just block out more dBs.

It might be an added feature or better padding, but, I have the bt and it is awesome!! I used it and I blew those leaves into the woods in no time at all. Enough power to do the job!! You cant go wrong with this model!! I bought this because I have the hedge clippers and it works fantastic, easy pull to start on both the hedge clippers and leaf blower.

No the children actually make enough noise playing I never noticed the sound from the blower. It is a very nice unit. It is behind the slide so it is not loud at all that I noticed.

This will not blow grass. But it is great for dry leaves and found that it held a charge long enough to do the driveway and a big deck. Bought two batteries and glad that I did. I just can't carry the heavy blowers so this one is perfect. Will blow leaves off a mulched path too.

No it does not, just fill with 2-cycle gas, prime and pull the cord and you are blowing leaves.

I don't think so. I can tell you that the sounds are very realistic and do not sound "looped" at all.

I've blown leaves with it (and it worked well), but I wouldn't buy it as a dedicated leaf blower. I mostly blow dust with it.

YES! we have been using ours all winter so far. The only issue other than the noise of the blower is since you cant attach it to the ground like outside it does slide a bit when the kids start jumping. But that's a small issue when it gives the kids so much fun and wears them out on cold winter days :)

The cord on the unit is one foot long. It has a two-prong male plug. You will need to get a heavy-duty extension cord long enough to reach the areas you want to blow off. In my opinion, this is an excellent leaf blower. It is very powerful and I much prefer it to my old gas-powered blower...no stinky gas, no mixing of gas and oil, and no endless yanking on a starter rope to try and start it.

This is a fan not a high speed blower so it would not be very efficient trying to blow leaves..
