Does this really pick up sweet gumballs and pine needles as well?

Don't know about sweet gumballs ( I assume you do not refer to the candy in the vending machines ) but pine needles were no problem.

It picked up all the dried leaves that I could find. For me it worked just fine. It should be able to do the same for you.

I don't have sweet gumballs at my place so can't say about that,but i do have some pine trees, and for me it picks the needles up fine. some times I adjust the speed to help it vack better.

Not well. I bought this for small pickup on jobs where lugging out the larger vac was not worth it. Honestly, this wont even pick up a dry Cheerio. Don't waste your money

Yes it picks up bugs and even pollen which is small. It has a fine mesh in the tray.

Probably...it picks up the stuff the palm trees drop...they are about the same size as acorns

It can pick up just about anything, Has alot of power for such a lite weight vacuum. So the answer to your quest YES it can.

Not sure what a sweet gum ball is. But we have golfball size things with spikes. It picks up about 1/3 of them in the basket, about 1/3 hit you and bounce out of the bastet, the final 1/3 gets swept forward. You can add a screen to knock the into the backet, which helps a bit. With that said, the unit is made ok, it is strong enough if you simply push it. Do not pull it behind a tractor. It picks up grass, leaves and twigs just fine. My attack plan: I sweep towards a point, so if they bounce out or shoot forward, at least they are moving off the yard towards a set point. Then I rake the remainder up. I'm sorry to say, I would not buy this to pick up the balls I have. But it does pick up butts and other road trash that people toss out of their cars.

Yes Monica, It picks up pine needles with gusto. But, be careful because this machine is so powerful it picks up rocks which can damage the impeller ( fan-like blade that enables the machine to blow and suck ).

In my limited experience, if the pine needles are dry, it does OK. It gets stuck alot if they are wet. It is not a vacuum cleaner but does OK in picking up some of our pine needles. Works great on leaves, even if they are not entirely dry.

I do not have tons of pine trees on my property, but I believe if the pine straw is sticky from pine sap, the machine is going to have problems handling that type of debris.

I haven't tried it with that. But, pine needles are full of sap, so while I would expect the machine to pick them up, they will likely clog the internal parts. It certainly will blow those little guys, tho, so you could blow them into a pile and pick them up (with gloves, of course.)

It depends. I use it to pick up nails, bolts, ect. It would pick up stuff out of the ground if the objects are not to deep, the ground is soft, ect.

Hi. No I cant seem to find a way that it will pick up only smaller objects. Perhaps the reverse would work with some fiddling on the adjustment sensitivity. Spraying people is fun by the way. I set it off, the gardener, my in-laws, the kid next door...its just fun. As others wrote, you can turn the water pressure down at the hose side and that will also keep the spraying distance short. dont over do it though, find an optimal setting, as if you turn it way down then it wont be able to work properly and spray will be uneven and/or non existent

I dont have pine trees, and dont get pine needles, but as long as they are floating on the top it should pick them up. It picks up leaves,spiders bugs and even small frogs.

Cant address the pine needles question since I don't have any pines on my property. The terrain I use it on is not flat, except for the front yard area and it does a good job. In my case I use it to pick up excess bermuda and field grass after mowing. It will also pick up leaves, small paper trash, and small twigs.

I would think so because it does a great job of picking up our miniature pecans. Very pleased with our Nut Wizard!
