5 out of 5 stars Great for leaves and only leaves   October 1, 2008

Does exactly what it's supposed to do, chop up LEAVES (about 10 bags worth) down to one.

It doesn't do twigs well, vines, or anything thicker than a pencil. You will go through the cutting twines pretty fast.

Overall it's worth having if you have lots of trees on your property.

Purchased this when it first came out. We have been using it for years. It's like the energizer bunny it keeps going going and going. We have a variety of trees and it handles every one of them. He have gone through a lot of cutting cords but you can use any replacement line cutter cord, just have to cut them to length. You also have to feed the leaves into the hopper if you dump to much they can get stuck in the hopper. It also can handle some twigs but if you put to many in at one time they get caught up in the cord and sifter. Believe me, I could never handle the volume of leaves in my yard without it.


4 out of 5 stars Does the job   October 13, 2008

This leaf shredder works as advertised. We tested all of the settings from coarse to fine and the leaves were reduced accordingly. Very easy to operate and maintain. It is very powerful, so it is noisy and dust flies everywhere - but it certainly does the job. Anything that enters the funnel that is too big or sturdy (twigs, pebbles, etc) that you might find in raked leaves is thrown to the side. Watch as you shred and you can see when to turn off the shredder and remove items that can't be shred. Very good product!

This electric leaf shredder works very well, even with wet leaves. I intend on keeping the shreddings and using for mulch and so it is worth it to me. If you intend on bagging yours, I am not sure it is worth the money and extra effort/time to shred them. Shredder is not tall enough to attach a bag to its bottom. What I do is set the shredder up on a tarp and then feed leaves with a standard size flat snow shovel. You can't load too much at once because it gets blocked up, and you MUST remove all branches from your leaves - any thicker than a strand of yarn and it destroys the nylon shredder cords, and these cords are not cheap to buy. I will see if regular weed wacker cording will work.

For the last 10 years, I have used a hang on shoulder vacuum mulcher. That was a very inefficient process. Now, I rake my leaves into a pile. Locate the lightweight Leaftron near the pile. Mulch the leaves. I now have extra time to finish up my other fall projects.


We'll be adding even more exciting features to assist you in the coming year.
