Do you have anything bigger?
Dead leaves are the disease and I’ve got the cure!
I bought this Yardman several years ago at Costco. It’s a blower, vacuum, mulcher, and missile launcher. It’s huge. The nozzle is so big, I could easily use the Yardman to suck up the kids’ toys off the living room carpet. Unfortunately, the mulcher blades would probably grind the toys into itty bitty pieces (is this really a bad thing?). For yard work, I’m not liking the Yardman. It jams when you vacuum too many leaves. I can use it as a blower, but the kids hate it when I blow the leaves at them.

I totally need something like that right now. My yard is full of leaves, poop and toys.
Good luck with using the Yardman as a poop scooper.
I would totally use that to pick up toys! Great picture of the little girl. Hehehe on blowing leaves at the kids. Secretly I’ll bet they love it :)
OK, they do laugh when I do that to them. But they laugh even more when they get to blow the leaves at me.
That’s a great shot!! But yeah I would keep it away from the poop. Sort of like hitting the fan, you know. heh.
Happy WW!
Might work if the Yardman didn’t have those mulcher blades.
Wow! That’s got to be the biggest leaf blower I’ve ever seen. Even the pros don’t have them that big! you can use it to suction up the dog!
It even comes with an attachment to use it as a floor vacuum (comes in handy for the garage and deck). If only it would stop jamming.
Goodness! That is a big leaf blower! I bet the kiddos do get a kick out of having leaves blown at them.
They think the Yardman is a big toy.
Now that is just awesomeness.
For some reason, it takes longer to rake up the leaves when the kids use the Yardman.
It’s wonderful that they like to help out. Of course, by the time they’re old enough to do it effectively, you won’t be able to get them near it. LOL
You got that right. They want to help when they actually make chores take longer. I have a feeling when they can do it right, they’ll just whine about doing chores.
I was completely expecting you to add an impression of Tim Taylor’s “Home Improvement” “ARH, ARH, ARH” after all that! :-)
Maybe I should be like Tim and hook up the Yardman to a bigger motor.
She is the Terminator…
I wouldn’t turn my back on her….
I think she would also make a great ghost buster.
what a cute hoot!!! in oklahoma, we have tremendous need for a leaf blower that big.
Get a cordless one!
Hee hee, my hubby won’t use our blower. He said it was too hard to control. I learned that if I blow everything to the lawn then I can just mow over instead of pick it up. :) On tree trimming day I get to thinking how much I’d like a chipper.
Hugs,
Holly
I know what you mean about the chipper. I can never fit all the branches in the yard yard debris container and I have to spread out the trimming over several weeks.
My grandkids made big messes until I made this toy cabinet that gets them to put a toy back before they can get the next one.
Check out this video.
The kids learn to keep their rooms neat really quickly. I like the creative things we can do once we start to look at things from the kids point of view.
I bought one of those for our last property, as we had a huge Walnut tree that dropped leaves EVERYWHERE… now we have no trees. You can have mine too if ya want it!
That’s just like all neighbor’s gigantic trees. The leaves fall all over our yard. Out trees are small and don’t generate nearly as many leaves.
I don’t have a tree in my yard but I totally need to get one of those. That thing looks like the best toy ever.
Fun toy, but not as useful as it should be.
