Gentlemen;

As that time nears and I cannot afford to hire someone this year to
rake/blow all the leaves in my yard, I am destined to accomplish this
unpleasant feat by myself.

As I already have a Toro electric blower which is good for small things, the
pros seem to use a wheeled gas powered blower to move them enmass to a huge
pile for bagging/disposal.

I've just looked at Consumers Reports and they rate (on their scale) a Toro
Electric the same as a gas powered wheeled blower. How can this be?

For any of you readers who have first hand experience I would appreciate any
comparisons that can be provided regarding electric, gas backpack or gas
wheeled?

All help, advice, recommendations greatly appreciated.

Hi,
First How big is your yard?
