Where was this last fall when we were knee-deep in rakes, plastic bags, and complaining teenagers? What a spiffy contraption this is. The collection system--an 8-foot hose and can cover--fits all Black & Decker blower/vacs. The idea is genius: Attach the adjustable drawstring cover to your garbage can, attach the hose to your blower/vac. Pretend you're in your living room and vacuum the yard. The leaves are sucked directly into your garbage can. No more bending, scooping, lifting, sweating, or cajoling grumpy teens into doing autumn's most bedeviling chore. The system is simple, clean, and a darned good idea. Kudos, Black & Decker. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

 Difficult to use, particularly in cold weather December 28, 2008
J. Grimm (Plano, Texas United States)
The B&D vacuum extension is not very effective. The primary issues are:
1. The hose is too short to allow the flexibility of moving around without constantly moving the leaf collection container.
2. The hose needs some sort of clamp to hold it in place on top of the flexible container cover. It tends to pull out of the cover and blow leaves in unintended paces.
3. The hose is fairly stiff in cold weather (32 degrees). This aggravates the problems listed in 1 and 2 above. All of these problems may be resolved by use in warm weather, but leaf collection is normally associated with cold weather.
 Great Idea but cheap material December 16, 2008
Ben (ON Canada)
I tried the product the day I got it and was very satisfied with the job it did however, like a review I read before I ordered it the hose is made with very cheap, thin plastic. Within 15 minutes of using it, a twig poked thru the plastic. I guess I will have to start wrapping it in duct tape to toughen it up.
if only December 3, 2008
Michael Grabowski (Kansas City)
The product works good. But if you secure the hose to the leaf blower and the leaf container with a bunge cord it works better. The only problem I had was trasfering the processed leafs to the paper bags that they must be stored in until pick up. What is needed is a plastic frame the holds the paper bags so that the leafs can be blown directly into the paper bags; that way you would avoid having to transfer or handle them again.
Great Buy! November 23, 2008
J. Benton (Edmond, OK)
This system basically completed my Black & Decker Leaf Hog. I had owned the leaf hog for a couple of years before I had decided to buy this system. It really does shorten this dreadful job, allowing me more time to do more honey do's .
 not totally compatable with new leaf hog November 22, 2008
Beth Ann Firulli
Product did not attach to new leaf hog correctly so it would fly off spewing leaves everywhere unless it was being held on while in use. Hose also developed a hole after several uses. This product worked well with the older versions of this leaf hog.
