I had a agri fab it didn't work to good in wet leaves or my deck didn't move enough air to help push? Bought used looked good but every time i used it i worked on it. I have 12 huge oak trees in my front yard not counting the back so it was still faster than a blower. something went down the carb and locked up the motor and at that point 1 was done a motor would of cost more than i paid for the whole thing. So if considering buy new or do a better job checking it out than i did. I plan on buying a mower with a bagger and calling it a day hope this helps
Thanks, I appreciate the intel. I have a rider with bagger and oak tree's. It is unreal, as I am sure you know, how many leaves a mature oak can lay down. I also seem to have picked up taking care of leaf removal at my elderly in-law's and they have oaks out the butt.
don't get me wrong it worked good i didn't check it out before buying thats on me- if your able to make a pass without it hooked up to chop them up smaller a lot can be packed into that thing.
Have a agri. My problem is pone needles. While it will suck them up not efficient. Have to run over them a few times to get most of them. Just using the hose it suck good.
I'd like to have a yard vac, but I hate to buy something like that and only use it once a year.
The good news is that you are unlikely to hour out the vacuum and they pretty much last forever with just a little TLC. I would use it when I let the grass get a little to long also, so could see it being used more than just Fall. It is funny that I can't actually find one around me to go look at. I did find a DR Pro321 an hour away.
I used a billy goat, was awesome.

DR 321Pro leading the pack right now. Would like to buy from my local Ace Hardware, but despite 2 visits, they just don't seem interested in selling me one.
Trac Vac looked interesting, but no dealers around here.
