Alternatively, some of us remove the leaves using standard vacuum cleaners, which results in clogging of the tubes. This new year, you can choose to continue with the outdated methods, or shift to a leaf vacuum mulcher. A close cousin of the leaf blower and vacuum cleaner, the mulcher nevertheless has some vital differences which make it important to gather sufficient information on the category in general and also the best products in the market today. To save you the hassle of going through endless product descriptions that promise the moon and sifting the truth from the marketing claims, we’ve provided below vital information about mulchers, buying tips from experts, and reviews of top rated mulchers available in 2022.

Interestingly, this muscle is coupled with sufficient design specialty for the product to be used in odd-shaped regions.

It’s ideal for clearing, edging, and clipping leaves and other debris in general. It has a top air speed of 250 mph and a strong suction, making it ideal for clearing medium and heavy-duty chores. In simple terms, it blows up debris at a pace of 400 cubic feet per minute with a mulch ratio of 16:1, making clean-up quick and easy. With a weight of only 11.2 pounds, the leaf vacuum allows you to cover a vast area. It also comes with two power boost buttons to help you switch on and off to different yard tasks. Furthermore, the Black + Decker 3-in-1 Electric Leaf Blower is affordable and comes with an easy-to-wear backpack. TORO 51609 ULTRA 12 AMP VARIABLE-SPEED (UP TO 235) ELECTRIC LEAF BLOWER/VACUUM WITH METAL IMPELLER Features and Specifications Power source: corded-electric Style: 3 in 1 blower/vacuum/leaf shredder Colour: Red Weight: 10.00 lbs Air Speed: 235 mph Air Volume: 390 cfm Noise level: Check on Amazon.com Read Full Review Matching the WORX product closely, this offering from Toro comes with a powerful motor that can create airspeed of up between 112 and 235 mph. Coupled with a bag capacity of 390 CFM and a number of variable speed levels, this allows the product to offer mulching and blowing options without compromising on overall versatility or quality. Where Toro really shines though is in the hardware – there is a special metal impeller blade in this mulcher too, and for good measure, it has been coated with magnesium. Furthermore, depending on the speed being used, there are two inserts – power insert and concentration insert, which decide the type and speed of leaf mulching/blowing. When added to the “Ultra” blower mechanism and the range of speed options, it becomes clear how this product can achieve a 16:1 leaf volume reduction ratio in a short span of time. WORX WG509 ELECTRIC TRIVAC: LEAF BLOWER/VACUUM/MULCHER Features and Specifications Power source: Corded Electric Style: 3-in-1 Blower/Vacuum/Mulcher Colour: Black Weight: 11 lbs Air Speed: 80 mph to 210 mph Airflow: 350 Cubic Feet Per Minute Mulch ratio: 8:1 Check on Amazon.com Read Full Review Boasting a variable airspeed of 75 to 210 mph, this WORX offering’s 12 amp motor is further enhanced by options like six speed settings and throttles control. This system allows the product to scatter/collect leaves from large areas, as well as remove them slowly from sensitive and narrow regions. Indeed, such versatility extends to the function modification system as well, with vacuum and blowing modes being interchangeable using a simple hardware button. In addition, two points need to be made about the design – the Worx WG509 leaf vacuum and mulcher comes with a special angled tube having a curved tip, which makes removing leaves from inaccessible areas easier. Secondly, the product’s mulching system is composed of a two stage mechanism – a standard mulching stage followed by a rare impeller mulching mechanism that reduces the leaves to minute pieces with a volume that is 18 times lesser than the original volume of the leaves consumed. Last but not least, the machine carries out all these tasks without raising the noise level above 71 decibels. WORX WG505 TRIVAC 12 AMP 3-IN-1 ELECTRIC LEAF BLOWER AND VACUUM MULCHER Features and Specifications Power source: Corded Electric Style: 3-in-1 Blower/Mulcher/Vacuum Colour: Orange and Black Weight: 11 lbs Air Speed: 80 mph to 210 mph Airflow: 350 CFM Mulch ratio: 16:1 Check on Amazon.com Read Full Review The second WORX candidate on this list, WG505 offers a powerful 12 amp motor that boasts a maximum air speed of 210 mph and a minimum of 75 mph. Like its cousin mentioned above, there is no requirement for tube-changing when it comes to shifting the work mode, and this, coupled with the 1-bushel capacity bag that comes with the product, allows the user to work in different modes without having to change anything beyond the configuration of a lever on the product. In the true spirit of a leaf vacuum mulcher, the product comes with a metal impeller that can turn 16 bags of leaves into one bag of leaf dust. This is coupled with the nice 14 gallons per minute processing capacity of the vacuum system, which ensures that the fine leaf dust is created at a speed that is convenient to your schedule. PATRIOT PRODUCTS CBV-2455H 24-INCH HONDA GAS POWERED WALK BEHIND 3-IN-1 LEAF VACUUM/CHIPPER/BLOWER Features and Specifications Power source: Gas Powered Style: Walk Behind Leaf Vacuum/Chipper/Blower Colour: Clear Weight: 181 pounds Check on Amazon.com For a hassle-free leaf blowing or vacuuming of medium to large yards, Patriot CBV-2455H is the way to go. The efficient gasoline-powered engine taps on the walk behind mower design to give you the two-in-one garden machine. Though two in one, switching from vacuum to blower needs no tool and happens in seconds at the flip of a handle. With its Honda engine, it provides enough power to clear a 24-inch wide space in one pass, thus providing faster service. During mowing, the leaf blower channels the leaves to the high-capacity collection bag thus giving easy work. Its hooded vent design limits the dust reaching the operator hence making it suitable for clearing driveways, and sidewalks. The two-year warranty and the CARB compliant status speak boldly of its quality and clears any doubt on the indecisive mind. Although it produces minimum fumes, the Honda leaf blower is a must-buy garden equipment as it promises to change your yard outlook.

Combine this with 90mph top speeds and you have a blower that can handle even the toughest of yards. At the same time, this Lithium-Ion monster is easy on the muscles, weighing in at just 7.1lbs. This allows its maximum capacity of 20V battery to be utilized without ending up with muscle cramps. Throw in a variable trigger and speed lock, and it becomes clear that this blower engine is the ideal solution for all except the largest of yards. GREENWORKS 24012 SINGLE SPEED ELECTRIC BLOWER ENGINE Specifications Power source: Corded Electric Style: Corded Colour: Green Weight: 4.5 Pounds Speed: 160 mph Check on Amazon.com For those seeking a lightweight no-frills solution for their lawns/backyards, this Greenworks device comes with a healthy 7amp motor that can be bumped up to 9amps for some added power. At either rating, the motor ensures excellent clearing, going up to 530CFM and speeds of up to 160mph. All of this is packed into an ergonomic design that doesn’t exceed 20 inches (Its blower tube measures 20 inches long), nor demands that you carry more than 4.8lbs. With no gas or cord hassles to deal with along the way, these features combine with the safety lock mechanism to ensure that small to medium homeowners get their best bang for the buck. WORX WG518 ELECTRIC BLOWER/MULCHER/VAC, 12AMP Specifications Power source: Corded Electric Style: Leaf Blower, Mulcher & Vacuum Colour: Black and Orange Weight: 10.8 Pounds Speed: 250 mph Mulch ratio: 16: 1 Check on Amazon.com One of the most versatile multipurpose garden tools from WORX, the 3 in 1 Handheld Leaf Vacuum Mulcher Blower WG518 offers two speeds for those who prefer greater adaptability. Given that the powerful motor translates this into 250mph and 400 CFM at full capacity, the adaptability is hardly a trade-off for sheer power. Add to that the 16:1 mulching ratio and you have a powerful all-rounder. Of course, this all-rounder can also brag about a total weight of 10.8lbs, which is remarkable considering this is a multipurpose unit and not simply a blower. Equally remarkable is the handheld blower’s ability to provide decent recharge cycles by virtue of its efficient 12amp motor. Add to these convenience features such as the one-touch blower to mulcher conversion and safety lock mechanisms, and you have a great option for the suburban homeowner seeking more than the average blower. WORX TURBINE 12 AMP CORDED LEAF BLOWER WITH 110 MPH AND 600 CFM OUTPUT AND VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL – WG520 Specifications Power source: Corded Electric Style: Corded Turbine Blower Colour: Red/Yellow Weight: 7.2 Pounds Speed: 110 mph Airflow: 600CFM Check on Amazon.com If achieving high CFMs in the range of 450-600 CFM is your goal, the Turbine is your ideal companion. Having been fitted with a top-end motor and WORX’s trademark Turbine fan technology, this beast pumps out 60-110mph without stretching the engineering. On the power front, the Turbine uses the more traditional corded power supply but amply compensates for the reduced mobility this causes, courtesy of the efficient 12amp motor and a weight not exceeding 6.4lbs. Add variable speed control and decent safety features to the mix and the Turbine appears as one of the best corded offerings, even for homeowners with comparatively large lawns/backyards. GREENWORKS PRO GBL80300 LEAF BLOWER Power source: Battery Powered Style: Blower Colour: Green/Black Weight: 8.9 Pounds Speed: 125 mph Airflow: 500CFM Check on Amazon.com Among the few cordless units to lay claim to being a true gas-blower replacement, this GreenWorks Pro unit backs up its boast with a motor capable of achieving up to 500 CFM clearance. With blow speeds reaching an admirable 125mph, the Pro managed to remove everything from autumn leaves in the garden to water on the patio. Such work, however, was achieved without any strenuous effort given that the entire unit (battery included) weighs in at less than 8.2lbs. This is all the more remarkable when you realize that the battery packs 80V, charges in less than half an hour and can provide over an hour of service at top speeds. Consider these with the all-too-evident lack of a trailing power cord, and you have a unit that packs a punch without straining the back! TANAKA COMMERCIAL GRADE THB-260PF GAS POWERED HANDHELD LEAF BLOWER Power source: Gas Powered Style: Vacuum Capable Colour: Red/Grey Airflow: 393CFM Noise Level: 68 dbA Check on Amazon.com Read Full Review The commercial-grade leaf blower suits small yard blowing jobs. With a lightweight of 10.1lbs, it’s easy to bear in one hand and experience less fatigue. Its 25cc engine and the 1.3HP drive the high-velocity air of 393 CFM (at round tube) output to blow all types of debris from the yard without any struggle. The cruise control and the innovative high fan nozzle allow for easy and efficient work of directing debris. With a noise level of 68dbA, it is relatively quiet to operate in the neighborhood. To further reduce the fatigue during operation, it has the soft grip handle feature that supports the comfortable hold and in addition, allows you to rest your finger off the trigger for protracted operations. Thus you don’t have to constantly press on the trigger from start to finish. Although it’s gas-powered, the PureFire, low emission technology, and CARB compliance make it hard to ignore! WHAT IS A LEAF MULCHER VACUUM? Leaf vacuum mulcher engine, as the name suggests, uses a vacuum to remove leaves from lawns, patios and other areas. Unlike the ordinary vacuum cleaner that you use to remove debris from your lawn, the mulcher has special blades that slice and dice the leaves into small pieces. These can, depending on the type of the best leaf mulcher vacuum (discussed below), be removed or restored to the lawn to act as fertilizer. MULCHING LEAVES EVERY FALL IS VITAL BECAUSE OF A NUMBER OF REASONS 1. Helps uncover grasses and flower beds, thereby allowing them access to sunlight and pollen. 2. Ensures snow/rain during winter falls on the flower beds directly. If snow falls on leaves lying above flower beds, they can suffocate the plants underneath. 3. Prevents leaves from turning into a soggy mat come spring rain. 4. Prevents growth of crabgrass and dandelions, according to research by MS University. 5. If left as mulch in open areas, they decompose and act as mulch. 6. Ensure that an unsightly mess of leaves is not created in the lawn. OTHER REASONS Despite recognizing the importance of removing leaves and/or mulching them, some garden owners consider mulchers to be a professional-only appliance. They instead prefer normal yard vacuum cleaners or leaf blowers without mulching facilities. Doing so is tantamount to doing a disservice to your lawn because 1. Ordinary vacuum cleaners cannot remove the leaves because of their typically larger size and presence of hard leaf stems. Using a vacuum cleaner will not only clog the tubing, but can cause worms and bugs to enter the cleaner along with the leaves. This can create a headache later when using the cleaner for cleaning the interior of the house. 2. Leaf blowers without mulching attachments/options are usually meant for moving the leaves from one place to another without breaking them down. You will still have to remove the leaves separately, unless you want to be criticized for leaving heaps of leaves around. Further, such removal prevents the lawn from benefiting from the mulch being mowed into the lawn as fertilizer. TYPES OF LEAF VACUUM MULCHERS Since leaf mulchers evolved from various other gardening tools, they do not have a standard classification of their own. However, you need to know some broad classifications that set one mulcher apart from another – BAG OR WITHOUT BAG STANDARD LEAF MULCHERS Come with a bag or basket in which the mulched leaves are collected, to be thrown away or returned to the soil as the need may be. The bags themselves are carried on the shoulder, or pulled/pushed along with the mulcher itself by means of an extra wheel. MULCHERS WITHOUT BAGS They are somewhat cheaper, but they tend to throw the mulched leaves back onto the ground. This is acceptable as long as you begin mulching from the edges of the garden and intend to return the leaves back into the ground, but in other circumstances, it is best to collect the leaf residue together in a bag for easy disposal/dispersal. GAS OR ELECTRIC GAS LEAF MULCHERS Belonging to the older generation of leaf vacuum mulchers, these products use gas to run the mulcher. The obvious benefit of this is that the mulcher can be carried around regardless of the electric supply situation. Indeed, if you are planning on opening a garden cleaning service and/or have to work in large areas (like orchards), a gas-powered leaf mulcher is a good idea. The problem however is that the gas mulchers are extremely heavy, and cannot be used in areas of extreme heat. Further, gas mulchers are extremely noisy and can produce smoke if proper maintenance is not carried out. ELECTRIC-SUPPLY ONLY LEAF MULCHER VACUUM Some products need an electric supply instead of gas to work, and this allows them to be quieter and cleaner than gas mulchers. Further, since gas tanks are not needed, the products are lighter and can be moved quickly and stored without fear of gas leaks. The flipside of these mulchers is that they can only work in the area serviced by the power cord and/or generator BATTERY POWERED LEAF MULCHERS The most advanced mulchers available, these products come with a small but powerful battery that can be used when the mulcher is out of power cord range. At other times, electric power allows the product to run and the battery to charge simultaneously. The problem with these mulchers is that they typically come with a high price tag, though with improvement in technology, the prices have come down vis-à-vis the other mulcher categories. Indeed, many of the best blower vac mulcher today are those that come with both electricity-only and battery powered hybrid functional modes. TIPS FOR CHOOSING THE BEST LEAF VACUUM MULCHER Each person has his/her own garden size, tree composition and time schedule, and this area vital to deciding what type of product will be the Best Leaf Vac Mulcher for him/her. However, as general pointers when going shopping for a mulcher, you should keep in mind MOTOR SPECIFICS While the best products mentioned above never go below 12 amp motor power, the threshold for acceptable products is 10 amp. Below this air speed, it is impossible to obtain thorough mulching regardless of the overall capacity of the machine to handle leaves. REDUCTION RATIO The reduction ratio refers to the ratio in which the original leaf volume is reduced when passed through the mulcher. Good ratios are in excess of 16:1 and can go up to 18:1 for top products. SPEED VARIATIONS All of us have garden sections that are filled with nothing but tough grasses, and also parts having delicate plants. Using the leaf vacuum mulcher at full speed in the former makes sense, but can damage the plants in the latter. Variable speeds, which can save these plants from damage is, therefore, a vital feature of any product. Aim for products with at least 2 genuinely different air speed variations. EASY MODE SWITCHING CAPABILITY Most modern mulchers also come with a leaf blower and vacuum integrated, so it makes sense to be able to shift from one mode to another at short notice. The best products come with a single lever or switch for making this transition. POWERFUL IMPELLERS Though it is not necessary for impellers to be made of metal, it is important for them to be present and be capable of taking high leaf debris impact while chopping the leaves into fine pieces. NOZZLE/PIPE DESIGN The nozzle or pipe (also called tube) of the product should be designed to fit into small spaces without creating a vortex of dust and residue that increases your work. A curved nozzle and a wide tube are the best solutions for the average garden mulcher, though more specialized attachments are always useful. FQAS 01. Do leaf Vacuums Work on Mulch? When it comes to removing waste from your yard, a leaf vacuum is your greatest friend. Yes, a leaf yard vacuum, also known as a blower vacuum, can be used to suction mulch. Ideally, the vacuum sucks up debris, shreds it, reduces it to mulch, then collects it in a bag. However, the leaf vac has limitations, such as the fact that it only works with dry leaves and can only amass a small amount of debris at a time. 02. What Should I Get Between A Leaf Blower And A Vacuum? It is incredibly impossible to choose between these two gardening tools, as they perform nearly identical tasks. However, there are a few slight variations between the two. The primary function of a leaf blower is to blow or push debris, while a leaf vacuum can both blow and suck the debris. So, on which gardening tool to pick, we recommend a leaf yard vacuum, but what will ultimately determine your choice is the job at hand. 03. Can You Use A Leaf Blower And Vacuum On Wet Leaves? There is a lot of debate about whether a leaf blower or a leaf vacuum is better for cleaning damp leaves. While a strong leaf blower may blow wet leaves to some extent, it is best to wait until they are dry or use a traditional rake. Wet leaves consume a lot of energy and can quickly clog your leaf vac, rendering it worthless. Remember to also use your vacuum as per the manufacturer’s guidelines. 04.
