Quality Check Point

After talking to some neighbors and friends, my husband decided to purchase a Tort 235 MPH blower. The customer religious service representative talked him into purchase the extended warranty service as well. After analyzing, the product decided to give it a rating from one to ten on the following specs Quiet and powerful 8 The Tort blower is more powerful than most handheld gas-powered blowers are. The Tort is quieter and clean- running, it does not pollute the environment. changeable speed motor 9 The variable speeds are a great feature because you can blow around lanes without damaging them Low cost 9 With a cost of gas the electric Tort has seemed to be the right choice at the time. Lightweight 7 -we have a good sizing yard so the weight seems to be an advantage but after using the unit of measurement the straps were quiet uncomfortable. Cord limited to 150 feet -2 this product is fig for small yards, one of the features no one option to let us know before we purc hase this blower.The cords also get tangle truly easily around bushes and rocks having to frequently stop to free it. Vacuum bag awkward. 3 -the vacuum tube attachment is quite long and with the bag over your shoulder is very uncomfortable. The vacuum gets clog up very easy with wet cedes and it gets to be a burden because we have to take it apart to free it. Extended Warranty Service- 1 The motor burned out on this unit Just two months after we purchase it.Trying to get a stockpile of a live person seems to be a challenge we either get an automated service saying that we are calling after hours, to leave a message or to call during business hours. If we called during business hours, we either were put on hold for a long erred and after that, we got someone on the line that could hardly speak English, a total disappointment. After reviewing all the pros and cons of the Tort blower, I would rate this product at a five because notwithstanding If works great on dry leaves It Jams very easily with wet leaves.It Is very uncomfortable to use for a long design due to the cord- get tangle up easily around bushes and the vacuum attachment are too long making It Is very uncomfortable.
