Pros & Cons
Pros
Good product. It fit perfectly. That is essentially the same as the bv6600 except the lh5000 has a variable speed dial not limited to just two.
It's faster to use this device with my black and decker blower than it is to rake and then bag leaves. Leaves sometimes gather around the perimeter tie-off, which you have to coax back into the bag when changing bags. Mulches leaves pretty well.
Black and decker leaf collection system paired with a large 32 gallon garbage can with an extended lip. Used in conjunction with a 33 gal lined trash can. Attaching to the trash receptacle/leaf can was the hardest part.
Cons
The material used for the hose sheathing is prone to tearing. Your better off just using a couple of rakes to pick up the leaves and depositing them into a trash can. The netting part likes to sag during use which then gets clogged with leaves.
It's very difficult to use. And not in a fixable way, either. What a colossal mess. Don’t waste your money on this “time saver’.

Shreds piles of leaves and deposits them into can
I probably sucked up a rock or acorn and it poked a hole in the hose
I just kept pushing the leaves down into the can so it held a lot but you could put trash bags into your can take it out when f... Read More
Competitiveness
The upside is that it is very inexpensive half of other competitive brands so if i need to replace it every year or two so be it
