We've had on of these for years and will admit it's handy in some situations but if the leaves or any other debris is wet forget it! Plugs the impeller solid then you have to take the front off and try to clean it out. We use it mostly for cleaning up the left overs after blowing everything to the curb and sucking everything up with our truck mounted leaf loader. It's also great for a lot of commercial properties we do that just have leaves and debris along curbs where you'd make more work if you used a blower. Also when the bag gets full it tends to just come off from the weight and blow crap everywhere. Ours is from like 2005 or so, so maybe they've made some improvements. Good luck with it.
Ive had and used rhe little wonder for 3 years we have the hose attachement. We love it. It pays for itself so fast. We take it and dump trailer all fall.
Great video again and nice vacuum too. The vacuum may not be as quick as a rake and tarp but its EASIER and with the energy that you save, you can do more jobs per day as your less tired. I have the new Billy Goat Pro with all the bells and whistles and two things that I found it, nor a Little Wonder is good at picking up are acorns and pine needles. Keep up the great work !
Hello sir, I'm considering at the end of this season replacing my Billy Goat K Vac with a Little Wonder unit, how many years can you get out of a $3,000 dollar machine like this? Will it last maybe 5 years or less? My Billy Goat K Vac does an alright job, but it's not going to stand the test of time and long long haul after 10,000 gallons of leaves and 3000 gallons of grass thatch the mag wheels are worn and the bag is showing signs of heavy wear and the wheel bearings were shot, which was the biggest thing along with the drive belt. I've fixed pretty much all of that and I can get another season out of it, but I'd like to get a machine that loads top down instead of bottom up. I have a Little Wonder Edger and that thing is amazing, so I wanted to see what else they have because I really like there stuff, what has been your experience as far as service and replacement?
Thought about buying the little wonder vac so I tried my neighbors since they had the same model it wasn’t bad but had a hard time starting and the self propel wouldn’t release and over all a really heavy machine to push and hurt my back so I just ended up with the Billy goat KV vac it’s easier to maneuver it’s not as heavy to push around
I see all these elaborate ways of collecting leaves. Just my humble 2 cents that works for us and is fast. blow them all in a row while one guy is running them over with blocked off deck and gator blades, keep going spreading them out and poof there gone. No hauling or picking up.
Awesome Video! Really neat machine Nick awesome investment! Piece a Pizza sounds like he would rather Rake, Tarp, Drag and Dump though just my opinion. Keep it real Ninja's!!
Well that Little Wonder leaf vac looks like it's going to be an awesome piece of equipment I wonder what those people are going to think when they see the green stripes you left LOL ... another great video see you tomorrow sensei Nick Ninja Mike out
question i have a machine simaliar to that from cub cadet .... do you find it easier to use that leaf vac vs zero turn w/ trac vac ?? especially for a lawn that size ..
man nick that leaf vac is a little wonder that thing does a great job I've never used one but I'm thinking about investing in one.. that does an amazing job
Thanks for the demo sir!! That thing does an amazing job the simplicity of it is great. I can’t wait to get one thanks again looking forward to seeing more videos of it in action.
You got to do a lot of leafs to pay for that machine. I have thought about buying something like that or a debri loader but just can't justify the expense yet.
Hi - Thanks for posting that video on the Pro Vac Sp - I'm in the market for that exact model - Have you had any problems with the Machine at all? Did you purchase the hose attachment for it? just wondering if the hose attachment get's clogged at all - Any new info would be great - I see they are pricing around $3,500 or so, is that close to what you paid for yours? Thank You -
kodiak wild 😜 Maybe you missed the fact that this is really not just a leaf vacuum but a debris vacuum, I’ll race you any day with you raking up clippings on a huge trimming job with all the shrubs and me just vacuuming them let’s do that race LOL 😂
kodiak wild 😁 i’m sure you would just like the race where you have a customer that wants all the mulch to be picked up and replaced with rocks or something else and you got to scoop-it all out while I just go around and vacuum it 😁😂🤣😉
Saving Green Lawn Care I will race you with a Walker - or a 9/11/13/16hp push blower. That lawn vacuum is a homeowner machine, and not for commercial landscaping companies of decent ilk.. Why not just buy a vacuum attachment for the Scag?
Nick when are you gonna let pizza where the pizza hoodie!? lol and pizza im dissapointed you broke my biggest pet peeve of not fueling before using! I see it all the time especially this time of year when the leaves are bad theres always that one person that grabs the equipment and takes off without checking the fuel gets started and runs out within the first few mins... Yall are awesome though, Love the videos and IG! havent missed an upload since I first came across yah here 3 months ago Nick, your an inspiration! Keep up the good work
I'm kind of surprised you posted this video 2 years ago and it looks like no one has asked you about trying to vacuum acorns with this machine in all that time. Acorns weigh more than most other tree debris and they are a nuisance because they attract grey squirrels to the yard in question
HEY NIIICK, is there any way you can show some footage of your tree crew in action. Love the vids also your a great buisness owner all hail SENSAI NICK!
I haven't had any luck with ours, now its not as fancy as yours but its constantly clogging and have to believe that's due to the pathetic 5hp Briggs. One wet or even damp leaves...forget it! Ours always packs at the bottom of the impeller and most times so bad, before you know it you can't even pull the recoil, then it takes 20 minutes to dig it all out.
i was thinking today when i saw your trailer and you should try locking the mowers you dont use cant trust these people in one second they could be gone happend to my dad when he had a company
Hey Nick How much does something like that type of little wonder cost you if you don’t mind answering.? You can always dm me back on Instagram if you want to keep numbers disclosed
So you stop recording on both passes, horrible cut job on the 2nd pass BTW, then pan back to show what an awesome job it did? It was so good, you put it away after 2 passes.
