I purchased my Cyclone Rake II in November of 1998. The current cost is close to the same as I paid back then.
Of course, it is useful during the fall, but I also use it whenever we have high winds that cause debris to be blown out of the trees.
Today I replaced the impeller for the second time. The first time the impeller was replaced was in 2007.
The bag (improved) was replaced in 2012 and is in great shape today.
The engine, which still runs just fine, is the original engine.
Good instructions are furnished with replacement parts.
Some new bolts and certain tools are sent in the repair kits.
Mine has been pulled by a mower with a 12 HP motor all this time, so it has not over-loaded my equipment. Go ahead and get one!
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
