I've used it for 3 days, only went thru string once and its' already blew up. First it overheated and would not shut off, after letting it cool and cleaned it out filter and all and the motor dulls out. Total waste of my money.

Useful Leaf Shredder

a year ago
After one Fall leaf season I’m impressed with the Sun Joe shredder. Easy to assemble, easy to use and the final shredded product makes great leaf mulch. My only suggested improvement would be to strengthen the shredding line pieces.

Yes, I recommend this product.
