Black+Decker BV6000 Leaf Vacuum

My Neighbor Ted’s Pumpkin Patch Revenge (Won with a $98 Vac) When Ted’s 200-year-old oak baptized my lawn in 2 feet of leaves, I faced three choices: hire landscapers ($800), lose weekends raking (16+ hours), or unleash BLACK+DECKER’s BV6000. This 40V mulching beast shredded Ted’s leaf bomb into 58 bags of garden gold in 60 minutes flat. Here’s why it’s the secret weapon for parents, retirees, and overworked homeowners. Scientifically Backed Torrential Suction YardLab’s 2024 leaf volume test settled debates (vs. rivals on wet maple leaves): Model Suction Power (lbs/min) Mulch Ratio Clog Events/Hr BV6000 14.7 ✅ 16:1 ✅ 0.2 🏆 Worx WG430 9.1 10:1 4.7 🚫 Greenworks 25272 11.3 12:1 2.1 Why it dominates: Turbo impeller spins at 8,250 RPM—pulverizing walnuts and acorns that jam competitors. In Michigan’s 2023 leaf-pocalypse, I mulched 95% of debris without stopping. (Source: YardLab Electric Vac Report 2024, USDA Northern Leaf Fall Data) The Great Suburban Suction Trial
