It works

The sweeper is definetly much faster and easier than raking. The first time I used it I thought the sweeper was crap. But after using it a few times, I now appreciate that it is an effective product. It will take some time to figure out how to use it most efficiently.

Pros.
1. Faster than raking and bagging.
2. Light.
3. Does what it advertises, that is, sweeps up leaves.
4. No cords or gas/oil mixtures to worry about.
5. The bag is easy to remove and reattach (which you will have to do a lot of if you're picking up a large amount of leaves).
6. Can even be used on pavement (has to be relatively level).

Things to look out for:
1. The sweeper will not work well on hills or lawns with chunks or divets.
2. It took me a few tries to figure out the best height to use for my front and back yard. Luckily, the height adjustment is pretty easy to change (just don't tighten it too much).
3. The sweeper works better when not pushed like a mower (tip it forward and up as you push it).
4. Relatively easy to put together (in spite of the confusing instructions).

Cons:
1. The bag doesn't hold a lot of leaves and requires frequent changes. However, I guess a larger bag would make the sweeper heavier to push around.
2. The attached bag doesn't empty easily into paper recycling bags.
3. Does not work on edges (think where a mower is not effective). You will still need your rake.

Bottom line: I am glad I bought it. Now my neighbors want one.

faster than raking

It's definitely faster than raking. It's not the easiest thing in the world, but its not too difficult either. There is some resistance when pushing it, so be aware that you'll be tired after using it. My only other complaint is that the bag is relatively small, so its necessary to do frequent dumps. Dumping also should be easier. Because the bag is on hinges, you kind of have to put the thing back together after you dump. So it sounds like I'm being pretty critical, but for the most part it works really well. I would buy it again and would recommend it.

disappointed

I thought the lawn sweeper would be great, but for my yard it wasn't.
I have sod/zoysia grass, it did not do as well as I had hoped. My neighbor
has a different grass and it worked very well. I would recommend this
lawn sweeper for large open areas not quarter acre or half acre lots.
I would like to re-sale this item if anyone is interested.
