We are now all well in to the season of mists and falling leaves and more than a touch of mellow fruitfulness and it is time for the autumn clear-up.
Billy Goat are American manufacturers who quite simply make the best garden vacs in the world.
This is a really powerful and truly versatile garden vac which can tackle all surfaces from lawns and paths to barns and drives.
It has a simple control to ensure the operator can easily adjust the height necessary for the surface.
And it has a six bladed impellor which can deal with everything from hedge clippings to fir cones and broken glass and general domestic debris.
The collection bag fills from the top meaning that it will be totally full before you need to empty it and is very easy to empty.
Power comes from a Honda 6.5 hp engine and the Billy Goat has a suction width of 29 in with an adjustable intake you can leave open to pick up lighter debris and close it down to create more suction for denser debris.
It will even allow you to vacuum leaves from drives without picking up the gravel.
Additionally there are several attachments which will extend the versatility of this machine – an on-board hose kit for £199, a castor kit for enhanced manoeuvrability on hard surfaces for £125, pack of 12 bag liners for £47.50, replacement bag for £120 and a felt bag to minimise dust for £120.
There is free delivery with two to three working days and a 12 month domestic warranty, six months for commercial use.
