Pushed or towed, and the size of the bag · review
A light 14.3-lb push sweeper with a 3.5 cu ft bag, the lowest-priced sweeper here at $90.
At $90 and 14.3 pounds, this is the easiest sweeper to handle and store here.
A 3.5 cu ft bag fills fast in autumn, so it is best on small lawns.
Sweepers work on dry, fairly short material. Check for hoses, cables and stakes before you sweep, and keep hands out of the brushes when you clear a jam.

At 14.3 pounds, it is less than half the weight of the 26-inch model, and much lighter than the Garvee at 28.1 pounds.
Sweepers work best on dry material. Wet leaves mat down and clog brushes.
7.0/ 10
Good entry point, but the 26-inch model is worth the extra $25.
A small lawn with light leaf fall.
