Powerful action!
I used this over past weekend after buying within last month. It has done a great job with mulching leaves. It has cut my workload in half. Great machine!!

ANOTHER GREAT WORX TOOL & TIME SAVER
This machine performs efficiently and is user-friendly.
I purchased the leaf mulcher in the anticipation of the end of the annual curbside loose leaf pick up program, replacing it with bagged leaves for curbside collection. After heated city hall debate, it postponed for this year.
The mulcher reduced a pile of leaves equivalent to 6 to 8 33 gallon size barrels into 1 1/2 collapsible Worx barrels of leaf bits in a few minutes.
For the best operation, shred dry leaves free of twigs and pieces of branch, do not overload the hopper, and stop the machine periodically to clear the shredder platform of any accumulated debris.
I recommend the use of a mask, hearing and eye protection.

Work saver special.
I have three large oak trees and what seems to be an infinite amount of leaves. It usually takes an entire day to bag and remove all the leaves three different times in the fall. This shredder knocked that time down to just a couple of hours. As far as I'm concerned, this is a miracle machine. It is worth it's weight in gold! After putting to use, could not believe how cost effective the price was.

does this leaf mulcher also mulch sticks and pinecones
no it only mulches leaves, big leaves work the best.

Here in the Pacific Northwest we're starting the rainy season when the leaves come down. How well does the leaf shredder work on wet leaves?
Not well. Wet leaves gum up the cyclone action within the cone and leave a tar-like substance that builds up on the bottom of the shredder and is difficult to remove. Also, avoid mixing dried blades of ornamental grasses with your leaves. They have a hemp-like consistency and will wrap around the shredder's cutting wheel. Other than that, if using dried leaves - and leaves only - this shredder works like a charm. We've been using it for 5 seasons, now.

Will the WORX WG430 13 amp shred decorative grasses? I also have cane grass. Or will it just break off the cutting string?
Ummm ... not to contradict Bob's answer, but I would not put dried ornamental grasses through the shredder. I did this inadvertently two seasons ago when raking up our lawn leaves that also included long, dried leaf-blades from our ornamental grasses. When I mixed the leaf-blades in with the leaves in the shredder, the sinewy blades wound around the bottom of the cutter wheel and jammed it. I am very careful, now, to extract the ornamental grasses' dried leaf blades from the leaves and not put them through the shredder. Lesson learned.

Are the dimensions of the leaf mulcher such that they will fit on top of a plastic garbage can - if I want to mulch into that instead of a plastic bag?
Do we purchase the replacement line from WORX ? What is the quantity and approximately how often do we replace the line? I have 5 old large maple trees; Lots of leaves in the fall. This product should work well for me for leaf disposal if I buy it.
Thank you for your question. Yes, replacement line is available from Worx. For more details, please visit https://www.worx.com/leaf-mulcher-replacement-line-wa-0050.html. Replace the cutting line when a noticeable decrease in shredding efficiency is observed.
Thank you for choosing Worx!
