I found and purchased an Ohio Steel 42" lawn sweeper off Craigslist a couple of days ago since the fall leaves are coming , so I just wanted to share my first impressions on it. The sweeper box is made out of solid metal although the wheels and gears are plastic, overall looks durable. The hamper is made of strong canvas with some plastic sheet lining on the bottom. I have not used it yet since I can't trample over my freshly seeded grass with a tractor yet , but it appears to be of good quality for home use. Time will tell.
All I need now is a pair of earmuffs and a sycamore tree and I'm ready for the "What did you do with your cub today" thread
