Black and Decker Garden VAC Collection Debris Bag Gw200 Gw225 Gw250

Get what you pay for.

This was the cheapest Leaf blower/vac I could find anywhere online. It is not as bad as others I have used before but I think it will break if trying to pick up things other than leaves. Now before you say its only for leaves we have a 200 year old Conker tree which not only sheds its leaves but conkers and their outer casing, With a fresh fall of leaves every day it is like a minefield so all I can use it for is to blow what I can then use a rake. Tried it on the lawn at the rear of the house which is plagued with sycamores, it was good with dry leaves but was a pain with wet ones. The collection bag has a zip to make it easy to empty which is good because the bag holder comes off all the time due to a poor design and it catches your leg all the time, I solved this by using the carry strap to tie the bag to the handle which seems to overcome this issue. Sorry to be on a downer about this product but try it and if it fails to do the job send it back.Read full review

Original bag , but not very robust.

I had the B&D blower vac stored in the attic for many years. I took it down and decided to replace the original bag which had a broken zip.

The bag I received was new and exactly the same as the original. It was sold at a very fair price when compared to the usual spare outlets. Thats the good news.

The bad news is I had forgotten how weak the original design and materials are. I decided that in use I would never let the bag get more than half full.

I can't tell you how that strategy would have worked out because the motor of blow vac burnt out on first use with the new bag.Read full review

I din't think I would find one.

My Black and Decker Gw250 leaf blower must be about 12 years old and when a mouse decided to make his nest in the bag, destroying it in the process last winter. I did not expect to find it still in production in its original format. I was very chuffed to find that a New bag was less than fifth of the cost of a new one. I ordered a new one from a main agent and received it in less than four days. It fitted my old unit perfectly and I used it constantly for two weeks. It is very strong and made from durable synthetic material for strength and to resist damp and rotting.
It is easy to use and to empty via the strong zip front edge. Just watch out for mice when you store it for the idle season.Read full review

A mixed "bag" !

Bought this as an original manufacturers replacement and was expecting better quality. The bag is sturdy enough and the zip is good, but the rubber straps at either end are simply not adequate enough to hold the weight of a even a half bag of dry leaves, let alone a full bag without the whole lot pulling off the vac. I've had to reinforce them with cable ties, which is really not good enough.Read full review

Does what it was designed for.

Specifically designed to fit, not a generic universal design. Does the job well, although the zipper could have been a little more robust, given the amount of abuse gardening products get, but just need to treat it with respect.Read full review

Good service great product

Really impressed with this bag, quality appears good and it comes fitted with a plastic connection neck joint which fixes securely onto the blower....the original bag supplied with the bag simply had a hole in the top of the bag which meant it slipped off during use. The new one is excellent.Read full review

Second chance

The replacement bag for my neighbour’s Black and Decker garden vacuum has given it a second chance as it was designed for the tip. A quick clean and the new bag has sorted things out for her. All’s well now.Read full review
