Buying Advice Lawn Tractor Sweepers

[lawny]

I'm looking to purchase a Lawn Sweeper. I have two Craftsman 42" and 44" I'm looking at.

Any Advice?

:confused2:

I HAD the walk behind sweeper, not the pull behind(tractor) and found that when lawn sweeping on windy days that, as the leaves rotated around the brush and thrown into the 3 sided hopper the wind blew them everywhere even the ones INSIDE the hopper.even on gusty days.no i don't own one no more. but on the other hand my walk behind sweeper(when adjusted low) was an excellent way to make stripes on the lawn.

I use what most call a bagger JD calls it a power-flo
It picks up leaves and cuts the grass all at once then bags them.

Much faster and better system but like all things better it will cost more than a sweeper also.
