Can I use it to pick up acorns off my deck and walkways?

yes, it would work well as long as any branch material is less than an inch long.I use it for saw dust

I don't actually have nuts in my yard, nor do I have much familiarity with how big most nuts are, right off the tree, except for walnuts. I think it would pick up walnuts without any difficulty. The Sweet Gum tree balls are about an inch in diameter, and the pine cones it picked up were about an inch in diameter and about 3 inches long.

We have no acorns, so I have no firsthand knowledge. I would surmise that if the acorns are imbedded in thick grass, there would be few blowers up to that. All if can say is that compared to a gas model I once had that cost almost five times the price of this electric one, this Weed Eater is every bit as powerful.

It doesn't have what you'd consider normal suction. The hose that attaches is a garden hose. It creates a swirl of water in the water that lifts the leaves up and into the bag. I don't think it would work on acorns, especially considering that it runs pretty flush with the bottom of the pool.

The suction is pretty good, i have picked up lots of leaves, and paper, maybe acorns but I can't say for certain. I can say if you have tons, this will take too long. Leaves took a long time but I'm the genious that waited till all the leaves were on the ground before starting.

Yes. I have used this to trim around my porch & shrubbery. I have Bermuda and centipede grass in my yard. Turn the blades to the sideways position for runners. It works great.

Hello, It can pick and clean bird seeds. It cannot pick up shells from a peanut. Best Regards, Royal Blue Shipping Corp

I have a large oak in my yard, too. The vac does pick them up, but be warned about the noise level when it tries to chew them- it is quite loud. I used the collection system with mine and when I poured the refuse out, the acorns were mostly intact. I'm not sure how the wear and tear on the blades will affect the unit's lifespan but it made it through year one ok.

It is very powerful and I have had several. I have used it to suck up acorns. I am sure it will. Great value.

I don't know. It will pick up black walnuts in the hull. It probably handle hickory nuts in the hull.

No, I don't think it would work well for that. I used it on pinecones and small branches and it worked well. I use my lawnmower with bag (Greenworks as well) to collect and mulch leaves.

It picks up a little bit of everything. It will pick up pine needles and grass that has been cut. You can adjust height as wel.

probably yes. if there is not to much of it just pull it out by hand. I only put it on the grass.

Yes, it will pick up small amounts of leaves; this a feature I like since we have a number of trees on or behind our property.

It has done a good job on my property which is covered with "Post Oak" trees. These trees product small size acorns by the tons. The trees are also notorious for small branch tips falling to the ground, and the mulcher will chew them up too if you allow an appropriate feed rate.

Dear Jean W., As long as the acorns are over 1/4 inch in size, and you use a very quick back and forth motion with slight pressure on the basket, it will pick them up- it does for me. I hope this answers your question. Maren
