What a terrible product – Bought the cheetah 25.4 cc, could not start would not work, then I went back and bought the Victa blower vac 25.4 cc and was amazed that it was exactly the same as the cheetah. Only difference was the logo and the Victa was blue in colour. They both would not start at all not matter what I did and wasted 4 hours of my time attempting to start them… Read more
and product return. I will not buy Victa again. Absolute rubbish. POI... Victa and cheetah obviously made in same factory
Absolute garbage, deserves no stars – Biggest piece of rubbish ever built. DO NOT BUY this or you WILL be buying another one within a month. Could get better quality in a show bag. Complete and utter Garbage Show details
Re badged blower – This Victa blower is simply a no brand Chinese generic model known as an EBV-260 with Victa branding and color added. I have the unbranded version bought cheaply from an online seller and it's identical except for the color. It has been very reliable and works well. Show details
Unreliable and Buggy – Went through 4 replacement units over the last 9 months. Issues like inability to start, kill switch not working and working in blower but cutting out in vac. Do not buy. Show details
Amazing 2 stroke machine Engineering since i bought it brand new in February – lovely machine i use mine for blowing leaves grass clippings after mowing and it makes very light work of use and despite the reviews i have read on that does not tempt me to go buy something that is decent for the price of my use and if anyone want,s my advice don,t use Cheap Chinese Spark Plugs in the 26cc 2 stroke motor just use Champion or NGk… Read more
type branded plugs as they will insure the engine will start up easier and remember to mix it accordingly to 25:1 ratio and she,s a good goer and remember to insure the spark plug boot and wiring is in place for it to make contact and you,r gonna be ok for a good full days work etc and the housing for the engine is designed by Stihl almost but yeah the engine itself is made by Victa so yeah the two came together to make one good machine from my view and because i live in a area where i get the odd leaf lot and occasional grass mess it helps tidy up my place in a jiffy and i have been using Victa for many years and no dramas just gotta keep it all clean tidy and give the carby a good shot of degreaser or change out the fuel or add in a fuel stabilizer and she,s good to go
Worst design. Do not buy – I do not recommend this badly designed vac blower. A mongrel to start. Runs badly, does not rev and chokes. Outlet pipe badly angled. Leaf bag badly designed. Not impressed. Show details
Don't buy – I'm on my second one now, Bunnings replaced first one and now have same problem with second. So much for selling quality products Bunnings. I don't recommend this blower at all. Show details
Piece of rubbish – My review relates to the orange "Victa Pro" model, but I'm sure they're the same. Mine lasted about two years and wouldn't have done 10 hours running. I went to start it this week but there was no compression and fuel going everywhere. I simply don't known which brands make reliable domestic yard tools any more, but it's been a long time since… Read more
Victa has done anything good. I have the Victa straight shaft whipper snipper as well and its exceedingly average also - doesn't run well, gets hot.
Victa from Bunnings - poor quality – I thought I was buying a quality Victa product when I purchased a Victa Blower-Vac from Bunnings. The item I got is very difficult to start, it takes at least five minutes running time before it will run at full revs and even then it will hardly blow a candle out. And now, six months later the started cord broke - the rope is of very inferior… Read more
quality. I have since learnt that a Victa item from Bunnings is not the same as a Victa item from elsewhere. Bunnings tell suppliers the price they need to sell the product & suppliers provide a product at that price and, here's the rub, quality. In my case, the quality was clearly compromised.
Carby problems – Brand new and carby problems and the repair man said that every victa blower that bunnings sell comes straight to him with carby problems but they continue to sell faulty product I feel that I have been shafted with this product and bunnings reaction was rude and unhelpful Recommend not buying there product Show details
