Feider FAST175T Self-Propelled Wheeled Garden Vacuum
Today we are looking at the Feider FAST175T self-propelled wheeled garden vacuum. This is the next level up from the traditional garden blower/vacuum. Being a self-propelled wheeled garden vacuum, it takes the hard work out of collecting leaves and garden debris.

This powerful French-made leaf sweeper is suitable for large surface areas (up to 6000 m²) and multi-surface use.

The serrated blade impeller helps to reduce the garden waste in size, making even more space in the 150 L collection bag.

Feider FAST175T Self-Propelled Wheeled Garden Vacuum
If you’re looking for a way to clear leaves quickly and efficiently on multi-types of surfaces. Then the Feider self-propelled wheeled garden vacuum is a good option.
The main advantage of a self-propelled garden vacuum over a leaf blower is that the machine collects the leaves as you go. There is also the added advantage of the optional suction hose which is great for clearing in those awkward places. The suction hose can be used on flower borders, gutters and those awkward to get places.
Engine
The Feider self-propelled wheeled garden vacuum is powered by a petrol four-stroke engine. The traditional recoil start engine has a capacity of 173 cc.
Drive System
I always like to try and use tools that make life easy in the garden. The Feider self-propelled wheeled garden vacuum does exactly this. The self-propelled machine drives on the rear wheels, making it easy to use and turn.
Mulching
The hardened steel impeller helps to mulch the leaves and debris which in turn creates more room in the 150 L collection bag. To give you an idea of the collection bag size in real terms. The collection bag has more than double the capacity of a large rotary lawnmower collection bag.
Height Adjustment
With five different working heights to choose from between 15 and 60 mm; the Feider self-propelled wheeled garden vacuum can work efficiently with all different types of debris.
Optional Accessories
One of the most useful items for the Feider FAST175T self-propelled wheeled garden vacuum is the hose kit. The hose enables you to get into places where the actual wheeled unit cannot go. This feature is useful for flower borders, gutters, it makes your garden vacuum into a large outdoor vacuum cleaner!
The other options are the powered rake attachment and the brush attachment. Both are useful attachments for keeping your garden tidy.
To Conclude
In case you haven’t heard of the name “Fieder”, they are a French company that manufacturer budget garden machinery. They seem to have the ability to create good products at excellent prices. Their reviews are also normally very good. The reviews for the Feider self-propelled wheeled garden vacuum average 4.5 out of five. This is not bad for a budget-priced machine.
There is also a Feider FAST175P Hand-Propelled Wheeled Garden Vacuum, this is one hundred pounds cheaper, but it is not self-propelled. Personally, I would pay the extra one hundred pounds and have a machine that drives itself, it’s much easier than pushing!
The machine comes with a two-year peace of mind warranty which is a great added bonus.
