Yes, the zipper on the bag is awful.
I just purchased a replacement and because the old zipper fell apart at the ends I've shortstopped the ends with zip-ties. I slit the fabric of the zipper and ran the tie through. I then hit the fabric slits with a bead of hot glue. Hopefully this will work.

    Poor Zipper
    I bought the leafblower over a year ago now. Second Toro Combo Leafblower i've owned like this. The bag lasts about a year with use, if that. So plan on buying a new bag every year. Zipper area doesn't hold together well and falls apart. If that doesn't happen, the teeth end up going on the zipper and can't open or close or blowouts in corner shown in pic. I have a relatively small yard and use it less than a dozen times per year. Also I use the strap so it isn't dragging. This is how they get ya. Buy a $60 combo leafblower and spend almost $20 each year on a new bag. Also if you have oak leafs don't waste your time with the mulcher - stems get clogged up and constantly taking apart and cleaning out the inside. Same goes for green or wet leaves.

      Another review for a bad collection bag
      Funny, I came on to the site to contact Toro about my bag, and I saw all these reviews about bag issues. I rarely use the vacuum/bag portion of the tool, but had to yesterday, for maybe the 3rd time over the past 12 months. While zipping up the bag to close, the zipper would just not catch properly in several spots. I kept examining the zipper in the first area it would catch, and can't find any damage - I don't see why there would be since it's hardly been used. Very frustrating, and I couldn't finish cleaning up properly since the bag wouldn't hold waste. Going to call Toro CS, hopefully will be able to get a replacement.

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for the Bottom Zip Leaf Blower Vac Replacement Bag. We are sorry to hear that you had a bad experience where the zipper would not close properly in certain areas. We recommend checking the inside lip of the bag by the zipper to see if any debris could be blocking the zipper path once it starts to close. Should you find nothing there, Toro customer service would be happy to help further and can be located at toro.com/support.

        The original bag that came with my blower had a zipper failure on it's first use. The workmanship was awful. The bag was not usable. So I reordered a replacement bag from Home Depot and the quality seems to be much better. I used it for an entire day and the zipper did not fail. I'm happy now.

        I just used the bag twice and already have a few small holes on the bottom. The zipper becomes hard to manage because the debris get between the teeth. So far is the third bag that I replaced but there are not other options.

        Sorry Joe; holes at this early a time is unusual. Are you using the shoulder strap to ensure the bag is not dragging on the ground? If we can be of any additional assistance please contact 888-384-9939. Thank you Toro

        The bottom zipper is prone to ripping away from the cloth & don't buy this version. I recently bought a new Toro blower & the bag zips on the side, which is a great improvement since it's not stressed like the bottom zipper is by the weight & scrapping along the ground.

          It's all that and a bag of leaves.
          OEM Toro product, does what it should, but DO NOT toss out old bag without removing the plastic snout to be reused.

          Poor design for a sturdy bag
          Strong bag - Bad design! The straps are too long and the bag drags along the ground. This caused the bag to tear along the bottom. I patched it up a few times but the tear got too big. Unfortunately this will happen again because the new bag I purchased is exactly the same 0 but there are no other options. Seriously consider reinforcing the bottom of the bag. When the blower dies I will not purchase another Toro.

          The bag is good and generally durable except the last bag; the zipper seam separated and I was unable to unzip the bag. Also since the bag must be carried by a strap on your shoulder the bag gets heavy quickly. The fact that the nozzle must be removed from the old back and reinserted into the new bag can be easily overlooked when purchasing this bag. Therefore, a bolder statement that this must be done would be nice.

          The bag was fine however the plastic adapter was not included. A better description of the product would have helped. I had to remove from the old bag.

          Great machine awful zipper at bottom of bag
          I love my Toro leaf blower/vac but the bag is awful. I have replaced the bag once and now on my 2nd bag which needs a new zipper. The quality of the zipper is awful and the material of the bag is flimsy where the zipper is located at the bottom of the bag. Put a better zipper in the bag and reinforce the bottom where the zipper is located. These area gets a lot of activity when doing yard clean up!

            The bag isn't the problem, the design of the blower/vac is the problem. The shoulder strap pulls on the rear of the bag causing a fold/crease which will result into another tear in a short amount of time.
