Would this pick up pine needles on a lawn?

Possibly. It would depend on the condition of your lawn. It is a powerful machine.If they are long needles you would definitely be better off raking. If they are the short, stabbing variety it might be worth a try. If you have a regular shop vac I would recommend you try it first. It will definitely NOT be equivalent to an upright indoor vacuum on carpet. It just won't be that easy. You need a level surface. If your lawn is really thick it "could" help. If the lawn is sparse you would probably hurt the grass.

I dont have pine trees, and dont get pine needles, but as long as they are floating on the top it should pick them up. It picks up leaves,spiders bugs and even small frogs.

I don't have sweet gumballs at my place so can't say about that,but i do have some pine trees, and for me it picks the needles up fine. some times I adjust the speed to help it vack better.

It picks up pine needles, pine cones, sticks, and leaves very consistently. Due to the size of the pine cones & sticks and the ability for the pine straw & leaves to clump together, this allows the lawn sweeper to gather them up better. The only hard thing that I found to pick up are the sweet gum tree fruit balls. The sweeper tends to keep pushing them forward rather than sweeping them up into the bag, but after some continuous effort of going back and forth it will eventually pick them up.

Although this unit might work for pine cones and vines, I don't think you would be happy with the performance. This chipper has a smaller bottom screen through which processed material must pass. The screen holes are about an inch in diameter, which should be sufficient, although I have found "green", wet or material with dirt, such as root stock, will clog up the screen. You then must remove 8-lock nuts on the back of the unit to clear the screen. That can be anoying. This one handles small branches very nicely.

I believe it will. It picks up small leaves and even grass clippings in our yard.

I do not have direct experience with pine straw, but from what I've experienced with the machine I would expect it to handle pine straw.

I never picked up pine needles or cat litter. This Bissell picks up anything we drop in the kitchen that is not liquid. Does a good fast cleanups on all the other floors in the house. Great little unit.

I would think it would work to remove leaves & pine needles, providing there's a thick enough layer built up so as to be caught by the rake ... The blade does not down directly on the roof because of the little wheels that are on the blade.

I'm not sure that pine needles would be mulched. My experience with the WORKS is with dry oak leaves with acceptable mulching. The mulching part of the WORKS is two lengths (12" long) of string trimmer line held on a 3" hub. Maximum mulching of leaves occurs at the ends of the strings.

We get a lot of pine needles and it picks them up with no problem, when they are dry. Does a pretty good job when they are wet but much better when dry.

Depends on the weeds. Won't pull up well established weeds, like big ones. I use it to level out humps.

Since it does raise and lower to the ground, I did use it in my driveway (blacktop) to pick up leaves. It did a nice job - it even picked up some cedar droppings as well, although not as well as the leaves. I found that it also works very well on even ground. For a lot of variation in the yard, I found that if you raise the brushes slightly, it works just fine. This is my new favorite yard tool for the fall!

I've only used it on leaves. If the pine straw is dry I think it might work.

I would think yes. It has a very easy hook up. I love mine. It saves so much time when collecting leaves.

The air will smell very pretty for a bit and the blades will make noise when they grind them up to a pulp or into seeds to fill your yard with more little pine trees! Do a good job of mulching the grass like the air this set makes to lift up clippings so they get a good mulching and mixing under the deck
