This is a non-started. Even if you follow the directions exactly, you'll pull your arm off trying to get this thing running. I have had it for one year, and have managed to get it started only with great effort. Everything else about the machine is fine.... but its not worth it.

Lawn Boy Replacement Side Bag Review

Lawn Boy Replacement Side Bag
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This side-catcher bag is essential for use on older, 2-cycle Lawn Boy mowers and, since they aren't making any more of those models, you can be sure the bags won't be around forever.Not many places carry the OEM bags, so get yours while they're around.
My original bag lasted over 6 years and the fabric was still intact when the zipper failed despite mowing a lot of lawn in all conditions: wet, dry, dusty, etc.I never had serious problems with two of the three Lawn Boy mowers or their accessories I've owned in over 40 years.This bag is no exception.

Husqvarna Outdoor PO550N21RH3 Poulan 21" High Wheel Push Mower Review

Husqvarna Outdoor PO550N21RH3 Poulan 21' High Wheel Push Mower
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I purchased the PO550N21rh3x mower as a replacement for an older mower. It starts right away. It's a great mower for the price. I have two medium to large lawns, and this mower makes quick work of them. I like it a lot. My front lawn is a little uneven with hardly any weeds. Mulches great! Back is about 25 to 30% weeds. I sometimes wait to mow the back a little too long. However, if I side discharge it first, then mulch back over it, I never even have to dump clippings. The Briggs & Stratton engine runs strong. But if you need a Weed mower instead of a LAWN mower, you might want the 190cc engine.

The mower came all assembled (except for needing oil added) and started right off.I've never had a self propelled mower before, so it took some getting use to having to walk at the mower's speed (I seem to want to walk faster).But, it mows the grass very nicely.So far, all I've done is mulch, but it does it very well.And, I don't end up tired when I'm done mowing like I did on my "push" mower.I think this is going to work out very well for me.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I too purchase this mower on sale at Menards to replace a Snapper with a Briggs engine which had starting/run issues starting after 3 years. I did not do much research on this mower, but remembered good comments on Kohler years back when looking for a mower. Appearently, Kohler uses heavy duty components even in their smaller engines. The price was competitive on this unit, but for $50 more I could have got a name brand mower with a Honda engine with variable speed at Lowes. I believe Lowes would replace the unit if I did not like it.

Performance wise, this mower is bagging grass fine. I thought maybe the bag would not hold much,as compared with my prior mower, but holds about 3/4 of a garbage can and does not clog up like my former mower. Cutting thick long grass did not slow mowing performance. Engine has nice, not too loud hum to it when running. I takes one to two pulls to start when changing bags on a hot engine. The engine needs no priming and this may cause an additional pull on a hot engine. Cold engine started with one pull. I looked on Sears web site to check reviews on what others thought of this engine and nearly all were favorable.

This mower has front wheel drive and has OK traction. My Snapper had rear wheel traction and that was better, but inclines are the only area of concern. I just lift the handle up a bit and that forces more pressure to the front tires and all is fine.

I think this should be a good mower, but time will tell.

Husqvarna 7021RC (21") Self-Propelled Hi-Vac Lawn Mower - 961 43 00-57 Review

Mower arrived promptly.Assembly was easy.Filled with oil and fuel and was cutting in no time.Mower does an outstanding job mulching but.....

What were the engineers who designed the bagging system on this mower thinking?It is clear to me that they have someone mowing their lawns for them.

This bagging system is the WORST I have ever owned.It is inconvenient and awkward.Removing it from the mower ALWAYS leaves a bunch of grass behind because the bag separates from the housing every time.It is a hinged assembly.In addition, emptying the bag is a nightmare because the housing does not completely separate from the bag because of the hinge.

The mower is smooth and powerful but this bagging system is TERRIBLE!!

Toro Recycler (20") 159cc 2-in-1 Push Lawn Mower - 20323 Review

Toro Recycler 159cc 2-in-1 Push Lawn Mower - 20323
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If not, like those of us who have full-time jobs, and you'd actually like to take more than 1 inch off of your lawn each time you mow, you should buy a different mower.
I have owned this mower for only a month and it does indeed cut the lawn, but it does not recycle, nor does it bag.

The "recycler" simply slaps gobs of finely ground/pureed grass onto the walls of the deck until the blade becomes off-balance and begins to grind excessively until the engine starts bogging down.Of course this is terrible for the longevity of engine life.I have had to kill the mower after only 2-3 rows, 25ft long, to let the majority of the mulched/pureed grass drop out of the deck.Then begin again.

The "bagger" does basically the same thing, once the grass is mush, the mower tries to shoot it into the bag through a tiny hole which then gets clogged due to the extreme amounts of moisture and lack of space to actually push the grass to the back of the bag. Yes, I waited for a week of dry, hot summer sun, and still the same result.Plants retain moisture.

I am no nubie to mowing lawns either, I worked for a lawn care company for several years, we used Toro products, I like them, correction, I LIKED them (in regards to this product anyway).But I was let-down after purchasing this model.I am also a motorcycle mechanic so I know what is bad for engines.

If this mower had a side discharge it MAY have been a decent product, but who knows. The manual even claims to have a rear discharge chute/deflector, however the dealer had no clue about it and couldn't even find it in their database.

I'll let you know if that changes anything if they ever find it for me to test out.

I bought this mower a year ago and am extremely disappointed. Though featured as mulch optional, there is no plug for the side discharge. I have tried everywhere to find one but can't. E-mails to Poulan are not replied to and the 1-800 number is a recording saying to call during normal hours (I called 2 hours after they were supposed to be open). Don't buy this thing.

Lawn Boy 89906 Staggered Wheel Lawn Mower Bag Kit Review

Lawn Boy 89906 Staggered Wheel Lawn Mower Bag Kit
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I installed this bag kit on an older Lawn Boy Gold series stagger wheeled mower. The mower was originally set up as a mulcher, so it is equipped with a lawn boy high lift blade. The bag kit was easy to install, but I did have to loosen the two guide bolts in order to mount the chute. The instructions said that it was unnecessary, but it made the install much much easier, and has no impact on safety. As with other baggers, the grass must be dry in order for this system to be effective. It can clog quickly under damp conditions. I have found that if I walk the yard prior to mowing, and my boots become damp, then it's too wet. Once you start mowing the position of the bag never gets in the way of trimming, or other wise working around close objects such asshrubs. The only time that it can begin to get in the way is when starting the mower. The brackets are quite close to the pull rope at the top of the handle. This has never been a problem for me, it's just close enough for it to become a concern in my mind. Emptying the bagger is a breeze. It simply lifts off, opens wide, closes easily, and sits back on. no clips, straps or anything. It is very well designed in that manner. The mower when equipped with the high lift blade leaves nothing behind. It also does a very good job of cutting the grass very finely. This product produces a professional cut with minimal effort. I highly recommend this product, and would purchase another lawn boy product.

I purchased this machine to mow grass and mulch leaves as they lay on the lawn.While it cut the grass adequately, the dust from the dry leaves clogged the carburator after only three uses.The dealer's mechanic stated Poulan carburators often clogged. The manufacturer's rep characterized the mulching use as "abuse" and said it was not covered by warranty.I should note I used a Snapper mower under the same circumstances for over twenty-five years.
