Does anyone like this mower I think it is the worse one I ever bought. It does not mulch it leaves clung of grass

I've had this mower for a few years and actually like it. However, it will leave a clung of grass if the basket behind is not attached correctly. It also has to be emptied more frequently than many other mowers. If attached correctly, it should keep this from happening. Because it has to be emptied out so frequently, it is not good for really large lawns. What I like is the lighter weight and the start up function with the key. It has been a reliable mower for what I use it for.

I like my mower. It makes me 'jog' behind it. But my desert grass is much different from regular grass, it picks up everything for me.Best wishes!

After this year I agree with the short comings of this mower. I have had the same problems. I think they need to redesign the shoot to the bigger. Doesn't seem to operate right.

We absolutely love the mower- it's the best we ever had. As for mulching, I cannot comment on that as we bag everything it picks up and put it in a mulch pile in the corner of our yard, so never really used it as a mulching mower. As a bagging mower it works fine, vacuuming up even small stuff.

Mine cuts thick grass without even noticing. It does fine with any height lawn, but it absolutely does not cut tall grass. For example, once your lawn starts putting up seed stalks, this mower will not cut them. It is great for keeping my lawn in shape, but I have to mow on schedule or 'sports' start sticking out of the lawn.

Yes It Does. It is a powerful and sturdy mower and I have learned to like it despite my original negative comments regarding its design. I did not believe or feel that the lever arrangement to raise and lower the cutting blade was sound, stopped the blade when raised, and that it would perform well over the long run. I still feel it could have been engineered better, but otherwise this is a really solid machine and it performs its task very well. Now glad that I bought it.

Yes a very good brand one of the best mowers I have used I have cut weeds 6 inches tall without the use of a weed eater. I think its a new company that's just starting but in the future there products are going to sell. This is a must buy I give it 5 stars

This style of mower does not create suction like a rotary mower and therefore will not pick up leaves. The cutting action is created by the rotating blade contacting the straight blade in the back. Great for cutting a consistent heigth grass.

I use as mulching. Mower, only. It is very light in weight. Does a good job. Don't remember if it came with bag. Had a year and happy with it. My yard is not large. I mulch leaves

If it were me, I would just go online to the manufacturer and see if that is an option. It is a mulching mower, so it pretty much takes care of things. I love mine!

The only thing good about it is it's dependability. It always starts. The turning radius is so big,it takes twice as long to mow. The steering is so hard, I am worn out after mowing. It doesn't have the power to mow in reverse. I am sorry I bought it, and would never buy another one.

This wonderful mower mulches the grass. You don't need a bag. I love the mow and go for keeping up with my small backyard.

I don't know, but I have to say that this is the worst purchase I have ever made. The mower is too underpowered to pick up grass (my major complaint), is heavy and is difficult to mow with on a sloped lawn. Toro is of absolutely no help: "mow more often; take half swipes; set the mower at a higher cut." I would never buy another. My 35 year old wired Toro is much superior. I had to buy another handle ( $100), but I have gone back to it.

When i first used my mower I found that the bag filled up so quickly it was difficult to make any progress in cutting the lawn. I took the bag off and the "flapper" came down as not to throw the grass out. If this flapper isn't staying closed, this might be your problem.? I don't use the bag and it sometimes clogs up the blades with all the mulch., it doesn't throw it out only chews and chews. I hope this helps. bassman

If you pull it backwards quickly it should unclog easily. It sounds like the grass is too long and maybe moist. As long as you stick to a routine of once a week or once every two weeks there shouldn't be any problems. The first time I used mine the lawn hadn't been mowed for two months, so I had to stop and rake the cut grass and a few pulls backwards. After that it was all smooth sailing, no problems.

So far, the mower is fine. I mowed with it about 15 times last season and I've mowed four time this year. For me, it has proven well and I still like it a whole lot better than the John Deere L110 that I had. Plus, after sitting in the garage all winter, I just knew that I was going to have to give the battery a charge before using BUT it started right up the first time! It took about three seconds and the Briggs and Stratton started up like a champ.

Yes. Yes I have. I lowered the blades and it did not make a difference. It seemed to barely cut anything and when opening the grass catcher it had almost nothing in it. I ended up going back to gas and couldn't be happier. I bought a troy built with a grass catcher for 199 and love it!

So far we've had no problems with this lawn mower. You might want to check the gas type or air filter.

It tends to pull grass up. It's not very gentle for lawns. It is great in a garden or working with mulch though. I love this take, but not on my lawn.

Hi Frank. No, this is a push mower. If you have lots of hills, that may be a negative. But if you, like I, have basically level lawns, with this mower, all engine power goes to the blade. As I mulch rather than discharge, this is a big plus. Hope this helps. John
