Not what it used to be.
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I had a lawnboy before and loved it. Needed a new one so I decided on this. The
electric start is great. The self propel needs improvement. The wheel adjustment
is primative at best.Right front wheel would not stay in place.Had to find a repair station before I could finish cutting my yard for the first time.Had to order a part.It is too heavy and hard to turn.Cut my hand twice on the ragged bottom edge of the of the case loading this 85 lb. mower in my trunk.This is not a returnable item so I dislike this lawnmower even before I use it. Go to Home Depot and buy it
for 20.00 less.They also repair them.

A Great Lawn Mower!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This is one great lawn mower! Very simple, turn the key it starts immediately no pulling on a rope. The self drive bar is very controllable, the drive speed ranges from creep along to run behind. The mower is the same as the Lawn-Boy 10642 except for us folks in CA we pay an extra $20 for CARB Compliant. This lawn mower makes cutting the grass a very easy and quick process. Since TORO is the product of choice for professionals, and Lawn-Boy is made by TORO, you are getting a very well constructed and reliable consumer product with this mower. Also the 6.5 GT Briggs & Stratton engine is really a much better product than the Honda engines on many consumer mowers. The Honda engines on consumer products isn’t the same as the commercial Honda Engines that earned Honda a high reputation. The only problem I experienced was that FedEx damaged the box in transit, not Amazon’s fault. The oil container broke open on the damaged corner and the box and mower was covered in oil when it arrived. Amazon customer service offered me the option of sending out a new replacement unit FedEx overnight or a compensation credit for my clean up time of the oil covered unit. I have never been disappointed with Amazon’s customer service over the years, that is why I always visit their site first for all my purchases.
