Good mower. However it is extremely heavy for a push mower.
Not A Bad Mower, But... October 11, 2007

This is probably a pretty good mower. I bought it on sale because my 18 year old Lawn Boy began acting up. This one has started the first try every time.
But, this is really just a Toro mower with green paint and a Lawn Boy sticker. Toro bought out Lawn Boy several years ago, and the transformation is now complete. Gone are the old two cycle Lawn Boy engines. Now you can have a Tecumseh or a Honda engine, same as on a Toro, and I doubt either one will last as long as my old 2 cycle Lawn Boy.

I can't figure out why I wasted my time trying to fix the old junker, I don't know why I trawled craigslist looking for second hand mowers and I don't know why I thought I would luck out on a good bargain Mower (you know the brands). Eventually after touring 3 Box stores I went to professional Mower shop to ask for advise - they steered me in direstion of the Lawn Boy as good value for money and worth the premium over lesser mowers.
I am so glad I took their advise cos I love this mower, and I venture you will too if - you want a great looking lawn, great mower design, easy handling, and the option to repair vs replace.
I'm kinda nuts about my lawn. With my last mower I had to cut the grass twice - in opposite directions - to get the even cut I wanted ... not anymore.
Plus, because of the LB's wide wheels, I don't get the "wheel ridges" you get next day or day after when a heavy mower / narrow wheels / and damp grass conspire to fold the grass over while mowing, etc.
Plus, In this category all the other grass bags are smaller than the LB's so I can pick up more ... but also, the LB has a design that the bag really fills the bag ... unlike last mower which did have big bag but only filled 50% before dropping.
Plus I love the design, from the Starting pull, to the EZ off bag, to the EZ set wheels - The machine is a dream to operate.
Plus, the tank of gas lasts forever ... Ok, I made this one up, but you should seriously consider this mower.

I bought one of these from Home Depot 3 years ago and it's been nothing but trouble. Replaced 2 coils and it won't start right now. 1 year after I bought it the self-propell stopped working and Lawn boy said I did it and wouldn't cover it under the warranty. It stinks.
