Very Poor Design

bytnridgernr Sep 19, 2005
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Runs good and is a pretty color green.
Cons Poor discharge chute and caster wheels
Recommended it? No

Have owned this mower for over three years and can honestly say this is about the worst mower I have ever owned. It will not cut grass that is either a little damp or a little too tall. Constantly clogs up and has to be turned over to be cleared. The metal in the caster wheels bends very easily -... Read full review »

Pros BUY A TORO OR HONDA. YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY!!!
Cons Too many to list. BUY A TORO OR HONDA. YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY!!!
Recommended it? No

After a friend talked me into buying this mower for my lawn business, I thought I was in for a sweet deal. What I got was much too sour for my taste.

I have used nearly every kind of make of mower: Snappers, Toros, Honda's (commercial and residential). I have to say, every one of them... Read full review »

It works, but that's about it.

Pros It works.
Cons It's a spoiled brat lawn mower.
Recommended it? No

This is a reasonably expensive self-propelled walker that acts like a prima donna. If you're used to a no fuss, durable lawn mower, this is not your ticket. I had a cheap self-propelled Homelite for 18 years that required no maintenance and that worked flawlessly for the first seventeen years. I... Read full review »

Pros Quality construction. Great bagger. Powerful.
Cons Heavy.
Recommended it? Yes

I've owned the JA60 walk behind mower for 6 years and have not had a single repair issue in that time. I do maintain the mower meticulously (oil changes, spark plugs, filters, sharp blades, etc.) I mow about a quarter of an acre once a week or so for about four months out of the year. I will concur...

Disappointed!

Pros It does cut grass...
Cons Hard to find replacement parts. Expensive. Tends to cut unevenly.
Recommended it? No

I bought my John Deere JS63C from Home Depot 2 years ago. I thought purchasing a John Deere essentially guaranteed reliability and serviceability. I was initially happy with the purchase, having replaced a smaller (20", 4HP) used Weedeater mower due to a bent shaft. The caster wheel turning makes... Read full review »

Durable and Versatile Mower

byjohncf Jun 5, 2005
16 Helpfuls 17 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 6 Comments
Pros Versatile, mulches and bags well, plenty of power, very durable. Self Propelled
Cons Fuel tank leaked after three years. A little heavy. Caster wheel feature not very useful.
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this mower from Home Depot for $469 in July 2001. I paid that much because I wanted durability. It looks and feels sturdy.
It features a B&S Intek engine, 21 inch width of cut, mulching / bagging blade, easy height adjustment, and caster type front wheels with straight ahead... Read full review »

Pros Starts every time without fail.
Cons Way too many costly repairs!
Recommended it? No

We bought our John Deere in August 2001 at Home Depot. After having a bad experience with another mower and just wanting to exchange that mower Home Depot gave us a deal on this one since they no longer had the other mower in stock. We felt a John Deere would be good since they have that... Read full review »

Great Mower

10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Great power and quality.
Cons Somewhat noisy
Recommended it? Yes

I would highly recommend this mower to anyone who wants to spend the extra money. It has a powerful engine and god features. The engine has always been a bit noisy, but other than that no major problems.

I owned this mower for 12 years and the engine finally seized up after weekly mowings... Read full review »
