Sarlo Self-Propelled High Wheel Mower, Model# WX24SP Review

Sarlo Self-Propelled High Wheel Mower, Model# WX24SP

(More customer reviews)
This is my second summer using this mower. I not only cut our yard in Georgia which is all uphill or down hill, I cut the road swale twice in the summer. The mower lays down and cuts grass and weeds like a tractor! It is more expensive to be sure but it is definitely a commercial machine. If you wanna do some serious turf cutting get the Beast! The only change I made was to call Sarlo and have them talk me through adjusting the engine speed up to increase the forward speed some.

Factory-Reconditioned Black & Decker MM1800R 18-in Rear Bag Mulching Mower Review

Took it out for the first cut of the season on the day I received it. Have tall weeds and leaves covering yard. Mower had no problem cutting through everything. I used the bag, all the clipping were packed tightly in the bag, filling it completely.
The handle is padded and comfortable to use. The handle is fixed in position which makes it easy to control the mower. I have a steep slope to mow so the fixed handle works well for me, but it takes up room when stowed.
The switch is on the right hand side so your always holding it with your right hand. When you release the switch the mower stops immediately.
If you are expecting quiet, this is not it. If you have a small yard or slopes and don't want to mess with gas this mower works well.

Yard-Man 11A-A19Q701 21-Inch 160cc Honda GCV Mulch/Side Discharge/Bagging Gas Powered Push Lawn Mower Review

This Yard-Man 11A-A19Q701 21-Inch 160cc Honda GCV Mulch/Side Discharge/Bagging Gas Powered Push Lawn Mower... looked good from the picture.
When the mower arrived, I turned it over to look at the undercarriage and found that it was made of plastic, and that the 3/8" metal axles were pressed into flexible plastic pressure clips. The only thing holding the axles to the mower were the plastic clips, one on the end of each axle. If one of those clips broke, the machine would be unrepairable, and unusable.
I tried to return this unused item to Amazon, but I learned then that gas powered machines can not be returned. It makes sense, but I wish that I had known before I bought it. So this may help other buyers in their purchases.
Since I have the machine, I am going to try to use it, perhaps I can learn how to fix it if it breaks. It certainly is a machine that seems to have more value than to be landfill if one axle clip breaks.
------
After reading the operator's manual and the engine manual and assembling the mower, it was difficult to determine how best to start the mower. The MTD operator's manual declares that information is found in the engine manual. They also state that as their mower models change, the operator's manual may not fit the mower that was shipped, and that they assume no responsibility for that fact.
Further, in the engine manual, there are diagrams for 9 different engine setups, and of course Honda could have no way to determine in which manner their engines would be set up.
It seems to me that MTD should be more informative since it is their machine.
I did find that as I set the choke and then squeezed on the kill switch bar the choke went back to the off setting. However, when I pulled on the starter cord, the engine did start, and has continued to do so.
I hope this helps someone using this particular model. I think the mower will serve its purpose, and I am glad that it has the Honda engine.

This mower seems good overall - I didnt realize it had electronic start and it arrived with everything except the keys! I tracked down the manufacturer and they sent me new ones in a week or so. And the pull start works without keys so I was able to mow. It was pretty easy to assemble but it sure weighs a lot. I have never had a power drive mower before so maybe they are all heavy. It doesnt always start on the first few tries but will after 4-5 pulls usually. It cuts very well and the bagger fits on nicely.

Recharge Mower G1-RM10 27-Inch 36-Volt 38 amp Cordless Electric Rechargeable Riding Lawn Mower with Grass Catcher Review

I rated this mower at five stars because it delivered all that it promised. I also went directly through the Company (sorry, Amazon) because my comfort-zone with the price suggested to me that I should by-pass the middleman. From day-one, the company courteously answered all my pre-purchase questions, walked me through shipping - assembly- and operations, including tips to use the mower more effectively.
Using my push mower, my suburban lawn used to take me almost three hours to do, and that with my wife's help. (I'm retired, i.e., well over 21.) Now I do it by myself in about one hour. After about eight mowings already, I am quite satisfied. Operationally, the twin blades cut well, and the bagger is superb. The power is more than adequate, both in chomping grass and rises in terrain with rider and full load of grass. I also tested the charging capacity. I did a couple of double-runs on one recharge, for a total of about two and three-quarters of an hour. It can do the promised three hour running time per charge.
It was refreshing, considering the cost of the machine, to have so many safeguards to protect the mower itself, as well as the obvious safety to operator and other wee critters nearby. For me, it is more agile that a conventional tractor-type. I appreciate not having bio-hazards in the garage, no odors, and almost nothing in maintenance. With an estimated 25-30 recharges per mowing season, I would anticipate a long, long time before needing to replace the battery pack.
If you have a normal suburban-sized lawn, and a noisy conventional gas riding mower does not excite you, I could recommend the Recharge Electric riding mower without reservation.

With over three years of engineering, design, and development, the G1-RM10 Recharge Mower produces a greener lawn and a greener planet. Both real-world and laboratory tested for performance and safety, this battery-powered rechargeable riding mower provides up to three hours of continuous power without gas, oil, or emissions. Its compact size, easy maneuverability, adjustable cutting height, and grass catcher make the Recharge Mower ideal for just about every lawn, and its low-maintenance design and easy-access driver's seat make it ideal for almost any adult, whether physically fit or mobility challenged.
A Greener Lawn, A Greener PlanetWith the Recharge Mower, you can finally make your lawn truly green. This powerful, eco-friendly riding mower operates using three electric motors, a proprietary combination that provides low power consumption and optimum performance. And because it doesn't require the mess or expense of gas and oil, this riding mower emits zero carbon emissions, fumes, and odors.
Simple, Straightforward OperationComplete with an easily accessible seat, this revolutionary mower is not only environmentally friendly, but also incredibly easy to use. The mower is operated through simple hand controls, and the included bagger easily detaches without tools for quick emptying.
To get the Recharge Mower ready for us, simply plug the included UL approved Smart Charger directly into any standard wall outlet. Charge the unit overnight, and it will be ready to mow the next morning--for up to three hours, more than enough time to cut any standard size lawn.
Powerful Mower for a Perfectly Manicured LawnWhen it comes to performance, the Recharge Mower won't let you down. The two long-life, 900-watt electric blades spin at 3,800 RPM for fast cutting. And five selectable cutting heights in half-inch increments from 0.75 to 2.75 ensure a perfectly manicured result.
The Recharge Mower also features a 27-inch wide cutting path--bigger than conventional walk-behind mowers, yet small enough to allow for free movement through an average fence gate, giving you convenient access to front and rear yards. The powerful rear-wheel-drive electric motor provides abundant forward and reverse momentum.
Designed with Safety in MindThe Recharge Mower was designed with a host of features that ensure optimum user safety. To start, an operator-presence switch prevents the unit from functioning when the operator leaves the seat. Additionally, a blade engagement switch requires two actions to initiate the activation of the blade, and reverse speed limiting means the mower will only operate at half the normal forward speed while in reverse. For further safety, this mower operates quietly, so it's easy on your ears.
Rugged, Durable Construction for Long LifeThe Recharge Mower is ultra-durable and won't need tune-ups or special maintenance. Built to last, it boasts a resilient body that's perfectly fitted over a coated and welded metal frame. Additionally, its sealed 36v38Ah batteries are center mounted to improve balance and weight distribution, while its cutting blades are housed within the metal shrouded deck for extra protection against wear and tear.
What's more, all of the Recharge Mower's connections are tight and weatherproofed with shrink wrap, and the electronic components are safely positioned and shielded under the operator seat to prevent damage.
The Recharge Mower conforms to UL1447 and ANSI B71.1 standards and comes with a two-year limited warranty.
What's in the BoxMower with three sealed batteries; grass catcher; charger; and operator's manual.
