1.0 out of 5 starsTerrible mower

Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2018

This mower is a huge disappointment after two seasons. The original blade was totally ineffective to pull grass up and blow it into the rear bag. I bought a $30 aftermarket "high lift" blade in hopes that would fix the problem. Only a marginal improvement. The mower desck just does not create enough vacuum to pull clippings up. You can run over a few leaves with this thing and they will still be sitting on the grass. It can't pull grass up around the edges of the lawn either. Don't even think about cutting grass that is damp. Clearly, this mower was designed by people who never cut grass. Because it is a "three in one" - mulch, side discharge, rear discharge - it does none of those functions well, but the rear bagging is crap. The rear door has all of these features in the plastic door that trap clippings and because the pull up and blow of clippings is so weak, the grass collects at the front of the bag. When you remove the bag, if it is more than half full the grass spills out the front and makes a mess. The bag is also pretty small, so you have to stop a lot and empty it. The wheels are not individually adjustable so you can't tilt the mower for high edges around the lawn. The Briggs motor starts up fine for me but it seems to lack the power to spin that blade fast enough to get good suction to pull the grass up and blow it out the back. I am sorry I ever got rid of my Craftsman 21", even though it was 27 years old. Should have brought it with me when I moved.... It could have run circles around this Troybuilt. Part of the problem is now we have lawn mowers that have to be designed to meet all manner of stupid government regulations and most of them are total crap. If you are willing to spend $750-$1100 for a Honda, you might get something that works. No more Troybuilts for me.........
