Close to perfect

By Mark H. Eisenbies

This review is from: Lawn Boy 10640 20-Inch 6.75-Gross-Torque Briggs & Stratton Gas-Powered Push Lawn Mower

I like this no-frills mower. I'll go along with the other two positive reviews and note that this is one of Consumer Reports top rated push mowers.

Pros-
- Jointless, one-piece handle. Past push mowers have screws halfway up that loosen and make the mower harder to maneuver. The one piece handle makes this nice.
- two pull start guarantee, or they say they'll fix it.
- Briggs and Stratton engine.

Cons-
- Jointless handle really transmits vibration. I'd buy the "Good Vibrations" anti-vibration grip. Your hands may not tingle as much.


Also note the complaint that there is no side discharge, there's a card to get one if you want it. Also, the complaint that there are extra holes in the deck... just means it's the same deck that they use for their better models; big deal, it's painted.
