McLane 25-8.25GT-7 25-Inch 8-1/2 HP Briggs & Stratton Gas-Powered Self-Propelled 7-Blade Front-Throw Reel Mower with Grass Catcher

For the money, its OK, but I have some issues with the design. The fact that their is one clutch that engages both the blades and the drive wheels is not a good design, but apparently a separate clutch for each is more expensive to build, judging from the price of McLane's competitor, Tru-Cut. Also, the clutch is nothing more than a tensioner on a pulley. The Briggs and Straton engine starts first time, every time and does not labor one bit. Yesterday while cutting, I found a bearing in the grass. Looks like it came from my mower as it is the same type bearing I see on the front roller, so not I have a puzzle to solve. Obviously this adventure has just begun.
