TORO 22in. FWD Recycler Mow

I've used it several times now and I'm very satisfied with the mower.

Rear Wheel Drive: Works well with the pressure assist handle. The harder you're pushing the faster the wheels turn. It helps on the big hills.

Clean Out Feature: Attach the hose and let the blades clean out the under carriage. Works very well and helps motivate you to keep the mower clean.

Mulching: Works great. I slow down through the tall grass and it doesn't leave any piles behind. I plan to use mulch almost exclusively.

This has been a nightmare. I bought the Toro self propelled mower TWO months ago and on the 4th (FOURTH) use, the engine died. The repairman tells me the engine needs to be replaced, and after numerous emails to Toro, they will not honor the warranty, will not help with repair and will not credit my money. They tell me that even though the oil was FULL and NEW when I bought it, that I failed to change the oil (remember, I only used it 4 times) so it's MY fault. Do yourself a favor and don't buy this or any TORO ... I will NEVER buy a TORO again.

Never started out of the box - had to trade it in for a new one (Lowes was great about that by the way). Broke down after second mow - got it repaired and it lasted me the season and now it is dead for good. I ended up getting less than a year out of it.
