This Yard Man model is ideal for yards of 2,000 feet or less. At 160 cc, this machine is about average in terms of power, and will work just fine in most circumstances. (If you have a smaller yard and feel like you might need a little less power, see the Yard Man #11A-54MB055. If you're looking for a push mower with similar power, see the Yard Man #11B-439Q756)

Mowing larger areas is a cinch with this self-propelled mower-no pushing for you! This model also features exceptionally large rear wheels. At 12 inches, these make this model extremely maneuverable in tight spots. Like most mowers, this one includes an engagement lever that stops the engine and blade when it's released. This is somewhat less convenient than models that include a blade brake that lets you keep the motor running, but you have to shell out a little more to get this feature.

The mower includes a recoil starter (these start much easier than their stubborn predecessors did-it usually takes one or two pulls to get the engine going) and a choke lever. According to the manual, you may not need to use the choke if the engine is warm or the air temperature is high. The starter handle is mounted halfway up the handle, but you need to bend down to operate the choke lever, which is mounted on the engine.

The 12B-569Q755 features a 3-in-1 deck. This means you can mulch, side-discharge, or collect your clippings in a rear-mount grass catcher. You can also adjust the cutting height via adjustment levers mounted on the wheels.

This is a good, powerful mower that would be well-suited for most yards. Two-year warranty. The premium Honda engine conforms to EPA and CARB regulations. For safety, don't mow on inclines of more than 15 degrees, and always mow across a slope, not up it.--Josh Dettweiler
