An excellent buy.:
I love this mower. Its relatively light and very manuverable. I've used it a few times now to cut a full yard of lawn and I got it done in a manner of minutes. One time my wife actually came out and took over from me - she pushed it with ease and didn't even break a sweat. My neighbors have also seen how good it is and borrowed it to do their lawns as well - "Better Get Your Own Next Time!" Pros: Powerful, mulching feature, very manuverable, cost, weight. Cons: Lousy operating manual, only one speed setting.

Very good mower:
I moved into a new house with a lawn and needed a mower. My former house had a small piece of property and the neighbor did the lawn in exchange for me removing snow. The mower arrived with the handle folded down, grass catcher and a bottle of oil. I followed the instructions and in less than 10 minutes pulled the started and off I went. Setting up the grass catcher took most of the time. The instructions for that were a little lacking. It is powerful and light enough to be very maneuverable. It will stall out when the grass catcher gets full, but otherwise a decent lawn mower for the price.

My introduction to motor lawnmowers or what they don't tell you:
The manuf. does not tell you that wet grass is a no no. That damp grass will block up the catcher basket & you can not operate without the catcher attached. That blue grass areas are almost all damp except during drout, causing the operator to empty clean out & dry the catcher about every 50feet of mowing. The manuf. refused to allow a return of the machine because I put gas in it in order to run it. Follow that logic. Clearly Hi tech has not yet been discovered for lawns. Great Scott, what will we do? Use sheep, a scythe, the old push model, roundup, but NOT POULAN.

Good Buy:
Really like this mower. It starts good and does a nice job on my lawn. It is easy to handle and I would recommend it to others.
