Good points

Good Points

  • Very good catcher performance.
  • Quick-release folding handle.
  • Wash nozzle to clean the underside of the cowling.
  • Self-propelled drive with eight speeds.
  • Upturned handle with soft rubber grip at a good height. The blade-control bar blends in well with the handle bar and the palm of the hands.
Bad points

Bad Points

  • Only OK for mulching performance.
  • Vibration of the handle is noticeable but not too uncomfortable.
  • The control lever is stiff to operate.
  • The cutting height adjuster requires a fair amount of effort to move due to the heavy spring-loaded lever.
