Buying A New Push Mower
I need to buy a new push mower since ours is about 20+ years old and on it’s last leg. Growing up my grandfather always had Lawn-Boy push mowers for his yard. I remember how great his mowers were compared to ours and how I always wanted one of these. Over the years I’ve used all kinds of different makes and models and the push mower that has always impressed me most was a Lawn-Boy.
It’s sort of like my obsession with John Deere riding mowers. I won’t own another rider again as there’s nothing like a Deere! That’s probably true about push mowers as well but I have no need to look any further than one of these great Lawn-Boy mowers. With any luck I’ll be able to scrape up enough money at some point in the future to buy the one I’ve shown here.
The Lawn-Boy 10796 Insight Platinum Series 21-Inch Honda GC160 5 HP OHV Gas Powered Engine Self-Propelled Lawn Mower with Sens-a-Speed And Electric Start features the following specifications:
- Honda GCV 160 OHV Engine for premium quality, lightweight, and easy starting (Hard to beat a Honda small engine as far as I’m concerned!)
- Exclusive Sens-a-Speed self-propel system adjusts automatically by sensing your walking speed, up to 5 mph
- 21″ cast aluminum deck for durable, rust-free long life
- Exclusive Ease of Use Features include SimpleSet Handle, Easy Lift Bag, and Quick Stow Lever minimizes the effort to make mowing simpler
- 5-year full warranty
For me the fact that this mower has an aluminum deck and a Honda engine means it’s built to last! Do any of you own one of these? Any input on the quality? Right now I can buy this mower for $650 with FREE shipping !
