The lawnmower cuts great ,it did not bog down in high grass .what I don't care for is it came with no instructions on how to put it together .that was kinda easy ,but how to adjust the brake and turning rods leave me wonder if I have the 100% right.also it is a bear to pull it backward. That is very important. There is no instruction manual for the operation of the mower .But I do like the mower.I wish it would pull back easier.
