i'll start from beginning. went to home depot pulled box off rack and $240 bucks later its in my driveway. after opening box it was built in 5 minutes
without any tools. filled crankcase with 20 oz. of included oil and put in some gas and it fired up on first pull. no choke or priming bulb nothing. just pull and it starts. awesome briggs motor. double horsepower of my old craftsman and half the sound. the exhaust pipe actually muffles sound. not like those tuna fish cans on the side of most motors. mower is very light and easily manuverable. just what i wanted. something simple. so it has a few holes on the deck used on the more expensive mower. BIG DEAL! it just means to me i got the same quality steel deck the better model gets.doesn't have any bells and whistles i don't need and without $500 price tag. cut so cleanly and evenly. sucked up all clippings. like a vacuum for my lawn. even some twigs i thought were just going flung off to the side were sucked up and munched into the bag. the chubby wheels floated over grass and i was done in a snap. wished i had more lawn.the clipping bag comes off easily and empties without making a mess. plus its a cool kawasaki ninja green! so happy i didn't spend so much more on the flashy honda. it just looks and feels like quality. highly recommended to my jealous neighbor. to you too

Close to perfect

Reviewer: Mark H. Eisenbies,

I like this no-frills mower. I'll go along with the other two positive reviews and note that this is one of Consumer Reports top rated push mowers.

Pros-
- Jointless, one-piece handle. Past push mowers have screws halfway up that loosen and make the mower harder to maneuver. The one piece handle makes this nice.
- two pull start guarantee, or they say they'll fix it.
- Briggs and Stratton engine.

Cons-
- Jointless handle really transmits vibration. I'd buy the "Good Vibrations" anti-vibration grip. Your hands may not tingle as much.

Also note the complaint that there is no side discharge, there's a card to get one if you want it. Also, the complaint that there are extra holes in the deck... just means it's the same deck that they use for their better models; big deal, it's painted.
