First, the mower is a good value for the price. Easy to start & adjusting wheels for cutting level.

However, the engine needs to be upgraded to at least 6.75 horsepower. For my lawn it appears underpowered and this is a self propelled unit. Secondly, the back wheel support brackets(axles) need to be stronger as both wheels tend to bow inward from weight of the mower. Finally, adjusting wheels is easy; but, leveling of the cut has been difficult. Maybe, its my lawn being uneven, not for sure.

I found the mower to operate excellently. It starts easy, its bags wonderfully, it mulches excellently. Someone complained about the back wheels tilting in, well that has no affect on the operation of the mower. Its not on an axle but connected directly to the mower on ballbearings. The wheel is 12" high and that can be expected. The throttle handle and self-propelled handle are easy to use while mowing. It most certainly has enough power to get the job done. The mower has excellent qualities; the ability to wash the deck by connecting a hose to the hose attachment on the mower and run the mower while the high pressure cleans. It cleans under the mower very well. The price is excellent for the quality of mower. The FWD is great for me becauase I am disabled and unable to push a mower. I would recommend this mower to anyone whithout question. Well I think the mower is great regardless what these other people say or think. You must take care of your investments. I had no problem with my rear guard being eat-up. Its a great valve.

Collects grass in the bag very well, even when grass is wet. Powerful and goes at a good pace.

This Spring I treated myself to a new, self propelled mower. This model, specifically.

I have never been so dissatisfied with a new purchase as I have with this. I have all kinds of power tools and use them as intended and with care. This mower is a mess!!

Within just a few times using it, the rear skirt caught up under the blades & was mangled to pieces, the side diffuser got bumped and one of the 2 clips broke off, the motor cover screws backed out of their holes & are long gone, and finally, the bolt that holds the cover on the self propelled belt took forever to remove because it's crooked!

The motor is wonderful, just as any Briggs & Stratton motor usually is, but the construction of the mower itself...total garbage. Everything is molded plastic & it is NOT sturdy and certainly isn't worth the $335 I paid for it!

My opinion....find another manufacturer with the same motor & you'll likely be fine. Read this & buy it anyway...just remember you've been warned!

I'm not sure how good my poulan pro realy is on the second atempt to mow my yard the rightrear wheel broke, the spokes broke away frome the hub. I've order a new wheel from adealer. been wait two weeks for a new wheel the dealer told me it would take about a week still havn't recieve the part. about to call amason to replace the mower. my lawn grows long as i wait not a happy camper

Well, the one I bought must have been handled pretty roughly as one of the wheel brackets was broken when I got the mower out of the box. I called the customer service (mower, not Amazon) and they were worthless. Bought a new bracket and put it on (about $10, inc. $7 to ship -- still easier than taking mower to authorized dealer). The mower smoked badly on startup, so we'll just have to see what the future holds. Jury definitely out right now.

Mower is still working fine, tho construction is flimsy especially around the rear wear wheels and the electrical harness is exposed to being easily damaged

Hello:

We had issues with this mower purchase but they were all resolved nicely.
