TCT: **UPDATE** **UPDATE** **UPDATE** **UPDATE**
THE BELOW REVIEW IS COMPLETELY CORRECT BUT FOR A DIFFERENT MOWER!!!! THE COMPANY SENT ME THE WRONG MODEL!!!! THE BELOW REVIEW IS FOR MODEL # PSM 2521CR. I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SHIPPED THE 170 CC MODEL BUT WAS NOT!
This mower has the feel of a child's toy with an engine attached! The front wheels are NOT EVEN ATTACHED to the metal deck, but to a black plastic extension attached to the front of the deck! When you push this mower over less than perfectly flat ground, the plastic front tires dig into the ground preventing any kind of smooth mowing! The plastic connectors holding the handles together are of such poor quality they would not keep connected properly for even the first hour I tried to mow! The plastic safety flap at the back of the mower dragged way too far behind the mower and was not even attached to the deck with bolts or screws. It had three little bits of plastic that you had to turn sideways and stick through holes in the flange along the back of the deck. One of the connectors broke off less than 15 minutes into the first mowing job! The oil cap on this thing DOSEN'T EVEN SCREW ON! IT SNAPS down onto...

Mary L. : My sister was so happy to receive the lawn mower - now she doesn't have to be pushing around the old lawn mower. This was a house warming gift to my sister the "new home owner!"

The Happy Woodworker: I paid $240.47 ($18.97 of it was tax) for this lawn mower. The mower works fine now but I'm not entirely confident that it will be good for the long haul ... which is the reason for the 4 stars (rather than 5). And the reason I say that is because it's a light mower made of light materials (which of course in some ways is good ... it's light weight makes it easier to push around) but doesn't have the heft, nor the width of cut (about an inch less), of the old mower I'm replacing and which lasted 30 years (and based on the heft, construction, and feel of the old mower, that it lasted that long wasn't a surprise). At this point I can't say that I'm expecting this mower to equal the long-term performance of the old mower. However only time will tell.

One thing my old mower had (and which I think all mowers back then had) was a throttle. Depending on what was needed It could be revved up or slowed down. Generally I ran it on low speed and got "good gas mileage" out of it because of that. This new mower (seemingly like all the ones I've seen recently) doesn't have a throttle. So it just runs at a single fairly high speed. Consequently it doesn't seem...
