A unique electronic capacitor discharge ignition makes starting quick and easy. View larger. | Reliable, Easy–to-Use Tecumseh Engine
A 6.5 HP Tecumseh Engine ensures that this mower is a powerful, long-lasting performer. Patented Easy Start technology means that getting going is quick and painless. A unique electronic capacitor discharge ignition creates a hotter spark than other ignition systems, which translates into easier, more reliable starts. The engine itself has pressurized oil distribution for improved durability and performance over time, and it offers an instant response to changing load conditions, so you always stay in control of your mower and have enough power at your disposal. Simple, Hand-Push Drive System for Easy Maneuvering
Lightweight and easy to steer around trees, shrubs, and walkways, this mower employs a simple, hand-push drive system. This classic setup is less complicated than self-propelled models, meaning this mower has fewer parts with the potential to break or wear out. A durable, lightweight, 21-inch steel deck also contributes to easy maneuvering. Ergonomic features like the SimpleSet adjustable handle and soft comfort grips keep you comfortable. Easy-turn wheels and a maneuverable, lightweight body minimize the amount of effort you have to expend mowing, while a one-handed easy lift bag helps to keep you from straining yourself while disposing of yard waste. 3-in-1 Functionality for Serious Versatility
With the option to use this Lawn-Boy as a mulching mower, you can avoid cumbersome bagging and time-consuming raking, and the nutrients in your grass clippings are effectively recycled, helping maintain the overall health of your lawn. If you've got tall, wet grass to contend with or lots of leaves on the lawn that make mulching impractical, you can convert quickly and easily to rear bagging or side discharge of lawn waste without having to use any tools. Additionally, you can adjust the cutting height on this mower from one to four inches for optimum lawn health in a variety of conditions. And when it's time to stash your mower in the garage, you'll appreciate the compact storage options that two easy-stow knobs afford. These simple, oversized knobs make it easy to adjust the handle for storage in a 180-degree position. This lawn mower is backed by a two-year complete coverage warranty. California residents should take note that this mower is non-CARB compliant. What's in the Box
Mower, grass bag, side discharge chute, bottle of oil, and operators manual.

I can't figure out why I wasted my time trying to fix the old junker, I don't know why I trawled craigslist looking for second hand mowers and I don't know why I thought I would luck out on a good bargain Mower (you know the brands). Eventually after touring 3 Box stores I went to professional Mower shop to ask for advise - they steered me in direstion of the Lawn Boy as good value for money and worth the premium over lesser mowers.
I am so glad I took their advise cos I love this mower, and I venture you will too if - you want a great looking lawn, great mower design, easy handling, and the option to repair vs replace.
I'm kinda nuts about my lawn. With my last mower I had to cut the grass twice - in opposite directions - to get the even cut I wanted ... not anymore.
Plus, because of the LB's wide wheels, I don't get the "wheel ridges" you get next day or day after when a heavy mower / narrow wheels / and damp grass conspire to fold the grass over while mowing, etc.
Plus, In this category all the other grass bags are smaller than the LB's so I can pick up more ... but also, the LB has a design that the bag really fills the bag ... unlike last mower which did have big bag but only filled 50% before dropping.
Plus I love the design, from the Starting pull, to the EZ off bag, to the EZ set wheels - The machine is a dream to operate.
Plus, the tank of gas lasts forever ... Ok, I made this one up, but you should seriously consider this mower.

I bought one of these from Home Depot 3 years ago and it's been nothing but trouble. Replaced 2 coils and it won't start right now. 1 year after I bought it the self-propell stopped working and Lawn boy said I did it and wouldn't cover it under the warranty. It stinks.
Not A Bad Mower, But... October 11, 2007

This is probably a pretty good mower. I bought it on sale because my 18 year old Lawn Boy began acting up. This one has started the first try every time.
But, this is really just a Toro mower with green paint and a Lawn Boy sticker. Toro bought out Lawn Boy several years ago, and the transformation is now complete. Gone are the old two cycle Lawn Boy engines. Now you can have a Tecumseh or a Honda engine, same as on a Toro, and I doubt either one will last as long as my old 2 cycle Lawn Boy.

Purchased this mower 3 weeks ago, ordered it on monday, arrived on wednesday, VERY FAST ! Started on the 1st pull after I added gas/oil. Always had Snappers in the past, it was time for a new one. First NEW mower I've bought in 30 years! Quite happy with it so far. Only feature I wish it had was an adjustable throttle control, but seems it's not necessary as I always run it on full throttle anyway. I would recommend the mower for anyone looking for a good reliable at a reasonable price and comes with a 2 year warranty. I especially like the semi-pneumatic tires, padded grip and ease of starting. Also, I wish the bag were as big as the one on the Snapper, but for less than 1/2 the price I really cannot complain and the shipping was free !

This mower is one of the best mowers I've used. It replaced one of those Home Depot $100 side discharge mowers. Light year's ahead of that one. Usually starts on 1 or 2 pulls of the cord. YOu can side discharge, bag or mulch. I mostly use the mulch. No bagging and my lawn looks better for it.
