briantal's Review of Suffolk Punch P17S Lawn Mower

27th Mar 2007

Overall Rating

Good Points

When working it produces a good cut but takes continuous adjustment to keep it that way. Especially useful on soft and damp lawns as the roller spreads the weight very evenly.


Bad Points

Not very well made and generally very unreliable. Expect to spend quite some time on maintenance. The smallest stone is likely to buckle the blades. The throttle cable adjustment slips, main handles snaps after a couple of seasons and some models have starting problems.


General Comments

Overall the Suffolk Punch P17S Petrol Cylinder Lawn Mower is very poorly made but it is very difficult to find an alternative petrol cylinder mower in the price range. It would be better if it was slightly more expensive if the quality could be improved.

I have had two of these mowers and would not recommend them. Whilst the second one does start better (after electronic component replaced) they have both been constituently unreliable. Shame really because when it works I quite like it but frustration kicks in too frequently.
