bought our mountfield sp470 from b&q .started off ok. now 2 summers on it sounds like a bag of spanners....hunting on and off ,cuts out. Rubbish in my opinion....save your pennies and get something with a honda engine.

The Mountfield SP470 is flimsy...front wheel is broken, handle sheared, not enough power to move of its own accord...self-propelled?...engine is fine...after one and a half seasons

Don't buy this Mountfield SP470 mower. I wish I had read the other reviews on this site before buying the sp470. It looks like my problems are not unique.
