I bought on of these (56) 2 years ago. Expensive and I already had a good as new Mountfield SP 550 which I got on the cheap (new) at the end of the B&Q season (about £450). I have a large lawn and I am into my mowers. The Mountfield is a good machine, no problems at all and what's more the leaf pick up in the autumn is terrific. I even ditched the B&D leaf blower. the mower is like a vacuum cleaner for the lawn.Only negative side is NO STRIPES asit has no roller. I bit the bullet and splashed out a fortune on the Hayter. (Over a thousand pounds). But I'm a bloke and we blokes and our lawns...........and you only live once.
Happy with my purchase. Bit difficult to turn though. Wish they would stick on swivel front wheels on these things.
