The GF bought one last week during Home Depot's 10% off sale which ends today. We got the $350 model for $315. Easy to assemble and the sucker fired on the first pull of my arthritic shoulder. The oil that came with it was 30wt. I dont like the Briggs either, but a 3 year warranty eased the pain somewhat. The bagger is real easy to use according to her son who mows for her. Didn't realize it was a rear drive self propel. Guess I will try it out for myself to see if it is the cat meow so to speak. Personally I gave up on Briggs engines. The last three I had had carb problems and only worked properly for a couple of years. The last mower I bought for my property was a Yard Machines from HD with China made OHV engine, made by who knows, but it starts and runs like a champ. Very easy on fuel. Will run about 4 hours on a tank which seem to be about 2 qts. Anyone know who makes the motor?
