Husqvarna HU600L (22") 149cc Kohler Self Propelled Lawn Mower

Just bought my mower this weekend. I like the way it handles but, I do have some issues. It was a 600 self propelled. 149cc. It did not have a side discharge. The mower locks up when you pull it backward. There is way too much vibration in the front end of the mower. I am still trying to figure that out. I was mowing a yard that was not that long and when I did not use the grass catcher, I had little balls of grass accumulate on my yard.

I can not say I am 100% happy with the mower. I have a Husqvarna back pack blower and it has been one of the best blowers we have ever had. I think the mower needs a little research on the things that I listed above. I will probably keep the mower but, it could use some research and development. I would not recommend the mower but, would recommend Husqvarna equipment. This is the first time I have not been 100 % thrilled with their product.

I bought my HU6OOL 3 weeks ago. Started on the first pull. I like the power and torque, rear wheel drive is the only way to go. I have a small hill in my front yard so need to go up and down it a lot. It is night and day better than my old craftsman with front wheel drive. I put on full power and walk right up it no pushing. I removed a wheel and Yes! - real steel bearings not plastic that falls apart after a year. The hose washout helps but you still do have to do better job. I also like the one handle lever to raise and lower the whole mower.

Things I did not care for are: Speed control only for bigger hands, even though there are 2 speed control handles - one for each hand. It takes a considerable amount of pressure to hold them down as you mow. Hands gets tired on large yard. The rubber drag bumper on the back is a pain especially when backing up, probably a stupid safety thing.
