Husqvarna HU800AWDH (22") 190cc Honda High Wheel All-Wheel Drive Self-Propelled Lawn Mower

I have owned Toro mowers for 30 years. This new mower started at first pull of the throttle, is quieter and the larger bag collects almost twice as much as Toro, adjusting wheel height is a breeze. Removing bag takes much more effort, though. Controlling speed with handles takes time...machine wants to run fast like sled dog. Perfect in all ways for me. Might recommend smaller, less powerful models for anyone wanting more control over their mower.

Bought this for cutting the "perimeter only" of my 1.5 acre property of which I cut the majority with my 60 inch tractor..Works well for hilly terrain, can be a pain when you try to pull it backwards without fully nudging it forward a tad to disengage the drive so wheels don't drag from not always disengaging..After about 3 months of use the wheels started to get a lot of side play and were wobbling as if something was loose..It was not loose it was the wheels on the rear were falling apart internally as the drive design is flimsy "all held together" with a external C-clip which does not stay in place and after it goes the drive is shot because if you replace it the problem is not solved because it is not significant to hold everything together in the first place so the fix doesn't last..After a year or summer of use, maybe 20 times around the perimeter the drive wheel was shot in the rear on one side and the clip useless as the shaft wears and won't hold it..Nice mower but a cheap setup in the drive as it runs good but is useless now as one wheel gets the power in the rear and it wants to pull to the left always so I push this heavy beast without power to get a straight cut...Just not made to last after you disassemble to see why it broke, its junk...Could have been made better with a few simple better steps but mass production is what mattered here..Its in the trash after a year now but I still have the motor...

The mower started out great although the instructions were unclear about why the pull cord was supposed to be stretched out and secured in a metal loop. Unfortunately the plastic device that served to keep the mulching discharge flap open so that the grass could be evacuated rather than mulched broke in the first 5 minutes, so I need to order several more since I can see them braking off every time the mower is used. After about two hours of use the clutch started slipping and the adjustment needed tightening to get the mower to continue to drive itself. There's not much variance in the clutch engagement. It is either full bore or not at all. The user instructions say to never drag the mower backwards, but I don't know how you could possibly use a mower properly without ever having to pull back on it.

Mower arrives in 2 days and in great shape. I was more upset at FedEx for delivering the box and setting it out in the rain instead of under the eaves. The mower started with the first pull. Mows and mulches perfectly. I am extremely happy with my purchase and Mowers Direct.

This mower runs great over very rough terrain.

This mower takes on anything I throw at it, even tall wet grass. The cleaning attachment for the hose is brilliant. I turn off the gas to the carb, start it, attach the hose and by the time the carb runs dry it's clean underneath and ready to store.

I read a LOT of reviews prior to purchasing this mower. Now that I've used this mower about a half dozen times I'd definitely recommend it.

I mow about 1/3 acre VERY hilly lot. The all-wheel drive is wonderful, just what I'd hoped. Lots of torque and lots of power. It does clump a little as others mentioned but not a deal breaker. I use either the mulch setting or side exit and both are fine. I don't use the catcher.

I'm very happy so far. It's pricey but probably worth it. One other thing. Some said it was too heavy. I think for my purposes the weight actually is a plus since it doesn't just skip over the ground like lighter versions.

This mower reminds me of playing in the yard with my Tonka Trucks---it drags me all over the place. Should work out to be the best mower I've ever used- or owned.

If you have to do a lot of pulling, I would not recommend this machine. It is very heavy. On long runs, it's a dream

This mower operates well in every way. If it proves to be reliable in the long term I will be very satisfied with my purchase.

I needed a new mower and decided to splurge and get one with all-wheel drive. Also wanted a really powerful mower as I prefer to mulch rather than collect lawn clippings. The 190 CC Honda motor has plenty of power and usually starts on the first pull. The wheels have so much power that the first time I used it the mower took off and I fell flat on my face! Now I've moved up the learning curve and it is very easy to control. Great mower and a plenty good value.
