Craftsman 190cc 21" Rear Bag Push Lawn Mower —
I am so frustrated with this mower. We bought a new home and the yard was fully sodded front and rear. The first couple of years the grass was thin and sparce and the mower was fine just mulching all the time. We hired True Green lawn care to handle the growth and weed treatments. When the grass started getting thick, I started noticing uncut grass all over the place evethough I overlap and change directions. I noticed everytime the engine would slow down even the slightest, there would be uncut grass. I was going crazy cutting my entire yard twice each time. I also noticed that the wheels were bending the grass over just enough with each pass that the mower would miss cutting those blades and they would rise back up as if to say HA HA you missed me. When you look at lawnmowers at the stores, the same 6.75 Torque 190cc engine is on many models that cost much more than this one, They even have self propelled features that rob power from the same engine used here. How is it possible that there are so many happy people with mowers with this same engine and are not missing blades even in high grass? The deck design is just as important as the engine. I switched to bagging and purchased the best mulching and bagging blade they sell for 20.00 and bagging helped the engine bogging somewhat but still missed grass when it gets thick. There is no way that 6.75 means that this pushmower has the same real world power of the 5HP lawn mower we had when I was a kid. That mower never bogged in thick grass and I never had to mow each area twice. The reason the same engine on this mower costs so much less than other mowers is because you get what you pay and perfomance takes a hit with a horrible deck design. Look at Honda mowers and you will see a high circular tunnel for the clippings to get cut many times and the vacuum effect is very strong which helps pull the blades up to be cut.
