Husqvarna 173cc 21" Kohler Rear Bag Rear Propelled Lawn Mower Reviews

Husqvarna 173cc 21" Kohler Rear Bag Rear Propelled Lawn Mower is a great lawn mower in my opinion, i have never had a problem starting it and it easy to use.it levels up and down with no problem.can't believe i found a mower that is no fuss ,no work.as long as i take care of it and keep it clean after i cut the grass.yay for me =)

I bought this at my local Sears store on sale (clearance) for a heck of a price so I can't really complain.  I've paid up to $350.00 for similar lawn mowers in the past so I felt I was getting a good deal.

Fresh out of the box, it was easy to setup and get it running.  Comes with an optional attachment that allows the mower to be used as a mulcher.  Also comes with a warning tag to fill the engine compartment with the proper oil and level before starting.  A small bottle of oil came supplied so they made it convenient.

Love the color, quality, look and feel of the mower.  Engine is strong,...

I purchased this mower recently to replace a 33" Billy Goat Commercial Zero-Turn walk-behind.  Prior to that I had a Cub Cadet 21" Zero-Turn with a Kawasaki 173cc engine for 7 years.  Didn't need the 33" anymore and was looking for a lighter mower that had the power to mulch, was durable and priced right.  This Husky seems to be the perfect choice.  I have a decent size lawn and this mower really flies.  The Kohler engine is quiet yet plenty powerful and mulches the grass vey well.  I have a very thick lawn and my Cub Cadet would bog down and leave a lot of clumps behind.  Not this mower.  Out of...

I live in Florida with St Augustine grass. It grows fast and is thick. I use the self-mulcher and do not bag the grass.

Here's the low down:

1. Self propulsion. Though a larger back wheel would enhance the ease of movement. It allowed for my lawn to be cut in 35 minutes vs 2 hours with a push. (<1/4 acre)

2. Quality. Get's 95% of the blades, I rarely have to go over.

3. Reliability: For the first three months. Worked like a beauty (I won't go into the other four lawn mowers it took to get this thing right). Carboratuer went bad, had to be replaced. Sears does stand behind their warranty. Now we're...

i really ended up falling in love with this lawn mower. i never can wait until the weekend to cut the grass. even in the winter i always get excitted because i can wait until i get to mow my grass again.

i just love the fact that it has a rear bag. that comes in handy because i use to hate my old lawn mower because it would always shoot back out the grass that i just cut. then i would end up having to rake my lawn afterwards. now i get to skip one step and i get to take the bag off and put the grass cuttings into a bag.

Just tried out my new mower and I am very impressed. The engine is starts very easily and has the necessary power. The mower feels very solid and I feel that it will last quite awhile. The bagger is a bit small but nothing that cant be dealt with. Also as others have written, the trigger to propel the mower will give you a little work out. I personally enjoy the excercise, but this could be a problem for some. Overall I am very satisfied with this mower.

I have read many reviews but never written one, This case deserves it

Had more or less made up my mind on this mower from others reviews and the fact that it is American Made. After doing some shopping and comparing the other brands seemed chincy. I purchased this model, spent a little more than planned but after using it the extra money was well worth it.  Assemblly was a snap, fired right up it did stutter a bit for a few (expected) then ran great. Single height adj. is sweet, variable speed is sweet (any faster you would be speed walking) even at full speed it went through very heavy grass...

I started using this mower at the beginning of the season, and it has outperformed my expectations.  The adjustable speed propulsion system and the Kohler engine make mowing my lawn easy!  It can power through tall grass with ease, but the bag is on the small side and needs to be emptied frequently if the grass is long.

Putting the machine together was simple and  staright foward.  Also, I have never needed to pull the cord more then twice.  In fact the mower started on the first pull today even though it was about 45F here in Michigan today!  The Husky is well worth the money.

I previously owned a Murray 21" mower with rear wheel drive.  When the rear wheel drive stopped working (the 3-speed transmission failed), it was too heavy to push around.

This USA built 21" Husqvarna/Kohler mower is very light and that is what I like the best! With the variable speed lever, I can adjust the mower speed as necessary, and the amazing thing with this mower is that I don't have to use the power drive half the time. I can actally mow my entine lawn without the power assist, inspite of the fact that my back yard is a hill! The mower is light but not cheap! The mower is solidly built,...

I purchased a Craftsman 22" Rear Wheel Drive mower in June to replace an old Craftsman with similiar features.  I was so disappointed with the rear wheels locking up in reverse and how they stick out about two inches beyond the cutting deck (making it impossible to cut near fences and trees).  Finally, the variable speed system took a lot of effort to get it going.  I exchanged it for this Husqvarna today and gave it a try.  WOW!!!  RIght out of box it was one pull (no priming on this model) and off to work.  The engine was surprisingly powerful in thick, tall fescue (Kohler XT-7), I love...

I received this lawnmower as a birthday present since our old Murray had died. I thought about going with Honda since my dad has one, but they were a little bit more expensive and didn't offer a true side discharge. So after doing some research I found this lawn mower. I was drawn to it by the Husqvarna name and also the fact it had a Kohler OHV engine which are widely known for being excellent quality.

When I first mowed my yard it had been close to two months since it was mown. The grass was to high ankle level. The Husqvarna started on the first pull and easily took care of the long grass without...

 I researched this mower hard prior to purchase and am not disappointed with it. I have a medium-large sized residential lot of St Augustine and it keeps it looking SHARP !!! I only had one small problem I was able to fix immediately , the long spring that assists the height adjuster just came flying off on my third mowing. Luckily I was able to retrieve the spring and w a screwdriver and a pair of vicegrips replace it in about 1 minute. It stands up to some minor abuse when I have the neighborhood kid help me w the yard , so in my book it is an outstanding buy. (and I ain't easy to please to...
