Excellent Mower!

I bought this mower last August because my Cub Cadet rear wheel drive push mower died. I looked at the Toro, John Deere, and many other similar mowers, but when I saw this online, I had to check it out. The Snapper name really caught my interest because I know they are reliable. I love the key start,... read full review »

fast

I bought this mower based on the reviews here. It starts great and is fast. Lost handle knob and bolt, don't know if it broke or loosened up. Grass gets caught underneath somewhere between belt and transmission, preventing it from being abled to be pulled backwards, seems to still be in slight forward... read full review »

Love it!

Love Love Love it! Just took it out for the first time today. So easy to use that I had fun mowing! I have a 1/5 acre lot and my first mow of the season I had to empty the bag 9 or 10 times. So, yes, the bag is small, but I'm still VERY happy with my purchase! Also, there's a battery hooked up to the electric ignition and they recommend a 48 hour charge before use, just fyi.

We are so pleased that we bought our Snapper 675 Series 190cc 21'' Briggs & Stratton 3-In-1 Rear Bag Key Start Rear Wheel Drive Lawn Mower!  It handles great that the self propelled feature makes it easy to mow over hills and valleys in our lawn.  It is very easy to push, and very easy to start both with the rope pull and with the key. There is only one drawback, but it is minor.  You have to push the mower forward before you can pull it backwards.  All in all you won't go wrong if you buy this mower.

great value for money

we just purchased our 1st house & it has a large lawn. We were looking everywhere for a reliable lawnmower that does not cost an arm & a leg. Found this on sears.com with great reviews. Used it for over 6 months now, no issues apart from regular maintenance type stuff.

  I purchased this machine to replace our old mower that was 20 years old.  This Snapper mower looked great on the Sears display and seemed to have all the features necessary,  I've always associated the Snapper brand with quality but that has certainly changed.  This lawnmower is  built to be cheap, and it shows.  It blows grass all over the mower and operator which means you need to clean the top of the engine off every time you need to refuel it, which is often as it uses a lot of gas.  The knobs on the side are easily broken as they really stick out and are made of cheap plastic. ...

We bought this mower because of its power and mulching ability, and very much because of its sturdy handle -- as we have some hills and dips in our yard and we were breaking handles on other mowers in less than a season!

This one has held up well.  No signs of wear on the handle, and the handle height is adjustable for different height users.  It has an excellent one-lever system for changing the mower height.  Sometimes chokes a bit when mulching taller grass, but certainly not as bad as many mowers advertised as mulchers.  I never use the bag, so I have no experience with that.

I actually...

Disclaimer:  First Use Comments Only.  This is not a long term experience review.  It's an initial impressions review.  6 months from now, I'll revisit this to see how it is holding up.

I purchased this mower after returning a Sears 48v battery powered unit which was actually painful to use it was so heavy.  Right out of the box, I could adjust the handlebars up higher than the original unit.  24-48 hours to charge the battery seemed quite excessive but after an overnight charge it started within 2 seconds for first power up.  Unit is shipped without oil in it but it is included.  Simple...

DO NOT BUY

This mower started falling apart the 1st day I used it.  The 1st event was the "glued-on" wheel hubcaps fell off.  Increasingly difficult to start, soon as I was exhausted before ever even getting to the actual lawn mowing.

Who gave this mower 5 stars?  Does Snapper force their Marketing department onto the retail sites to place false ratings on their mowers?

Snapper USED to make a GREAT product.  Sadly, this is no longer true.  The mower started shaking so badly last year (In it's second short season as we live in Delaware) that it spun off the plastic knobs from the collapsible mower...

Not what I expected

I really wanted to like this mower. The reviews looked good. But after getting it home it was not what I thought it was and I returned it. I didn't like the single height adjustment as there is an exposed rod on the side that accomplishes the raising. The key for the starter is small and thin. The rear bag is small and difficult to hook on as it is in the way of several cables I had to move. Finally the power propelled level didn't seem to do much. There was no tension on it and you had to squeeze it all the way tight before it seemed to do  anything. Not much of a speed control - nothing or full?...

I have had a few lawn mowers and am very impressed with this model "Snapper".  It is self propelled and therefore it helps you with the chore of having to push hard and ending up in the middle of the chore tired and exhausted.  With this quality, you are sure to be able to finish and not end up being exhausted.  It has a 21 inch wide cutting blade, hence covering a nice span of space.  The blade is easy to change and clean.  The bag snaps on easily for attaching and removing.  It is of good size to handle a large load.  I am sure this product is of great use and quality for the person purchasing...

This mower is just what  all the reviews said it would be - great. I was a little hesitant t spend this much considering I will just use it as a trim mower, to reach the places my rider won't go, but I am very happy I bought it. Right out of the box , it started right up, and has every use since. It will go as fast or slow as you want to go, if you have the drive fully pulled in, you will be almost running with the mower it is so fast. You can go along mowing with one hand if you want , it is that easy.

          I was so happy to be using it that I went ahead and mowed my front yard...

We got this mover yesterday and we love it. We were going to buy Craftsman Model # 37436 but reading reviews were uncertain if we made a good choice (too heavy, loud, flimsy handle). We checked online what outlet stores have and found one in clearance . It was $257.95 (the battery charger was missing), we negotiated it down to $207.95. It was a great bargain. We mowed the 1' tall grass last night and it was pretty much easy. The mower starts from the first pull; cool or hot( I didn't get a chance to use a key start feature because I don't have a battery charger but I'll definitely get one), the...

We recently purchased a John Deere self-propelled  lawnmower which we kept all of two days before returning it for a refund.  We then decided to try a Snapper self-propelled lawnmower with a keystart.  This lawnmower was very easy to guide and turn.  It was a cinch to empty the bagger, which held a surprisingly large amount of clippings.  The mowing was finished in half the time that it usually took us with our old mower.  It is easy to back up and doesn't lock like the first mower we tried.

We are very satisfied with our new purchase and would highly recommend this lawnmower to anyone who...

Can't go wrong with a Snapper

I had a Snapper for 12 years and when I needed another lawn mower I said, "why am i looking for something else". I purchased this mower and it is great, the key start is great for us aging youths and the self propelled feature makes it fun to cut the lawn again. You can't go wrong with a snapper, Kudos to B and S as well.
