| About - Toro Recycler 20333 |
|---|
| This 22-inch, self-propelled gas mower has a 190cc-displacement Briggs & Stratton engine. It can re-cut clippings until they're small enough to settle back into the lawn as mulch, bag them into a removable catcher, or discharge them through a side chute. When changing the grass-cutting height, each wheel of the mower must be individually adjusted. This model includes a blade-brake clutch, which allows you to move away from the machine without having to restart the engine when you return. A washout port also is included for cleaning the mower deck. The model comes with a 2-year warranty. This model is similar to the Toro Recycler 20334. |

Comment:
In my world this is not an inexpensive piece of machinery. Features except for the engine are cheaply done. Happy with how it starts and generally satisfied with the self-propelled and walking functions. However, brake cable assembly (cheap design) broke after just 4 month. Back to HD for warrantly replacement. [...] Am now nervously ready to start mowing again.

Comment:
I just received a Toro notice in the mail today (7/14/2011), acknowledging they have a problem with the transmission that drives the rear wheels on several of their power mowers. My unit was purchased prior to the parade of negative reviews posted in CR. Beware if you are considering purchasing a Toro--there is a loooong list of models affected. It is noted that Toro provided a voucher extending the warrenty for the transmission for 1 year--thanks.
