Yard Force 21" Self-Propelled RWD Walk Behind Mowe

Works good on the first use.. Ordered online. Went to SamsClub store for pick up. Like the Yard Force 21" Self-Propelled RWD Walk Behind Mower so far no problem.

Good Mower - sticking with gas power for now

I find this a good lawn mower for our 1/2 acre lot with lots of trees and hills. It has enough power, is fairly light, is well thought out and executed, and the self propelled feature is solid. Returned a Greenworks electric mower for it’s for lack of sufficient power for tall/thick grass and probably also for mulching leaves in the fall.

Great for the price

So far not bad. I’ve only mowed three times, so I can’t attest to whether it lasts, but the rear wheel drive makes it much easier on my back. It starts very easily and also goes right through a little taller grass that my older mower would have stalled in. But for issues to follow, I would have given at five stars. First, I wish the RWD moved a little faster and 2nd, the mulch bag is much smaller than my previous mower. It Hass to be emptied way too often. Also, the bag detaches from the bag frame next to the ground. For the price though, I am still giving it a four.

Satisfied lawn mower customer

Good quality for the price. The speed of the self-propelled rear wheels is good. Only issue I have had is when trying to change directions by pushing down on handle to raise front wheels. You have to disengage the self-propelled rear wheels before pushing down on handle to turn.

Thank you for purchasing the Yard Force 21" Self-Propelled Mower. I am glad you are happy with the performance of your mower. Yes, you do have to disengage the drive when turning a self-propelled mower. But it is worth it the first time you cut thick grass up an incline.

Great minus a few minor details

It came pretty-much all set up as the handle is awesome, allowing for quick storage, just as advertised. It started right up and continues to, cuts great and moves along at a suitable speed. I wish the propeller handle was rounded at the sides, for faster slowing down and speeding up (at the end of "lanes", etc). I also wish the lower part of the handle loosened like the top). Overall, would recommend.

Some good some bad.

Good: Good price, I purchased on sale. Mower was easy to assemble and started on first pull. Liked the no oil change feature and ease of height adjustment. Bad: Mower has no variable speed which makes it way too slow. Control levers are too far apart making it difficult to control with one hand. Mower did pull to the right and had to constantly adjust. For some reason I couldn’t get a true 22”cut and had to mow over about two inches of my last pass. Would not recommend.

Drive/Kill Controls Backward. Drive speed to Fast

The choke bar & drive bars a backwards from the way they should. The drive bar is so far away from the handle you can barely get your thumb on it to push it forward. Combine that with a drive that when it engages pops a wheelie ripping your thumb off the drive bar. Despite what the manufacturer claims they are using as a standard for the speed it is way faster then the Average person would walk causing you to try & Pump the drive to keep up. They should have field tested it wit average humans instead of using some government or institutional “standard”. All of my other numerous self propelled mowers you squeezed the choke/kill bar forward to the handle & “pulled the drive back(2-3”) to the handle(not 4-5”). The jerky wheel spinning drive could easily cause loss of control. Hopefully in a couple of months the belts will stretch & have less grab or I may try replacing them with looser belts. I definitely see why Sam’s Club or mfg were knocking $100 OFF the price…to get rid of them.

Not happy.

Purchased this mower from Sam's Club online. It was shipped to our home and upon arrival we attepted to assemble it. A quick check of the box contents against the parts list revealed that the lower handle was not present. Three phone calls and three weeks later the missing part finally arrived and the assembly was completed at last. Alas, the handle does not lock into place for mowing, it still moves up and down. Perhaps another missing part we don't know about?

Not a good deal!

I bought this on clearance and thought it was a good deal. I ended up returning it. The main reason is that it blows grass everywhere. The bag does not seal well so grass blows back at the operator as well as out the front onto the deck. It was also hard to maneuver. This may have been a function of the high rear wheels. It also seemed harder to move backwards than forwards

The bag can be a bit tricky it's like a J-hook that snugs to mower, and you also had to make sure you lifted the discharge chute which lays on top of the bag,Sorry for the experience.-YardForce
