Know before you buy
The Personal Pace system senses your walking speed and automatically adjusts the mower's speed to match your stride. There are no levers or buttons to push; the mower simply moves as fast or as slow as you do.
Yes, the SmartStow feature is specifically designed to allow the mower to be stored in a vertical, upright position. This significantly reduces the floor space required in your garage or shed.
No, the electric start system allows you to fire up the engine with the push of a button. It eliminates the need for manual pulling, making the mower much easier to start.
The dual-blade system, combined with Vortex Technology, cuts grass clippings into ultra-fine particles. This creates a high-quality mulch that returns nutrients to your soil more effectively than standard single-blade mowers.
