It's just OK. Rear discharge is super prone to clogging and it started surging at high throttle blade disengagement and unable to low idle after 1 year. still using it because CBA to clean the carb though I have less excuses now that my workbench is clean.
Got pic from Home Depot website and saw it's 2200 fucking dollars now.
The pic has some extra something on the top of the handle that mine doesn't have but it's very close, I think I bought one or two features below completely decked out but even the most expensive was like 1000, I paid like 800 for it. Holy fuck fuck inflation.

I wouldn't do it again. If I had to buy another I'd buy something with a simple side discharge option. I usually mulch but when I need discharge, I fucking need it and the rear discharge on this thing sucks ass.

Good amount of power and the hydro drive feels amazing though.

6/10 it's OK but it sure isn't my dad's early 90s Toro 5HP with a hole through the magnesium deck he continues to use to this day.
