Craftsman  140cc* Low Wheel Side Discharge Push Mower 50 States

Easy to transport, assemble and use. I love the simplicity and power of this machine. Even if the grass is kind of tall, it will blaze through it and clip it nicely even with the side discharge. Use mulching if the grass is not too tall at time of cut. I had to return one due to failed spark plug, but Sears was easy to deal with and no problems. Save your receipt of course. This machine is significantly lighter than others I have used and has a nice wide cutting deck. About as wide as the wheels. Some old ones I used cut narrower than the wheels. Great price. Very pleased.

bought this after looking at it and others for quite a while. after taking out of box, assembling the handle, and pouring in the gas and oil, the starter cord would not pull out more than 4 inches. fiddled with it for like 30 minutes and decided it was time to return to store. the sales rep did not know why it did that, and we opened up multiple other boxes in which they all did the same thing. they did not know what was happening, but said they would have the mechanic look at them- they thought, as do I that it had to be a safety feature of some sort. They gave me the floor model, and it works wonderful. mowed through thick grass without trouble at all. Note: do not attempt to cut taller grass in mulching mode as it will bog down at stall out. after putting the shoot on, it did an amazing job. only used it once now, but it starts up with almost no effort pulling the rope, and always the first time everytime.

This mower did start up on the 1st pull, but the carburetor leaked when mowing on a hill. I can't believe that Briggs & Stratton didn't include a drain plug for oil on this engine. I returned this one for something I can maintain for many years.

Easy to put together. Easy to get started. Just add included oil and your own gas. Started first time and every time since. Easy to adjust height of wheels.

Easy to put together. Started easy for me which was important because I had to be able to mow the yard while husband was deployed. Only used it once so far but so far so good.

Judging from previous reviews I was a little hesitant on purchasing this product. But after receiving it and getting it running, I can tell you that any of the reviews referring to the wheel height is pretty much all operator error. But not all, the numbers for the rear wheel adjustments are a little off from where the wheels actually lock in. The lock in location is just above or in front of (which ever way you want to look at it) the number you want to lock it in at. I would suggest checking the spark plug gap and sharpening the blade before using it. The first time I used it, the idle was a little irregular and it definitely cut like the blade was dull. The only thing I wish it had would be a throttle control.

We just purchased this. I find that it does not have a very sharp cutting edge. It seems to push grass blades down instead of cut. So after a few hours the blades of grass pop back up all over the place.

This is unbelievable, ordered this product and was delivered only to find out the lawn mower will not start...Placed an order to exchange which i had to pick up and it gets worse. The second time still will not work, they told me to have it sent to repair center closest one being almost 30 miles away. Please save yourself the headache with this brand and not purchase it. I buy online all the time and never have i had a more inconvenient experience. Craftman lawn mower not worth a dime

This is a good value for the average home owner.

RE: No oil plug...the overwhelming majority of push mowers do not have oil drain plugs anymore, whether Briggs/Stratton, Kohler, or Honda engine. I guess the industry as a whole has decided on this. RE: Rear being lower than the front? If you measure the height from the bottom of the deck to the wheel hub, it is the same front and back. Possible that you are cutting at too low of a level. Try raising your deck height, with both the front and back deck heights being on the same setting so that you get an even cut.
