Fantastic mower for the price

The first reviewer must be inexperienced when using a self propelled lawnmower. The mower IS variable speed and will go as slowly as you want it to. I own this mower and have used many mowers over the past 30 plus years. The speed is controlled by how much you depress/squeeze the bail, which activates the drive system. The bail is like the accelerator on your car or truck. You can press on the gas pedal a little and barely move the vehicle, or you can stomp the pedal and really move on. For the price, this lawnmower can't be beat.
Great mower

I have used this mower a few times now and love it. I don't mow my lawns on a regular basis. I usually wait for it to get about 6 inches high first. I used this mower without the bag utilizing it's mulching capabilities. It was able to digest the tall grass as well as all the leaves I neglected to rake up first. I had no trouble starting it even after it had been sitting for a while without fuel additives. The self propelling action took a bit of time for me to get used to(Dad always bought the crappy push mowers)but works great. I actually don't mind mowing the lawn now. Well yeah, I guess I still hate it.
Good so far

Relatively quiet, pretty fair power. Does not bog down too badly on thick grass. The speed if the drive is variable, and works over a pretty wide range of speeds. My wheel level adjusts were damaged in shipping, but bent them back into place and ready to go. Looks like the enamel finish on the body of the mower is a pretty fair coat, and will hopefully fend of rust for a while. Rest of the covers are the standard platic used everywhere nowadays. Now just to see how well it wears.
Simle and effective

Have only used it twice so far, but I am very happy with it. Easier to manuever in tight spaces and to control speed than my previous Honda and fires up easier to. Fired up immediately on the first pull with out having to deal with any chokes or primers. Cut very cleanly and bagged leaves and twigseasily in one pass. Covers all the bases for me.
Nice mower

I've used this mower for about a month now. So far I'm very pleased with it's performance. I've tried it in both mulching and bagging mode and it works well in both modes. The bag is a bit of a hassle to get on and off cleanly so I'll mainly use it in mulching mode. I haven't used the side discharge mode, but the attachment was sent quickly when I registered and requested it online. The mower had a couple of minor cosmetic defects, probably from shipping damage. But it's a mower so I'm not too worried about it.

I was trying to decide between this and the model without self-propel. I have a small lawn and didn't think I would really need it. Now I'm glad I went with a self-propel model. These mowers are heavy enough that the self-propel comes in handy, particuarly if you have even a slight incline to deal with.

The mower almost always starts on the first pull for me, even when the pull is kind of weak. The only time it's required two pulls is on a cold start. Warm starts always take one pull, which is good because the engine is killed when you have to let go of the handle to move something out of the way.

Assembly out of the box is not very hard and requires no tools. The only problem I had was that the plastic pieces on the rear wheel height adjustment levers were pushed down too far causing the adjustment not to lock.

The only thing I wish the mower had is a handle that folds for storage. But that's pretty minor. I think it's a great value and highly recommend it.
