Yard-Man 12b-569Q755 Gas Powered Lawn Mower

The Yard-Man 12b-569Q755 Gas Powered Lawn Mower is built with a 160cc Honda Gas Engine. That means you’re going to get plenty of power. Oh, before I go in to the review in detail I want to let everyone know that if you have a large lawn and need power to get through thick turf an electric lawn mower simply won’t do. It will stop, slow, and eventually lose power on you because it has to work harder to get through those thicker, rougher areas of your lawn. Just a thought anyway.

So, what makes the Yard-Man 12b-569Q755 Gas Powered Lawn Mower special? Aside from the powerful Honda Gas Powered Engine, it boasts 9 height adjustments. That’s considerable. You’ll be able to get your lawn the exact height you like and you wont’ have to worry about having the wrong mower for the wrong kind of grass. (Different grass types require different cutting heights to thrive. If you plan being professional about your yard work, plan on spending a little extra dough for a lawn mower that can cut right.)

Like any good lawn mower, the Yard-Man 12b-569Q755 Gas Powered Lawn Mower has three functions. It can spit the clippings out the side, place them in a bag, or mulch them. Mulching basically means the lawn mower will chew the clippings twice so they break down in your lawn faster and release nutrients. You shouldn’t use this feature all the time, but it’s definitely part of an excellent lawn mowing routine!

One thing the Yard-Man 12b-569Q755 Gas Powered Lawn Mower definitely has going for it is the large wheels. These are so often neglected. Small front wheels can make it hard to maneuver and push!!! I know, I’ve used lawn mowers with small wheels before and it isn’t fun, especially when your friend asks you to mow his backyard for the first time in half a decade because he’s having a party, STEVE. But hey, I’m not bitter.
Overall, the Yard-Man 12b-569Q755 Gas Powered Lawn Mower is an okay buy. There are definitely better gas powered lawn mowers out there for less money. Do some shopping, read my reviews, you’ll find something better, I promise. Try checking out a Lawn-Boy Gas Powered Lawn Mower. I like the Briggs and Stratton Engine Lawn Boy uses better than the Honda Engine. They start better in my opinion.

Yard-Man 12AE46JA001 Gas Powered Lawn Mower Review

Hello Readers,

It’s time for another gas powered lawn mower review. This time it’s the Yard-Man 12AE46JA001 Gas Powered Lawn Mower. One cool little factoid here, the Yard-Man 12AE46JA001 Gas Powered Lawn Mower is the official lawn mower of NASCAR? Why does NASCAR need an official lawn mower? I don’t know, only the profit margins could tell us I suppose. One other thing I want to mention is Amazon was reluctant to get in to the business of selling gas powered lawn mowers but there have been more models to choose from as of late and I applaud Amazon for it!

On to the Yard-Man 12AE46JA001 Gas Powered Lawn Mower Review. What I really like about this lawn mower is the exceptionally wide cutting width. The Yard-Man 12AE46JA001 Gas Powered Lawn Mower has a 21” wide blade that will allow you to cut your lawn mowing time by as much as 40% compared to other lawn mowers with shorter blades.

Oh, if you’re worried about the Yard-Man 12AE46JA001 Gas Powered Lawn Mower being far too unwieldly to be useful to you, don’t worry. The Yard-Man 12AE46JA001 Gas Powered Lawn Mower is a self propelled lawn mower. When you see self propelled on a lawn mower that means the lawn mower has a built in drive system that pushes the lawn mower forward so all you have to do is direct the angle. It makes for much less work and you feeling less tired at the end of your yard work day.

Oh! My favorite feature of the Yard-Man 12AE46JA001 Gas Powered Lawn Mower is the 9 different cutting heights. It can be annoying if you have a lawn mower with 2 or 3 height settings. But rest assured, you’ll be able to get the right height if you buy the Yard-Man 12AE46JA001 Gas Powered Lawn Mower because there are 9 different cutting heights to choose from!

Ultimately, the Yard-Man 12AE46JA001 Gas Powered Lawn Mower is an excellent lawn mower for a decent price. It has amazing reviews on Amazon.com and if you don’t believe me click the link just below this paragraph and read what other people have to say about this gas powered lawn mower.

Mantis 811103 Electric Reel Mower Review

Hello Readers,

Unique things are worth a look. That’s why I’ve decided to review the Mantis 811103 Electric Reel Mower. It’s unique because this is the first Electric Reel Mower I’ve seen. A reel mower as opposed to a regular lawn mower uses a reel of blades to cut crass as opposed to two arm blades. Once again, I like variety and the Mantis Reel Mower 811103 definitely adds to the range of lawn mower options out there.

As always, let’s start out with the good. The Mantis Reel Mower 811103 doesn’t pollute, or so the manufacturer claims. Honestly, everything pollutes, even that hippie food you buy at Whole Foods. I tried the buffet by the pound thing the other day, mediocre stuff man. Anyway, for you tree huggers, you won’t put anymore pollutants in to the air by burning gas, you’ll charge a battery and the power plant that supplies you will put the carbon in the air for you. Ahh, shifting the burden on to others, an American tradition.

Another cool thing is the padded handle. Right now my lawn mower handele isn’t padded. It could be, if I got some Styrofoam and tape, but I’m too lazy for that. Fortunately for those lucky few who buy the Mantis Reel Mower 811103 you won’t have to worry about being motivated enough to pad your lawn mower handle because it’s all built in! Woo hoo for laziness.
Oh, and like all good lawn mowers the Mantis Reel Mower 811103 can adjust it’s height so you can get your grass looking just the way you want it. Ya know, there are actually rules for how tall your grass should be cut, I’ll post them. Well, not so much rules as laws of nature and when you follow them your grass will look better. Oh, and don’t cut more than twice a week. Every ten days is good for decent St. Augustine by the way.

Overall, this is a decent lawn mower and great if you like the reel type lawn mower. You’re going to notice your grass looks different after mowing with a reel mower as opposed to a more traditional two blade system. If you don’t like change, go with another electric or gas powered lawn mower. However, if you’re just looking to cut a medium to small sized lawn and get it over with, there is no compelling reason to buy the Mantis Reel Mower 811103. In fact, look for a better deal.

Black and Decker LM175 Electric Lawn Mower

Hello Readers,

I thought I would keep my review of the Black and Decker LM175 Electric Mower because it’s late and it’s a very well made, inexpensive lawn mower. Quick and simple best describes this Electric Lawn Mower. Real quick, the Black and Decker LM175 Electric Lawn Mower has an 18” cutting path. That’s amazing considering I’ve seen cutting paths as small and pathetic as 14”. Really, that’s a lot more than I expected from an electric mower under $150. That’s even cheaper than most gas powered lawn mowers! Oh, it can also adjust cutting height and only weighs about 35 pounds.
In short, if you have a small lawn and very small budget the Black and Decker LM175 Electric Lawn Mower is definitely for you!

Worx ECO WG780 Electric Lawn Mower Review

Hello Readers,

Well, it looks like its time for another Worx Electric Lawn Mower Review. Today I bring you a review of the Worx ECO WG780 Electric Lawn Mower. Worx is one of those companies that does it’s best to be environmentally friendly and help it’s customers be as kind to the environment as well. To that end, Worx as developed one of the better Electric Lawn Mowers on the market today so you don’t have to use a carbon powered gas guzzling lawn mower.

Let’s start off with what I like about this lawn mower. First, the Worx ECO WG780 Lawn Mower cuts more than an acre’s worth of lawn with a single battery charge. That’s about 10% more than other electric lawn mowers in the same price range. How Worx does it? I don’t know. All I do know is that it works and works better than most other electric lawn mower batteries.

Like all good mowers, the Worx ECO WG780 Electric Lawn Mower has three functions, it can mulch, which basically means it chews the clippings up twice so they’re small, discharge clippings on the side, or collect clippings in a collection bag. The collection bag is kind of located strange place, but a few mowing sessions with this mower and you’ll get the hang of things.

One thing I really like is the ergonomically designed handle. Ergonomics is the study of what’s comfortable to the body. Basically, Worx has made the handle of the ECO WG780 Mower as human-friendly as possible so your hands don’t hurt afterwards. Sorry robots, you’ll have to look for another lawn mower.

One thing I definitely don’t like is the price. I would like to see the price dropped about $30 bucks to be a little more competitive with a couple other Black and Decker Electric Mowers, but hey, I guess the good stuff is always going to cost you more money. Overall, this is a well made lawn mower for people with small to medium sized lawns and you’ll get a lot of miles out of it.

Solaris SP21HB Electric Lawn Mower Review

Hello Readers,


Welcome to another exciting Lawn Mower Review here at the Lawn Tool Master blog. It’s time to bring you another excellent lawn mower review, today I have chosen the Solaris Electric Lawn Mower SP21HB. One bit of advice for the entire industry, name your lawn mowers better please. Something like Solaris E21 would be cool or Solaris Grass Eater 2000 would be even better. Just a thought, it would definitely make it easier for me to remember product names and make recommendations to people I happen to run in to at the hardware store looking for hardware. Okay, so it’s more like I’m trying to find them and preach…but hey, we are all passionate about something, even if that something is nothing. Anyway, on to the Solaris Sp21HB Electric Lawn Mower Review.



This Solaris Lawn Mower is a self propelled model. I generally shy away from self propelled lawn mowers because it just means there’s an extra thing to break down. I might change my mind when I’m in my 50’s and need things to be as easy as possible….but I probably won’t’ be doing all my own gardening by then either, I’ll probably hire a gardener to do my heavy lifting and do the fun stuff myself. From what I understand, the self propulsion system itself isn’t all that powerful anyway, but that’s to be expected from just about anything related to power on an electric lawn mower.



One thing I particularly like are the on and off board charging options. That means you don’t have to unplug the battery to charge it. I lose things a lot and this feature makes it much less likely my yard will look nappy because I can’t for the life of me remember where I put the battery. Another thing I like is the wide range of cutting height options. The height can be adjusted from 1.5 inches to 3.5 inches, which is much more than I can say for many residential grade lawn mowers in general. OH, there’s also a battery indicator. Battery charge indicators are seldom included in electric lawn mowers, a fact I wish were not so.



Overall, this is not a good electric mower. Like many electric lawn mowers I award low scores to, there are simply more powerful models out there for less money. If you’re looking for a good electric lawn mower with decent power at a good price check out more of my reviews or just visit Amazon.com. There are plenty of lawn mowers to choose from!

Lawn Boy Insight Gold Series Lawn Mower 10697 Review

I know it's been awhile but I'm back with another lawn mower review. I would have put some more lawn mower reviews up last week but it's kind of hard to type with a 100° temperature. Anyway back to work. Today I bring you a review of the Lawn Boy Insight Gold Series Gas Powered Lawn Mower 10697.

I know most of the people on this website just want to find a lawn mower that's going to cut their line without too much hassle. If that's the kind of lawn mower you're looking for a suggest one of the cheaper lawn boy lawn mowers. But if you're like me, you're fascinated with lawn tools that are powerful! This Lawn Boy lawn mower is one of the most powerful lawn mowers offered by Lawn Boy. It uses the powerful Honda OHV engine.

Lawn Boy has equipped the Gold Series Gas Powered Lawn Mower with their exclusive sens-a speed system. Sens-a-speed system propels the lawn mower across the grass so you don't have to put so much effort in to mowing your lawn. The system also senses how fast you're attempting to walk and adjusts the speed of the lawn mower accordingly.

Another cool feature is the quick stow lever. It lets you fold up the lawn mower once you’re done mowing your lawn and store it in a much smaller space. This is an attribute deal of people with large garages or plenty of room to store heavy equipment, but for people like me it's always good to know you can store things more efficiently if you need more space.

The Lawn Boy Gold series lawn mower is equipped with an idling feature that lets you stop the blade without having to stop the engine. It's not that big of a deal but some people like being able to walk away from them are in not having to restart it. This feature comes more and and the later on during the lifetime of lawn mower. After several years of use it may become harder to start the lawn mower and letting it idle will prevent you from having to restart the lawn mower.

There are plenty of people out there with small lawns and smaller people who cut lawns. If you’re one of those people I’m talking directly to you. The Black and Decker Lawn Hog M875 Lawn Mower is a lightweight electric lawnmower designed to cut small to medium sized lawns. Is the Black and Decker Lawn Hog a cut above the rest? Read the rest of this review to find out.

The Black and Decker Lawn Hog MM875 has a 19” cutting blade that should get be able to cut through most medium sized lawns in about 15 - 20 minutes. Medium size means about 250 square feet. One of the reasons the Lawn Hog MM875 can cut through things so fast is the incredibly light weight design. I can’t imagine going so fast with a gas powered push lawn mower!

Another reason why the Black and Decker Lawn Hog MM875 is so great is because it requires almost no assembly out of the box. Just about the only thing you’ll have to do is unravel an extension cord and attach the grass catcher, if you plan on using it. It’s nice to know this lawn mower can be out of the box and cutting in 5 minutes once it has been delivered or picked up from Home Depot.

If you happen to be one of those gardeners that have a precise idea of lawn and garden perfection, you’ll be happy to know the blade height can be adjusted from 1.25” to 3.5”. Blade height is crucial to the look and feel of your lawn. I personally prefer a thicker lawn and let my blade rest around 2.5”. I can’t tell you how thick or thin to cut your lawn, it depends on the type of grass and your personal preferences. But I can tell you I love it when a lawn mower manufacturer like Black and Decker provides their customers with the power to choose!

That’s about all I have to say. Just remember, the Black and Decker Lawn Hog Mower MM875 is a light to medium grade lawn mower. Buy for small to medium sized lawns and I’m certain you’ll enjoy using this lawn mower!

I like my burgers all different ways. I like them with pineapple and teriyaki sauce, with secret sauce, lettuce, tomato, and extra pickle, or on toasted garlic bread with a hearty meat sauce. But sometimes I like it simple. Just a hunk of meat and cheese between a fresh toasted hamburger bun. If you like to keep things simple, I can’t think of a simpler gas powered lawn mower than the Poulan Pro 3 in 1 lawn mower.

One of the other things I hate doing when I buy a new lawn mower is assembling it. It can sometimes take a couple hours. I may have a green thumb, but I’m definitely not a grease monkey. I usually have my new lawn mowers assembled at family owned lawn mower shop called Oshiros. Fortunately for the mechanically inept, the Poulan Pro Lawn Mower comes fully assembled when it ships! Just gas and go! The only thing that might have to be assembled is the handle, but that’s only a couple screws away from completion.

If you’re like me, you like to start the lawn mower and cut. The Poulan Pro does not have any annoying gears to mess with or figure out, there is no drive system causing unnecessary problems. When you’re using the Poulan Pro Push Lawn Mower, it’s just you, your lawn mower, and the grass. Ahhh, I’m getting euphoric just thinking about the fresh cut grass.

Poulan has decided to use the powerful Briggs and Stratton 600 Series Engine to power their Poulan Pro Lawn Mower. It’s no secret, I like powerful tools. Gardening is just not fun if you have to stop every two inches to give a chainsaw blade a rest or your weed wacker can’t power through those thick weeds you’ve been meaning to cut for six months. The Briggs and Stratton 600 Series Engine delivers 190 cc’s of torque and should be powerful enough to cut even the thickest of lawns with ease.

Finally, Poulan has priced the Poulan Pro Lawn Mower very low. I think Poulan could get away with charging about $50 bucks more, just don’t tell them I said so. I would hate to think they raised the price because of a garden blogger like myself! Well that’s all I have to say on the subject. I hope you find a lawn mower that keeps your yard looking neat!

Scotts Reel Push Mower Review

Scotts Reel Mower Rating: 5 stars out of 5 for being a perfect push mower

Click To Buy The Scotts Push Reel Mower

I’m not a fan of push mowers, my father is. He bought a push mower about five years ago to mow a half acre backyard lawn for “exercise”. I have no doubt driving a push mower is exercise, but it just seems like a conventional lawn mower can provide just as much exercise. I should probably stop trying to understand my burned out hippie dad. His ways are as mysterious to me as youtube is to him.

The Scotts Reel Push Mower is probably the best push mower out there. The blades are sharp out of the box and should cut through grass without any problems. Push mowers with lots of drag tend to slow down quickly and you’ll have to pull back the mower and cut the same area again. So long as you keep the blades lubricated properly, this shouldn’t be too much of a problem. Well, it’s always a problem with a push mower, but the Scotts Reel Push Mower keeps it down to an absolute minimum.

One of the things I really like about this push mower is height selection. I don’t know what it is about a lot of push mower manufacturers, but they seem to think that people using a push mower don’t have a lawn height preference. This is not the case as my hippie dad likes to use his Scotts Reel Mower on the highest setting.

I really don’t know what else to say about the Scotts Push Mower, there just isn’t that much to talk about. You know a product is as simple as possible when amazon.com uses “Includes mower, handle, composite wheels” in their product description. Honestly, when handles and wheels not included with a lawn mower? I guess that does it for my Scotts Reel Push Lawn Mower Review.
