I wasn't to happy with the leanth of time it took to receive this lawn mower. I was contacted and told they were having difficulty getting this model and then had to wait over a month before receiving this product. I was told that it could not be sold in Califirnia and when I received it it was not in the box that model was suppose to be. I have this lawn mower which I purchased else where so I was sure that it was a good model and I like it very much. Bob Verbridge
