Disappointed – Bought off a bloke who had not taken it out of the box in April 2019. Couldn't work out why the fuel tank would empty between mows when a small amount of fuel was left in tank. However the mower worked well and I was not too worried until I filled the tank recently and fuel just poured out the bottom of the tank. It would seem from similar… Read more
compaints that it is a fault with the tank and has not been resolved. Will try having it plastic welded or if not successful fit a different tank.
This is the worst lawn mower ever – Bought brand new from Bunnings with in 3months the fuel tank started dripping by 6months the fuel tank was pouring out fuel. Within 1month electric start stopped working. 6months pull cord snapped. Have been in contact with both Bunnings and Yard king this whole time being told it's not their issue. Show details
Don't buy! – From personal experience please don't buy this mower.If you can find parts they are extremely expensive! Show details
crap – bought it new from bunnings and from the very first time it was very hard to start and now it has stopped working all together. garbage mower. I checked the tank, the hose to the carburetor, the carburetor itself and cannot find the problem. just over 2 years old piece of garbage. Show details
Great mower – I've had mine for nearly 4 years and it's been serviced once in that time. I work it hard and it never lets me down. The only problem I've had is the electric starter no longer works and mower repair shops around me don't seem to work on those sorts of things. I'm not worried though as the pull start is easy and reliable. It gets a good amount of work done on a full tank and the self propelled function makes the job easier. Show details
Good tough mower – So far mine has been great! No issues. Have had it for only 4 months now so fingers crossed. It cuts through effortlessly and the auto drive makes mowing a breeze. The push button start works like a charm and saves the old shoulder from further injury. Show details
Push button stater not working battery checked OK – Works good but won't start with push button battery OK otherwise can't fault it except grass gets stuck before going in to catcher must clear all the time especially when grass is long. Show details
Very powerful mower. Self propelled – Edit 18 march. Mower developed a big petrol leak from bottom of tank. Mower returned due to safety issue with leaking tank. I thought it was merely using more fuel. Was empty each time I went to use it. The paint was damaged from the leak. Fed up with buying sub standard items. Well I have the best mower Ive ever used. Its a huge 20 inch cut. Big… Read more
173cc four stroke engine. The self propelled and push button start are fantastic. Starts very easy and also has the pull start if needed. Comes with battery charger for the starter. Mows with ease. Catcher is great and also comes with mulcher attachment. Very sturdy. Easy assembly. I hope to have for a long time.
Attention. Looks like these mowers are a safety hazard. Develop a fuel leak from under tank. I've… Read more

Used an electric soldering iron and repaired the leak by melting poly into the failed join in the tank. So far it is working well no leaks.
