Craftsman 5.5 Torque Rating 21 in. 2 in 1 Deck Rear Bag Push ...
While this mower is not meant for huge jobs (like most push mowers) it still will be able to accomplish most things you throw at it. I would recommend this lawn mower to anyone who is looking to get a normal mowing job done and looking for a... You might have a little trouble with the height settings staying in place for the wheels as the mower is not greatly constructed, but this mower is a cheap mower that has a good value for the price. It is a great buy for the size and the price This is my first lawn mower and I've already learned that, as far as lawn mowers go, you get what you pay for. In the case of any push mower it helps to have a little bit of strength when pushing, but most people should be fine as the mower rolls pretty nicely. Also this mower is not a heavy which is a plus if you have steep areas on your lawn like I do. My old mower was a pain to empty, I would have bang the side many times to get the cutting out. When using this mower it is probably best to have a full gas tank when priming the mower. Sometimes when you back the mower up this flap will flip under the mower and stay stuck there.

I replaced my old craftsman mower which I had for the last five years. I purchase this craftsman mower model number 38819 in late April. This mower stays true to the saying you get what you pay for, but in this case you actually get a pretty good value for what you pay for and maybe even could say you get a little more than what you pay for. 5 ft-lbs of gross torque. For my street area where its a little more sandy I remove the bag and use the mulching feature and this mower does a good job. My old mower used a tank of gas for my half my yard (I have a small yard). This mower bag is design so the cuttings dropout easily. Even though this mower is not meant for huge mowing jobs it usually can take on most projects. Another quirk of this mower is that sometimes it just decides not to bag the grass at all. The Dome deck allows me to do close trimming from both sides of the mower. Being a female, it was important to own a mower that was easy to use, However this is most likely do the morning moisture and not the mower design. It may have something to do with the rubber flap that drags behind the mower deck (presumably to stop sticks and rocks from shooting out the back)....
