[QUOTE="mr ed, post: 3780585, member: 6777"] If you buy an off brand, look the motor over good. I bought one from Atwoods many years ago. While it worked pretty good, I learned the motor was built funny and had a hole in the side of it or something. My yard has a very sharp hill and if I pushed horizontally with the mower at a 45 angle one direction was fine. when I turned and went back the other way, the hole allowed the crankcase oil to go into the cylinder and you had a smoke screen machine. Also the plastic big wheels were crap and expensive. I found that golf cart wheels were the same, so I would frequent the thrift stores and pickup an inexpensive golf cart 5-10 bucks and put the wheels from it on the mower when they cracked. [/QUOTE]
