Howse 5 ft. mower, January 2, 2008

By	Billy Bob "whoa-is-me" (Im Here) - See all my reviews

This mower cuts well and does not scalp the ground excessively. It seems to work well as long as there are no rocks or debri that the blades will strike. The blades are heavy and well built with a dish mount and has a tapered splined hub to the gearbox. This hub has a tendency to become loose and the mower needs to be overturned to check it.

The weakest part of the mower is the sheet-metal. The welds at the rear corners are weak and appear to be faulty weld joints as the joints separate without the metal breaking.

Overall, it is a fair mower for medium use, but is not suited for heavy, long-term mowing. It will not withstand rocks, etc. as the side metal plates are too thin and the welds are not strong enough for commercial use.
