Craftsman Torque 3-in-1 Mower Reviews

I purchased the Craftsman Torque 3-in-1 Mower for my dad at the beginning of the summer. This mower is definitly worth the money for those long summers when the grass seems to need cut once every 3 days. My dad claims that it's thee most durable lawn mower on the market, my mom proved that to be correct! It's very light-weight and easy to manage for those steep hills and dips throughout your yard. This isn't your ordinary mower, it has 21in. cutting width and a max. cutting height of 3in. In other words, that means you won't have to cut your yard every time you turn around like your neighbor!

This is the fourth mower I've had over the last 20 odd years and the two that were Craftsman have easily been the most reliable.   I am not the type to maintain things well...in fact, I pretty much mow one last time in November and then fire it up again in the spring (usually w/ the same gas sitting in the tank).    Usually starts on first pull.  Easy to manuever and if I had anything that I'd probably change is that you need three arms to properly dislodge the clippings bag (reaching through the handles while holding it underneath..then switching hands to unload).   A minor drawback.

The mower reliably starts and runs very well as I have had it for 2 years now, but, the grass bag is a frustrating mess.

Craftsman Torque 3-in-1 Mower

This mower is lightweight and real easy to push  easily cuts grass cost effective.  My own mother could use.  You can even cut the grass when wet, now that is a good thing.  I really like how easy it is to mow the grass with.  I've had mine now for theis season and it still runs great.

This seems to be a good mower, especially for the price. Easy start and grass catcher stays in place without gaps for dust and clippings to escape.

Only problem was one rear wheel bracket was bent causing the mower to pull to the left. Easy enough to fix after removing wheel and hammering bracket flat but it should have been caught before packing.
