I agree that is a really pretty one. really cool. I also feel this type is the best of all to actually mow grass with. More power than the D-engines but still a very light weight mower.

I get the BEST results in side-discharge on my Lawnboy mowers by using the most current Lawnboy (brand) or clone blade that mounts without a stiffener, and I don't use the mulch fan. I can mow thru anything and only on the tallest grass do I get any clumping. I mow everything at 3rd position from lowest setting, with lowest setting being 1st position. Also, I sharpen the blade several times a season.
