BBT Slasher 24" Briggs & Stratton 750 Series Petrol Self Propelled Lawn Mower - 2yrw

So far so good, easy to use, drives itself beautifully,excellent cutting edge.

After doing a lot of research on what type of mower we'd need (2 acre block - undulating hills/rough terrain with rocks everywhere), I decided to run with this slasher, and I am very glad I did.... It is simply a beast... Rocks? No issues - blade takes a hit and keeps going... Long/wet grass? No issues, just need to take it slow and let it breathe a little. Many have said it can't mow in the wet - I don't think anyone should be mowing in the wet in the first place, but if you're grass is damp, this thing will still do its job - you just need to go a little slower... Was contemplating an electric mower etc, but there is no way they would have the power or the robustness this thing has - it is built like a tank and I am sure if it is maintained right, it will last many years... If I had to pick on anything, it would be for it to have a largue fuel tank (would have been nice if it was 2ltrs instead of 1ltr), but no big deal, just plan ahead... Highly recommend this machine - thank you BBT!!

Great service and crew organised delivery to my country location.
Next step is to get the mower in action…..stayed tuned

For what it is and does it's better value than any other new units I could find. Motor starts reliably but can sometimes kickback. I've found it best to hold the pull starter handle a bit loosely so it pulls out of your hand and doesn't try to break your wrist. I basically bought mine to slash around about 400 seedling trees, I've planted on some sloping ground, where my zero turn mower won't go or fit. It manages most of it and is definitely a good workout but the drive system is a bit so so. When you engage the drive, small metal friction wheels push onto the rear wheel tyres, this is not very effective if the wheels are wet so I find myself mowing at the end of a dry day if I expect to go up even a mild slope. I've tried different tyre pressures and presently have the friction wheels adjusted just touching the drive wheels. Would have preferred a chain/gear drive and clutch. Brakes would have also been nice it's hard to hang onto when you point it down hill, I always work up from the bottom of slopes then back down touching the drive as a brake. I have hinged the shoot so it kicks up if I need to mow closer to something. Mine is stored undercover but the rims of the rear wheels already have surface corrosion. The deck and most bits seem well constructed out of steel. The fuel tank is too small I have to refill it multiple times in a session.

On a couple of occasions I've mowed bits of lawn close to the house and it does a nice job, but I wouldn't buy one primarily for that because it's heavier to manoeuvre than a domestic lawnmower and the wheels sticking out the front limit how close you can get to some things. The slasher blade is showing very little signs of wear, even with my theory that 'if you mow rocks enough they will turn into lawn.'

disappointed it took a few months to get here but it arrived yesterday and tried it out. worked a treat on the long grass. will purchase again.
