Default Lawnmower with mulching attachment

Re the comment that mulching mowers leave balls of wet or long grass; has
anyone any experience of mowers that don't attempt to chop up the cuttings
very fine but simply blow it out sideways through a chute? Presumably these
don't cause balling?

Also any experience of the Haytorette which is designed to cope with long
grass without bagging it or of the Viking (Steilh) 3-wheel mulching mower?

I'm in the process of buying a new lawnmower, and I've seen brochures
for ones with a mulching attachment, which is supposed to work by
shredding the cuttings up small and spreading them back onto the lawn.
This is supposed to feed the lawn as well as disposing of the cuttings.
Has anyone used one of these, and can you tell me if they're any good?
