I'm looking to buy a self-propelled mulcher mower that can be set to cut
the grass much higher than regular mowers, like maybe 4-5" tall?

Who makes something decent in that?

I have a Toro and it mows at 4", although I usually keep it at 3.5"
for tall fescue.

Good for you. I've got the beginner's John Deere, always set to the highest
setting (4"). All around me are lawns cut to resemble AstroTurf carpet, cut
too short, and all with that dried hay look. My own lawn is taller and lush,
and gets cut just as often as those others.

I don't know what changing height does to the mulching action, but if you
can't find one easily I'd think any handy mechanic should be able to
relocate the wheels or change to larger ones without too much problem.
