I had a self-propelled Crapsman walk-behind that lasted 2 1/2 seasons
before the transmission failed. Cost new: $350. Cost for PARTS (not
labor) to fix: $299. I junked it and bought a Honda Harmony, for
$650. Money VERY
well spent. I also now have a John Deere lawn tractor since we moved
to a bigger property.

So, if you like replacing your mower every 2-4 years, by all means by
the Sears. If you want something that will last, spend a little more
and get a Honda, John Deere, or Toro. It will last you a dozen years
or more.

I disagree entirely with what Tim has to say here. I have owned three
(3) Craftsman lawnmowers in the past forty years. When properly
maintained,each of these mowers lasted over ten years. I find that
John Deere is severly overpriced with extra bells and wistles that
most home owners don't need.

No shit..by the way..mtd makes cub cadet,and many others.
