A new mower! And not just any crappy store brand mower (like last time... And that ended in a bent flywheel!), a...
Mountfield!
And not just any Mountfield, the SP414 model, yep, that's SP as in Self Propelled! :biggrin:
As with most lower end Mountfield mowers it has a Mountfield engine, an RS100 model, and here are the specifications:
100CC
2.0KW (2.6HP)
3,600RPM MAX
OK, it isn't a very powerful engine, but my lawn is hardly a jungle, it just gets an inch or two trimmed off it every 5-6 days, so she'll manage just fine.
I would post pictures... But it is still in the box! The grass doesn't need mowed, as I just did it this morning (prior to buying) with the electric mower, but on Monday or Tuesday it'll need done, so I'll haul her out of the box, mantel her, and get the camera out!
I'm really chuffed with my purchase!
They had one assembled in the store, and it looked the business. Big, sturdy, and with a Mountfield badge on it, so you can't really go wrong there.
Ah... I'm back with petrol (gas) mowers again :smile:
