I've mowed with it once, had no issues. I like the even cut it left my lawn and the grass clippings are tiny! I'm just wondering if I got a good deal at $350? The front of the deck has a gash and so does the front right wheel, but I believe those are just cosmetic flaws that won't lead to any problems down the road. I also noticed that the bottom of the deck and blades look like they have rusted, but I don't believe it's rust. Can anyone explain what's going on down there? Should I be worried?
I had my second mow this weekend and I'm noticing that this mower is leaving me some single, uncut blades of grass randomly sticking up on my lawn. It did that with the first mow, but I thought maybe it was because I was mowing too fast. Tried mowing at a slower speed this time around, but same thing. Should I be concerned or is this normal with these residential value HRR series mowers?
Grass has been pretty tall for both cuts, so that could have been it. I believe it's St. Augustinegrass because the leaves are large, course and broad.
