Fast shipping, well packaged. I've put one tank of gas through the mower so far. Starts easy, runs well, easy to operate. I had some very long grass in pastures to cut. My only complaint so far is with very long grass it tends to lay a lot of it down and not cut as short as I would like. I have some rocks throughout the pasture so I set it fairly high but was left with a lot of grass still quite tall. As maintain the grass shorter I think it will cut to a more consistent length.
