You have a much smaller lawn or are much younger than I

(My Johnson Grass would destroy that puppy quicker than Ethanol through a Briggs and Stratton)
Our home is a tiny lot in subdivision Purgatory. The retirement property is ~60 acres; I have a diesel tractor for that place.
Plus I have teenage kids that want to earn money. It works okay on the St Augustine grass, as long as you don’t wait a couple weeks between cuttings. Then it just bogs down too hard to push.
The two problems I found was the “catcher” that came with it only caught half and was such a pain to detach, empty and re-attach. I was concerned about tracking cuttings in the house, but after tossing it, we don’t seem to have an issue. Healthier for the lawn anyways.
The other problem is sticks. Tiny little ones stop it dead locking up the wheels. I’ve learned whiping my shoe across the blades to give a quick backward spin frees it easily. But it works best when walking fast and the sudden jolt to a stop is a pain.
