If you want a made in USA and built to last mower, this is the one to get.The deck is heavy gauge steel, the wheels are steel (not plastic).The Kawasaki engine is designed and constructed like a motorcycle engine--easy to service and top quality materials.The self-propelled system drives the rear wheels and it works very well.The only caution is this mower is hefty because of the heavy gauge steel used in the deck and handle. It may not be the best choice for users who want something light-weight.</span> June 14, 2012<meta itemprop="datePublished" content="2012-06-14" /></div><div id='6952710' itemprop="review" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Review"><meta itemprop="itemReviewed" content="Lawn Mower, 21 In.Wide, 6HP, Variable Speed" /><span itemprop="reviewRating" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Rating">Rated <span itemprop="ratingValue">1</span> out of <span itemprop="bestRating">5</span></span><span itemprop="name"> 3 is not enough</span><span itemprop="description"> 3 in one not work. If grass is about 3&quot; none of the three functions work correctly. Have to stop every 20' or so to clear bottom. One blade doesn't fit all. Starter cord pulls out of retainer. Speed control not manageable. Taking plate out for side discharge extremely tricky- screw with square notch when slightly unscrewed spins and you have to force tight to unscrew &amp; remove.</span> June 13, 2012<meta itemprop="datePublished" content="2012-06-13" /></div><div id='6602057' itemprop="review" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Review"><meta itemprop="itemReviewed" content="Lawn Mower, 21 In.Wide, 6HP, Variable Speed" /><span itemprop="reviewRating" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Rating">Rated <span itemprop="ratingValue">2</span> out of <span itemprop="bestRating">5</span></span> by <span itemprop="author">Bill</span><span itemprop="name"> OK mower for price</span><span itemprop="description"> The mower had issues from day one,support staff was very accommodating in sending new rear tires when the rubber came off the wheel.When I took it to the local dealer to get to the heart of the problem it was discovered that the drive gears were installed backwards,thus causing the wheel to lock up a few jobs into the day.It has not had issues since.I have used Ariens mowers in all their incarnations for the last 18 years and this seems to be a solid tool,but is not much fun to use.I bought a commercial Honda from the dealer who helped me figure out the Ariens problem .My regret is that I didn't go ahead and spend a couple hundred more in the first place and go with a Honda.The extra cost gives you vastly superior quality,and more importantly,enjoyable mowing.</span> June 12, 2012<meta itemprop="datePublished" content="2012-06-12" /></div><div id='6602055' itemprop="review" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Review"><meta itemprop="itemReviewed" content="Lawn Mower, 21 In.Wide, 6HP, Variable Speed" /><span itemprop="reviewRating" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Rating">Rated <span itemprop="ratingValue">3</span> out of <span itemprop="bestRating">5</span></span> by <span itemprop="author">phil</span><span itemprop="name"> Dependable, good value mower, but weak on throttle control design.</span><span itemprop="description"> I found this mower to be good value and reliable in starting and mowing.

Sometimes I'd be able to see the brass pins, but gave up &amp; bought several.The handles are atrocious! Doesn't take long before my hands ache maintaining 2 strips of metal together over the main bar. Some cushioning is required - or a fatter piece of hollow metal to minimize hand problems..Definitely pleased with it's performance! Starts immediately. It's powerful!

I had the engine replaced due to a recall (Sachs). The replacement is a Tecumseh 2 cycle. Great mower, excellent vacuuming of lawn, and the self propel far excees my other mower (Honda). But after 24 years I think I need to replace it. I hope the Pro 21 is as good as the one I have.</span> March 14, 2011<meta itemprop="datePublished" content="2011-03-14" /></div><div id='2506852' itemprop="review" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Review"><meta itemprop="itemReviewed" content="Lawn Mower, 21 In.Wide, 6HP, Variable Speed" /><span itemprop="reviewRating" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Rating">Rated <span itemprop="ratingValue">3</span> out of <span itemprop="bestRating">5</span></span><span itemprop="name"> Review</span><span itemprop="description"> Heavy duty mower. Cuts grass well, but falls short in certain areas. Drive bail is awkward to use and control, also uncomfortable to use for the whole lawn. Mower deck clogs with grass easily and must be cleaned often. The rubber safety flap at the back of the mower tore after just 3 months of use. The height of the handle is not adjustable, I wish it was. I love the posi-traction rear drive. This works very well on my hills and flat ground. Overall a very good solid mower, the handle drive bail and the grass clogging are the biggest negatives of this mower</span> November 13, 2010<meta itemprop="datePublished" content="2010-11-13" /></div><div id='2506854' itemprop="review" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Review"><meta itemprop="itemReviewed" content="Lawn Mower, 21 In.Wide, 6HP, Variable Speed" /><span itemprop="reviewRating" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Rating">Rated <span itemprop="ratingValue">5</span> out of <span itemprop="bestRating">5</span></span><span itemprop="name"> walk behind mowers</span><span itemprop="description"> I was given an Ariens for my birthday 11 years ago and it still performs beautifully.
