I love it!

I wanted to thank you for all of the videos you put out. I bought my house over two years ago and have been using a rickety hand me down mower to get the job done. The front lawn was completely dead with most of the area being bare ground spots. Watching your videos has helped me get the entire area green again. My entire property area is around 17000sqft and this video highlighted the problem I was having. Having to push around that old mower over the entire area is exhausting and takes forever. Watching your last review between the Honda HRX and new Toro 2020 Super Recycler finally convinced me to stop doing it the hard way. Having the larger size lawn, I was also looking at the riding lawnmowers, but I have way too many trees and obstacles on the property and a ton of dense grass that was bogging down my current mower and stalling it out. Thanks to you, I decided to pull the trigger on the Toro Super Recycler 21387 with the 190cc engine and Smartstow capabilities. It arrived yesterday and I cant wait to break it out for the time. It is an investment that I probably should have picked up way earlier than this, but I think using the old mower will make me appreciate the upgrade that much more. Once again, thanks for all the courses on Youtube University, they have been invaluable to me. Keep up the awesome content.

Great video, refreshing to see someone passionate about something I find a chore. I’ll follow your wise advice and am sure will have much less headaches ahead 👍, also despite your clear experience, you’ve explained at a level majority can understand which is greatly appreciated.

This guy just goes to show how when you add love to any subject, it’s enjoyable and fulfilling. Did not expect to love this video!!💚

I used to enjoy walking the lawn but it would take 5-6 hours. So I invested in a 42 inch tractor and used it for 13 years until it was hard to get parts to repair. Since I was older and had gain a little weight I bought another self propelled mower. I quickly realized how bad my knees had gotten but tough it out anyway for two years. Now I have a 52 inch zero turn and definitely enjoying the mow again here in north Florida.

You just helped me understand so much about purchasing a lawnmower. I still don’t know how to mow the lawn but I know how to buy a mower and that’s the job that’s most important to me right now. Thank you.

I would like to see Honda to come out with a 30” mower.

[thebrightshift]

You literally covered almost everything that one takes into consideration when actually doing lawns as a profession! Haha! Great vidio

[quisp]

I just bought a house and have been turning to your videos for lawn care advice. Thank you so much for putting these up! Also, I love the background music you use in your videos.

[TheSodFather]

Love the green screen with you talking and the video in the background, gives that old school crown point feel with a newer style . Great video brother !

[MichaelRei]

Great video Allyn! If I was in need of a lawn mower I’d have plenty of info to make my decision. I’ve owned my Honda HRX217 top of the line mower for over 15 years. I didn’t take good care of it when I first had it but the last several years I baby it. I even upgraded the folding handle clips. It’s running as great as the day I bought it and I foresee having it for quite a bit longer. So even though I paid over $800 for it I consider it money well spent! Thanks for all of the great content you keep churning out!!

Hey Allyn- I just bought a greenworks 25inch duel blade self propelled electric mower that takes 2 60v batteries. An industry 1st. I really love it and it makes me look forward to my mow every week 😁👍

[CaseyReed]

Just here to say that I found you 4 years ago when I moved from the city into a suburban home with a WRECKED lawn. I didn't even know about mowing let alone weed control, etc. My wife and I followed all of your instructions and now, not a day goes by someone doesn't say "Wow! You have the best lawn in the neighborhood. How do you do it?!" My response is, "You Tube. The Lawn Care Nut." Then I write your channel on a post-it note for them :) So, THANK YOU...even though for the rest of my life I'll never be able to just enjoy a brisk walk without looking at everyone else's weeds. :)

Thanks for the 75 minute number. North Texas 1 acre was using JD LA105 42" and it was taking 2 hours which was a bummer. Tonight I mowed with the JD X570 54" (deck extends beyond the wheels) in 50 minutes. Just push the pedal all the way down and only let off for the turns. Yes, it's a beast of a mower. No clumping.

[tomr]

The best mower I have is a 2005 John Deere JS63C. It's a what you would call a zero turn walk behind. Very easy to move around obstacles and your also able to lock the front casters to mow straight. Why others never really followed this concept I'll never know. Cub Cadet has something similar but it's not built as well, just goes to show 15 years and still going strong.

[chefkevincrittendon]

Dude, You do an impressive job of informing us, Thanks!

[Rick_Schott]

About 19, 500 sq ft of lawn here (finally measured it today after being here a year... my bad). Love my Timemaster for this but you’re spot-on, most would be happier with a ZTR for a patch this size. In our neighborhood there are equal parts lawn tractors, ZTRs, lawn service customers, and then there’s me.

[CardsharkMr]

Allen, I just want to say a big Thank You for all the info that You share with Us across the country. I have followed You for 5-6 years and Your videos are so nice and insanely helpful.
You really do now You stuff and for You to take the time to share and help other across the country is just wonderful. I hope that I get a chance to meet You one day and say thank You in person but until then THANK YOU.

[ericweatherall]

I’ve watched 2:05 min of your video... and you might be the best YouTubed on the planet. You get directly to the point and there’s no bull shit. I love it.

I moved to a house that has around 70, 000 sq ft of front lawn. We ended up getting the Cub 50'' deck tractor. Scratched the zero turn because of the need to use a trailer and other things. It easily climbs more than factory recommendations which is needed here. It still takes me a while to cut the grass/weeds. I saw your Simplicity rider and would prefer that but not for the cost. At the old house I used a 1974 McLane front throw. Loved that mower. Good luck to those looking at new mowers. We're fortunate to have LCN to help us. Thank you nerdy guy
