Webb Classic WER410SP Self Propelled 4 Wheel Petrol Rotary Lawnmower, 7 Cutting Heights, 41cm Cutting Width and 45L Collection Bag - 2 Year Guarantee

I bought this as I needed a self propelled mower for my garden which is on a steep upwards incline. Came in a box and was relatively easy to put together. The brake handle has no instructions on fitting which took me a little while to work out. The rest was super simple. It is great and works really well. I have to avoid using the self propelled bit going downhill as it was too fast and I slipped several times on the damp cut grass. Ha ha, yes I was on my bum on the floor. That said it is superb at going uphill and has made cutting my grass a much easier job. Only negative so far (had it a couple of weeks) is it is damn heavy and is too heavy for me to carry up and down the steps up to my grass. Think it is because it is self propelled so a bit heavier than a push mower. Luckily my neighbours son carries up and down for me.

Positves Excellent build quality, sturdy & solid. Gives good even cut even on long grass. Good value for money Instructions say needs two people to assemble, I'm in my 70's and had no trouble assembling it on my own Used it several times now & always started first time, just one pull on cord & away you go.. Negatives : My lawn has very steep slopes which this mower doesn't cope with well at all, front wheels kick up & it doesn't cut evenly on sloping lawn. The self propelled speed is factory set & it is quite fast. This is fine for level lawns, for sloping lawns it can run away with you, be far better if user could adjust speed to suit the terrain Grass box is far too small, on larger lawns you are forever stopping to empty it. Cutting width is 16", OK for smaller lawns, not really wide enough of medium to large lawns. Overall this mower is best suited to smaller lawn areas which are flat. I decided to buy this model as it was self propelled, thinking it would be much easier to use than a push type. It isn't, the slopes on my lawn and the fast speed it is set at make it all but useless on the sloping areas. If you have a small lawn it will be fine, but I'd look elsewhere if you have a medium or large lawn.

I've literally just mowed a field with this mower. The grass was 10 inches high and yet this amazing little mower chomped its way through the whole field. I had been worried that the self-propelled rear wheels would not be up to the job but goodness me, it was off like a lightweight 4x4. The weight is something you need to consider with petrol mowers but this one is light enough to lift up and manoeuvre about as you cut. I didn't use the grass bag (as I was in a field) but will be easy to use when I use it in the garden for what it was designed for. I'm sure you'll find it perfect for your needs. The four stroke takes all petrol types so ignore older reviews about E10 petrol. I'm delighted after it's first use, just need to register it for its 2 year guarantee. Really recommend it and I don't say that often.

I was expecting a quality product and from a British company. Sadly I was disappointed. When the item was unpacked it had 2 broken rear wheels and wheel sprockets and was clearly not fit for purpose or of merchantable quality. The seller refunded the purchase price but has refused to accept his clear responsibility to refund the £25 cost of returning the lawnmower. In summary the product is poorly made and packaged and the supplier/agent refuses to take responsibility for the return costs arising to customers of his products. Direct contact with Webbs is impossible. All contact has to be conducted through a disinterested agent. In conclusion, don't buy from this company. Its products and customer support are appalling.

I am really impressed with the Webb lawnmower. It arrived quickly and came with the oil ready to fill up, which is a bonus. It was very easy to assemble and set up ready to go within a very short time. Having read the instructions regard starting I primed the system with 3 pumps and it struck up on the first pull with very little effort, almost taking me by surprise (contra to my existing lawnmower that needs multiple pulls & fettling to start and keep going). Once struck up it worked well and was just as easy to restart after emptying the grass collector. The collector is also good with it being made of mesh and easy to see when it's full without having to regularly check the contents. The lawnmower is fairly light and easy to use. Having read other reviews, I understand the critism over filling the oil, but this can be overcome by using a small funnel. Overall a great lawnmower for the money.
