Craftsman 37068 Review
The Craftsman 37068 includes welcome features, like a 22-inch deck, Platinum Series Briggs & Stratton engine, and a design that mulches, bags, or discharges grass clippings. Big wheels make for easy turns and the only obvious complaint is a small 1.6 quart-gas tank.
Craftsman Self-Propelled Rear Bag Mower 37068 reviews say mowing is easy with this model, in part because of the self-propelled engineering. Users report in Craftsman 37068 reviews posted on the Sears site that it pulls them along quickly, handily cuts the grass that crosses its path, and effortlessly swerves around trees and flower plantings. The large wheels are good for hilly terrain, according to Craftsman 37068 reviews, and can be easily adjusted for cutting height. Users also note that assembly is accomplished in minutes, as is feeding the mower with gas and oil. The one minor gripe we found concerns the perceived limitations of the 1.6-quart gas tank; one Craftsman 37068 review says the tank ran dry part-way through mowing a quarter-acre yard.
The Craftsman 37068 is a front-wheel-drive model with variable speed (we were not able to document its maximum speed), which lets you set your own pace. The 12-inch rear wheels are useful for turning and maneuverability, and a one-pull start and one-hand bag removal make for satisfied owners. This model features a 700 Platinum Series Briggs & Stratton Engine and a 22-inch cutting deck. Craftsman 37068 reviews indicate this relatively new model gets the job done with minimal stress. The price-to-value ratio is also appealing.| Buy it from Sears |
Other Recommended Lawn Mowers
Black & Decker MM275
For a small yard, this corded electric mower receives overwhelmingly positive reviews for its lightweight 38 pounds and easy storage, start up, and stop. Some users take issue with having to manage the cord but most reviewers prefer that to replacing a battery or dealing with gasoline. Six cutting heights, from 1 to 3.5 inches, can be adjusted for all wheels at once with one lever; the side bag attachment is sold separately. A 6.5 amp version is lighter and cheaper. Read more »
Toro 20331
The Toro brand lives up to its name with this mower, which boasts a standard 22-inch cutting blade, variable speed self-propelled drive system, 4-cycle Briggs & Stratton engine, and washout port for attaching a hose to clean out under the decking. Users like the price, ease of use, and front-wheel drive, but some grumble about flimsy parts. Read more »
Scotts 2000-20 Reel Mower
This noiseless reel mower provides a classic low-tech (as in, person-power) grass-cutting solution; it’s easy to maintain and store, and cuts without tearing the grass. Like other reel mowers, the Scotts 2000-20 20 in. has a cutting gap (the space between the wheels and blade), so you may need to make more passes. This model doesn’t as well on tall grass, but users find it sufficient and even desirable for small yards. Read more »
