Toro
Ripoff poor product

Bought a Toro self propelled electric start mower in June. The mower is Guaranteed to Start. I have had nothing but trouble with this mower. Within the first season, I had to bring it to an authorized dealer to have the electric start feature fixed. That was covered by warranty. Yet it has never worked even after the repair. I paid $100 more for this electric start feature when I bought the mower.

At the end of the 2004 season, I had it serviced because it would not start. The repair shop said that the needle in the carburetor was stuck due to bad gas. The same thing occurred at the beginning of the 05 season. I brought it back and they repaired it no charge. Now I can't get it started again. Each time I bring it in, it's $160 to repair.

I paid a premium price to buy this because I thought Toro was a premium brand. Previous to this, I had Sears mowers and never had these kind of problems. I have contacted Toro on several occasions and all they can tell me is that the warranty has expired. Needless to say, I will NEVER buy another Toro product. Moreover, I would advise anyone to buy cheap. A higher price does not mean higher quality.
