Lawn-Boy was
acquired by The Toro Company in 1989 and eventually consolidated to
the Toro headquarters in Bloomington, Minnesota. Since the acquisition
from Toro, Lawn-Boy has introduced new series of lawn mowers, including
a new lineup of walk-behind mowers and an entirely new category of
Zero Radius Turning mowers.
Over the years, Lawn Boy lawn mowers have always had a
strong customer support and backing. They continue to do well in the
market and have
even upgraded their line to include zero-radius turning mowers. This
all came about with the introduction of their better-quality machines
in their Gold Series lawn mowers.
Many agree that Lawn-Boy's Gold Series mowers are one of their best
products to date; combining both durability and adaptability that
consumers are looking for, not to mention a fair price that balances
budget and
quality.
In years past, Lawn Boy switched hands and began using Toro engines.
While Toro has a strong name and offers quality, the first and
only Lawn-Boy that my father used was fatally injured as he ran
over a
small stump, and cracked its aluminum head. It would never recover.
As we
wheeled what we once referred to as "Kermit" home from the
town mechanic, we weren't sure what would have happened had the head
been made of cast iron, like other, perhaps more expensive brands.
Nevertheless, Lawn Boy's two-cycle (2-cyl) engine is its claim
to fame as many prefer mixing the gas and oil themselves, thereby
eliminating
the need to change the oil regularly as in other brands that
do not use a 2-cyl system. Some of Lawn-Boy's zero-turning
radius lawn mowers
now use a Briggs and Stratton Engine, which do not operate
on a
2-cyl system. So, what are you waiting for? Go and buy Lawn-Boy
snow blower
and make your lawn as beautiful as you want.
