Briggs and Stratton 11A-414E729

This lawn mower, which was bought at the home depot, is a pretty good mower and I have been using it for quite some time. I would say around two years to be more exact.


I wouldn't really say I have any complaints with its mowing, more with the mower starting up every once in a while...

Sometimes it doesn't start at all and when checked it doesn't seem to be having any problems because the fuel is full, oil is full an clean but still does not run...after meddling with it for a while it finally runs.

Another problem would be that it sometimes smokes up by the exhaust area and the smell is pretty much unbearable.

The blade seems to bend an break too easily as well but I wouldn't say that's the mowers fault, just a soft blade.

It seems to collect grass around the edges an on the inside of the mower causing it some problems or just leaving the mower extremely dirty,

Other then what I have listed above, the mower is pretty much all in all a good mower an when there's a job to be done, I can trust the mower will do it.

The problems listed above aren't as bad as they sound and don't happen that often at all..

I guess i'm pretty much done, thank you for uhm letting me review and hopefully everyone has a great time mowing ;) ...

thank you very much and enjoy =]

Briggs is a cheap piece of junk

The last two Briggs mowers I bought sucked, they will only startup for a couple months and then hardly starts, quits, smokes, and is just a horrible waste of your money. I heard that their gas tanks rust out and then the rust clogs the fuel lines, what a crappy mower, and a crappy customer service line. Don't buy them.
