Toro 21 Recycler Unboxing Startup and Review
Model 21352
Toro Recycler 21 in. Briggs and Stratton Low Wheel RWD Gas Walk Behind Self-Propelled Lawn Mower with Bagger
This mower comes with a bottle of SAE 30 oil and all you need to do is add the entire bottle and unleaded fuel and you are ready to go. This is what I consider an entry level walk behind mower. There are a couple of things I really, love about this mower. No more oil changes all you need to do is check the oil and keep it full. It is very easy to push without engaging the rear wheel drive. It’s very easy to start my granddaughter and wife can start this mower. And so many walk behind mowers are very heavy and this mower even with a steel deck is light enough for anyone to maneuver in tight places like around trees and shrubs. I definitely give this mower two thumbs up. 3 year warranty on the Briggs and Stratton engine and 2 years on the rest.

I just bought my first house 3 weeks ago and I just bought this new lawn mower. I am officially a homeowner and I can't wait to cut my own grass, you did a great job on the video and telling people about the instructions and how to operate it.

Lightweight is good and what did I use it for it’s a lawnmower ru-vid.comUgkxTPN04aT-Qdjr_KS3ql7ng8wnU3wwsCqk also recommend Yes it is lightweight so hence not as robust as our old one. But if you take care it does the job really well.

Honestly this no oil change system is pretty okay for those who don’t bother with maintenance on these things. But when it comes to me, I change the oil every season no matter what the manufacturer says. The way this system works is it keeps the oil from deteriorating. Oil deteriorates faster when it gets hot, so they made the engines run cooler. To do that they use a lot more plastic in the engine, they now use a new overhead valve system instead of the old flathead design, and they are using an improved cooling fan design. However oil will still deteriorate at some point and it also ages, that is why I’d still do oil changes on this engine

@DavesShop 2 года назад

Hello BCSERK, I agree I like to change the oil on my mowers too. I am using this mower to test how it will perform over time without changing the oil. There are many people that don't want to change oil or have the know-how to change the oil so they just run a mower until it quits. This engine is also backed by a 3-year warranty from Briggs and Stratton. So far I haven't had any issues or even needed to add oil after 50 hours of use. I will continue to update yearly with my findings on how the mower is doing.

There are some of us that are traditional and change the oil on our mowers. There are also as many people that never change the oil on a mower, either they don't know how or have the ability to do it. So this would be the type mower they might need.

It's going to be hard for to accept no oil changes but I will do it. My neighbor has a 15 year old Craftsman tractor lawn mower. He just beats the snot out of it and it runs perfect. I asked him how often he changes the oil. He says never. I couldn't believe it. So I put synthetic in my Snapper 12 HP Snowblower and it will be 3 years this winter. Old habits die hard.

@DavesShop 2 года назад

Hi WB6162, I agree this is my first mower to not change the oil every season. This engine that Briggs and Stratton has designed so that oil changes are not needed I have used this one for more than 50 hours and so far I haven't even needed to add any oil. Most people never change the oil in mowers either they don't know how or just don't want to. I keeping an eye on this one to see how it holds up. The engine is warranty for 3 years.

Hi Renee, the flap you are speaking of is for your safety so that if you happen to run over something while mowing the flap will keep it from hitting you. This flap shouldn't keep you from backing up the mower. I really recommend leaving the flap in place.

Do not like the instruction book that comes with it. Covers to many different type engines and hard to tell which one you have. Need the book to cover just the mower you purchased. Mine started after about 5 pulls the first time. The self drive is pretty fast so you have to feather the drive handle to get the speed you want. One thing I don't like is where the flapper fits against the bag. There is a small gap and it blows leaves and grass all over you when you are mowing. Will try to come up with a fix with a piece of foam or something. When you register it for the warranty they give you the option of getting a free side discharge chute.

Hi Howard, I agree the instruction book covers different engines and it would be better if it were specific to the engine you have. The fit of the grass-catching bag could be better. I just remind myself this is an entry-level mower and they just do make them like they used to.

So glad you are feeling better. I just found your video on this mower. I was looking for something that explained why there is no side discharge opening. I opened my box and thought about taking the mower back. Because I never use the bag. Could you maybe explain to me why there is no side discharge? I mean if the grass is a little wet won't it just bog down?

The only time I ever use a bagger on a mower is if I have an area where the weeds are really bad in the spring I will bag that area just to help keep the weeds from spreading even further. Other than that I prefer not using a bagger. I am glad you were able to get the mower you liked with out the bag. Happy mowing. Have a wonderful Easter and stay safe

I am able to purchase unleaded fuel without ethanol at walmart not all walmarts carry it. You can also use unleaded fuel with ethanol as long as you add a fuel stabilizer I done that for years with no issues. That said you don't use that much fuel anyway so if you want to spend the extra money for Premium gas I would.

I do wonder about never changing the oil because, doesn't it need clean oil now and then? Is topping it off when needed enough to keep the oil clean forever and ever?

@DavesShop Год назад

Hi Patricia, This is a controversial issue. This mower has a 3-year warranty from Briggs and Stratton so I didn't change the oil on it for 3 years as a test. In the 3 years, I never even needed to add any oil and it was still semi-clear so not black and dirty. I have since changed the oil and air filter just because that's what I have always done on my mowers. If you decide to not change the oil make sure you change the air filter once per year this makes a real difference in how the oil looks and performs by keeping dirt out of the engine. Also if you just use the mower for personal use that also has an effect on how long the oil will last.

What is great about no oil change oil breaks down causes higher emission cuts engine life in half

@DavesShop 3 года назад

Scott here’s what Briggs and Stratton explains about no oil change technology. In the average lawn mower engine, the two main reasons to change the oil are: Dirt and debris get into the oil and cause wear. Through regular usage, heat turns the oil into sludge. The EXi engine utilizes a cooling fan optimized for airflow to help keep it cool, as well as an overhead valve design that minimizes heat through the cylinder head, reducing the oil temperature by about 10 degrees. The oil that's in there will last longer. Cooler oil will take longer to break down. To keep the oil clean, Briggs turned to an automotive-style paper air filter in a tight, press-fit element to keep dirt out. The oil fill tube also includes an extended lip to help prevent debris from getting in while adding oil to the engine

I've tried other heights as well including the front wheels being slightly lower and even slightly higher than the back or front wheels and vice versa.
