Hello all, My Industrial Design group is doing a project on lawnmowers, and I need to survey a few people about theirs. The main problem is that there's no grass in Detroit. If anyone would help me out, It would be greatly appreciated! Here we go: 1) What is the make and model of your lawnmower? Why did you choose this brand? 2) How would you improve your lawnmower? 3) What do you like specifically about your lawnmower? 4) Specific dislikes? 5) Do you feel safe operating your mower? If no, why? 6) How would you improve the starter on your mower? Thanks in advance, -Jeremiah-

I got it because it's a name I trust, and had the features I needed: mulcher, self-propelled, etc. My only complaint is that it is designed for a (...)

(...) Craftsman 15.5HP Tractor/ 6speed/42" cut. I choose the Craftsman tractor because I own a Craftsman push mower and it's always worked a like a charm, never with any problems. Of course I'm sure it's more due to the fact that the Briggs & (...) (24 years ago, 13-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) No grass in Detroit? You just haven't asked the right person yet! Oh, wait. You mean lawns. I do technically own a mower (but no lawn), so I'll answer this. (...)
