  • Solid Electric Start Model

    Feb 15 '12
    Pros: Easy start
    Efficient mulching
    Adaptable self-propel pace
    Cons: Heavy

    Summary: I've used the 20095 for a full season now. I upgraded to this electric start model, so that when I'm away my wife can mow without having to try to pull-start the mower. Well, the electric start feature has spoiled me. The pull-start feature does work on ... read more

  • 17 year old Toro Super Recycler GTS5

    Sep 09 '11
    Pros: It lasted 17 years without a trip to a repair shop.
    Cons: Wheel bearings/axels wore out at 17 years.

    Summary: I purchased my first Toro Super Recycler in 1994. I have been using it for 17 years. I have been 100% satisfied. After 17 years the wheels are very loose and wobble. It still starts 1st pull every time. I have changed the oil almost every season. The oil ... read more

  • It takes some getting used to....

    Jul 22 '10
    Pros: Works fine in side discharge
    Personal Pace cuts mowing time
    Well designed and integrated
    Cons: Handle is not adjustable in height.
    Limited mulching capacity
    Hard to pull backwards

    Summary: This unit replaced my 16 year old Recycler-2, which is why I stuck with Toro.  I was ready to return it when I first tried it, but now I really like it.The mower is much more limited in mulching capacity than my old ... read more

  • Stay Away From The Toro 20099 Kohler Mower!

    Jun 09 '10
    Pros: The Personal Pace system is really nice. 
    Cons: Piece of crap.

    Summary: I have had three mowers in my lifetime, and I am in my fifties.  The first was a Lawnboy, and I ran it so long I rebuilt it twice, and it was still a pretty good mower all-around.  The second was a Snapper Jet Vac with a Briggs and it ran ... read more

  • Gives a great cut, but too much effort needed to get it

    Jun 03 '10
    Pros: Even cut, Personal Pace system, width of cut, variety of cutting lengths.
    Cons: Poor discharge of cut grass, buildup of grass under body, vibration

    Summary: I've had this mower since around 2002 and only had to get it because of an unfortunate accident involving fingers with my old Lawn Boy (which I loved). I'm not unhappy with it exactly, but in the only 8 years I've had it for, it's ... read more

  • Guaranteed to Start??

    Sep 20 '09
    Pros: Climbs inclines like a pro, love the personal pace and hose cleanout.
    Cons: Leaves pieces of uncut grass, difficult for short people to pull start, is very heavy.

    Summary: I bought this mower in May and I loved it.  I'm a small framed 64 yr. old female with a half acre to mow in Florida.  This mower was great on inclines but a little heavy around the various gardens.  I didn't have to pull very hard and it ... read more

  • Toro renegs on warranty

    May 11 '08
    Pros: Works well but struggles in long grass.
    Cons: Toro not honoring its warranty obligation.

    Summary: I purchased a Toro 20056 (s/n270000894) with an aluminum body and immediately had problems. The blade clutch wasn't securely tightened and became loose during the first mowing, eventually failing to spin up when engaged and causing a violent vibration. I ... read more

  • Guaranteed to Start Warranty is worthless - there is no warranty and it didn't start

    Mar 01 '08
    Pros: Mulches great, personal pace drive works well on flat surfaces
    Cons: Non-existent warranty/customer support, overpriced, heavy, not good on slopes, didn't start after first year

    Summary: Bought Toro SR4 Model 20055 Personal Pace Drive mower in March of 2007 for $530, used it approx 15 times in 2007 (less than 12 hours total usage). The Good: The mower works great for mulching, however if you are looking for a mower to use to bag ... read more

    Aug 12 '07
    Pros: Mulches even long grass into tiny invisible pieces. Doesn't bog down in heavy grass.
    Cons: No electric starter.

    Summary: As I have used Toro lawn equipment for over 30 years, I knew that this Toro model 20057, Super Recycler mower would be the perfect one to start my new lawn-care service with. Below are key features that will be discussed a bit later. Features of this ... read more

  • Toro 20037 Good mower, but one gripe

    Jun 28 '07
    Pros: Personal Pace, aluminum deck, B&S engine, maneuverability, durability
    Cons: Bad side-discharge chute design

    Summary: I've been buying Toro mowers since 1975. They're durable mowers that provide a great cut. Of the walk-style mowers I've had, all but one have had aluminum decks, which contribute to the durability. I bought the 20037 Super Recycler new in 2002. It's ... read more

  • You won't be disappointed with this mower

    Jun 04 '07
    Pros: OHC engine has good power. Easy start Awesome mulching Personal pace works well
    Cons: Pulling the mower back is a little tricky, but you get the hang of it.

    Summary: First, a BIG thanks to mkowaleski. Reading his very detailed review of the SR4 20057 led me in the right direction, and I felt I should chime in with my own thoughts. We live on half an acre in Atlanta. I don't mind cutting the grass, and rather ... read more

  • Toro Super Recycler Mower 20058

    Apr 30 '07
    Pros: easy start easy push self-paced selfpropelled
    Cons: heavy requires more regular maintenance than I think a push mower should.

    Summary: So far, so good. I purchased the mower Spring of 2005. It's the model with the electric start. We spent the cash on the electric start because my wife said she would mow the lawn if she could start it. The electric start is a nice feature, but IMHO ... read more

  • Toro Super Recycler SR4 20058

    Mar 01 '07
    Pros: Electric Start, Self Propelled, Blade Clutch, 5 Year Full Coverage & Guaranteed Start Warranty!
    Cons: Incredibly Expensive.

    Summary: After moving into a new home my eleven year old, 4 horsepower Craftsman mower was literally choked to death by the thickness of my backyard lawn forcing me to seek a more capable performer. After extensive research in the spring of 2006 I narrowed my ... read more

  • Toro Super Recycler model 20053 push mower (Not Personal Pace)

    Sep 12 '06
    Pros: I have a thick green lawn that this mower brings a manicured look to.
    Cons: Handle needs a cushion grip.

    Summary: It was hard not to buy the Personal Pace system but my lot is 60 by 138ft. With house, gardens, shed and trees I seem to back up about a third of the time and that would be a manual thing anyway. My Father often remarked at the logic of paying to have ... read more
