Won't Quit
I bought a Briggs&Stratton 500 Series Lawn Machine over two years ago and I cannot get this lawnmower to stop working, no matter what I put it through. My yard and surrounding area is easily one full acre and this push mower plows through it every other week just beautifully. I double my mower as a shredder and a mulcher and so far there isn't anything, within reason, that this machine cannot do. I recently cleared a wooded area surrounding one side of my house and I used my 500 Series mower to shred all of the brush, vines, sticks, stumps, and leaves that accumalated over the years. I was able to create a beautifully manicured area out of a place that was once just over grown woods. I chopped up boards, roots, large sticks, baseballs, golfballs, bottles, and even rocks half the size of the engine itself. Naturally, the mower would shut off when it hit something big but it started right back up every single time. I did not have to worry about what was lurking under the leaves and brush because I knew my mower could handle it. I cannot describe how pleased I am with this mower; it is easily the best investment I have ever made in my life. I am on a mission to see just how much abuse this mower will take without breaking down on me. All I can say right now is that it has been through more than all of the mowers I have ever owned before, combined. The only maintenance I have ever done is gas, oil, and cleaning the air filter. This machine absolutely will not quit and it has made me a Briggs&Stratton buyer for lifel

This is a hard-working, easy to start and use push mower.
I have had this mower for two years. It starts very easy, pushes easy and is very dependable. It can handle tall grass and unlevel ground. I love it.

Military quality
I bought my mower 4 years ago. Without spark plug changing, without oil changing, my lawnmower works perfectly. This mower is worthy of a military equipment.
