Good solid product.
I've used a 26" ride on mower for the last 25 years, so I wasn't too keen on walking behind one.
First impressions on opening the box were better than expected. Only the handle needs assembly, which was straightforeward, because the instructions are good. It has belt drive to the rear axle and direct drive to the blade, front axle is sprung..
It all felt well made and solid design. 600 ml of 30 grade oil is provided. 400 ml is required to fill sump. Fill petrol tank and push plunger 3 times, pull starter cord and away she goes.
Engine is quiet and smooth. It has plenty of power and torque. There are 7 height adjustments. I used number 4 for my lawn and it breezed through it as quickly as my ride-on.
I tried it on a patch of rough grass and nettles at number 7 and it munched its way through.
Well pleased overall. Read full review

Lovely Mower, but shame about the damaged wheel cover.
Its a lovely looking Mower and starts and works very well, but unfortunately the inner projection cover on the back right side drive wheel broke in half's on my first using the machine, which is very disappointing to say the least, I have asked for a replacement, cover plate for the wheel, but not received it yet Read full review

Rocwood lawnmowers
With a few gardens to cut I needed a new lawnmower, something that does it all in one with self propelled. Iβve searched a few brands and this seemed the best price for what I needed. So I took a punt on a brand Iβve never heard of.
The lawnmower arrived within days. Was extremely simple to assemble. I added SAE 30 oil and fuel and it started within three pulls of the cord. The engine is quiet and runs at a fixed governed speed.
Self propelled at a good steady pace. And everything works as it should.
Having got to finally use it today I am very impressed.
Time will tell if itβs reliable etc. But so far it seems like a good bet! Read full review

Easy to set up from box, easy start, and self propelling motion is very good.
Did my lawns in half the time it took with my old hover mower!
Very pleased with purchase.

This mower will go through a jungle with ease.
Simple to put together, and once together and filled with oil and petrol, it started on the first pull, and does this every time. This will cut through long grass easily and with a one lever adjustment just makes life that much easier . I`m very pleased with it . The only thing I would have liked included would have been a service manual , with some information on the origin of the engine, and whether or not spare parts are going to be available . The price for this mower was very good considering the size of it, its auto drive system is a bit on the fast side, but keeps you fit, and would be very useful on inclines .Read full review

Bad hot startup
Construction satisfactory.
One major problem is the lousy start up when hot. It starts well when cold and runs well. Starting it up after emptying a full grass collector is a major problem. Experiments with priming (i.e the number of priming pumps with the awareness of possible flooding) suggests it may reluctantly start after 8 priming pumps. On occasions I have abandoned it to allow it to cool for a subsequent cold startup. It is bad value because of this fault.Read full review

Ease of use
With my old push along petrol mower it took me an hour and a half to cut my front and back lawns. With the self propelled function I can cut that down to an hour (no pun intended). I am very pleased with the mower and would recommend as a well priced productRead full review
