Home and Auto Lawn Mower Question

**petegz28** · 07-09-2016, 12:31 PM

Okay so I am looking for a lawn mower that has good vacuum power. I have a Honda dual-blade that is awesome for mulching and does a good job bagging but it has the inherent problem most mulching mowers have which is poor vacuum.

I am looking into a true bagging mower and I keep getting pointed to the Snapper Hi Vac. I guess a difference is the Snapper Hi Vac as a inward-rolled lip at the bottom of the deck which creates more vacuum as opposed to most mulching mowers which has an outward-rolled (flared) lip which I guess is designed more to keep the blades in the deck area so they are cut multiple times.

The problem I don't like with the mulcher and it seems to be common is that no matter how sharp your blades are or how slow you go, a strand of grass here and there, stingers, is left uncut or bent.

So I appeal to the lawn care nuts of CP for their advice on a good bagging mower with excellent vacuum.
