Same as said above. A majority of the Big Box version mowers are not the same as you would find a dealer. Not necessarily saying they are bad, but you do get what you pay for. A LOT of the small equipment (mowers, weed eaters, pressure washers, chain saws, etc...) are made by the same manufacturers but painted various colors with different decals and sold under different names. At my previous job we did testing for a China-based company that made many different pieces of small equipment and all sold under numerous different "American" company names that are very recognizable as being around for a long time. They had just bought the right of the name from these places.
