ride on – what a peice of rubbish starter motor is stuffed still has nipples on the tyres so has had very minimal use Show details
Worst Lawn mower ever – Had problems from the start first was the starter motor. They said had to wait 12 months for the part had it back in the repair shop five times since owning it and then today, the whole bolt system that holds the cutting blades up now, have broken disappeared. Every bolt on this machine is always loose. Have nothing but problems. Don’t buy… Read more
Masport would only repair it would not replace it and Bunnings would not swap it. The most expensive lawnmower I’ve ever had and still spending
Dear Lee, we sincerely apologise for the ongoing issues… Read more
Suitable for relatively flat yards – I bought this mower from bunnings about 10 months ago when on special I find it suits my needs as it was the only ride on with a catcher that can fit thru a 900mm gate opening. It does struggle on sloping ground. Tyre pressure needs to be maintained for accurate height adjustment. The seat is comfortable, controls well placed with many safety… Read more
motor cut out features. The micro switch that senses the catcher being in the correct location often gets full of grass and fails to work but a quick blow with the air blower each time it is used frees up the switch Likewise the catcher full switch also gets covered in grass and need to be cleaned regularly The battery is hard to get to at as the covers have to be removed from the front panel The discharge opening could do with a top deflector to stop grass being sent upwards and into the top of the catcher as the top of the catcher appears to be worn now and will need replacing eventually. Instruction manual is very comprehensive but fails to list or show service parts or any parts available for the machine generally
Never again – I purchased the ride on mower 6mths ago and it has been nothing but trouble. The pull start broke, mower would not engage in gear and the starter motor needs replacing. I hope no one ever needs to use their warranty. I found that very few service centres want to touch masport warranties, expect to travel a some distance for repairs. Masport… Read more
Customer service agent was so rude even telling me it was probably the person operating the mower. It’s pretty hard to blame the operator when firstly it wouldn’t start, he even told me it wasn’t his problem.
Good morning, we are sorry to hear you have had issues… Read more (+4 replies)
hard time – Brought the ride on mover with the catcher, used for 2 months no problem. After that the catcher is not staying on the mover and the cuts of the engine. to use mover we have to tie the catcher to the mover so it does not move off cutting the ignition. Show details
Hello Suja, these units have a safety micro switch that… Read more
Not happy! – Trouble with it from day 1. Seat broke off it is last straw. Have a 3/4 acre block, used about once per month for 18 months. Stalls if the grass a little bit long, catcher full of holes, jams if a little bit of string gets under it. Generally only use half the cutting width to stop stalling. Show details
Poor quality product – Catcher material started tearing after only 3 uses. Ignition key kept falling out of the keyhole. I have to stomp on reverse pedal to get it moving. The shoot to the catcher broken in 2 places & gets blocked, as a result the engine keeps conking out. The break does not work properly. Worse of all, starter motor fell off after 5 months. The lever to engage the cutting mechanism is in awkward place - too low to reach. Show details
Not suitable for lawns that aren't flat – Hydrostatic drive kept failing Wouldn't reverse and have had it repaired 4 times now Catcher is absolutely useless and rips easily Waste of money Buying a Toro next time Very disappointing purchase I got a paper weight not a mower Show details
Great Mower – Just purchased,used once only , waiting for lawn to grow so I can use again. Easy to use on flat suburban 1/4 acre block, controls easy to use. Catcher easy to empty and ride is comfortable.Some controls still a bit stiff to use. Fuel tank small but mower is economical. Very happy with my purchase.Engine noise is reasonable. Show details
Awesome – Once I sorted out my problem it is an awesome mower it is easy to operate the mower is very good good to ride on and it takes a lot less time to mow my yard Show details
Ride-on mower masport r7 -65.8 HD – I bought this mower from bunnings about 8 months ago, i find it suits my needs very well.We have a large front lawn which takes a push mower over 1 hour to do, but this ride- on takes around 15-20 minutes, the back lawn is smaller but tight, I find it easy to manoeuvre.The catcher is easy to empty even when operating, our lawns are mainly buffalo… Read more
grass and flat.The seat is comfortable, controls well placed, this mower has not had its battery recharged as yet. The battery is hard to get to for me, and the fuel tank could be a bit larger, but all in all this for me is perfect.I hope this review is of value to others,Peter.
