The mower has been occasionally been scalping my lawn for about a season even with the setting height at 4 inches. Off to the dealer and they say the spindles need to be replaced and something about the steering. $1300 will get this done. I live in the South with mainly a flat yard. I purchased this in May 2014 for about $1800. I certainly expected this product to last longer than 60 hours!!! Obviously very poor quality.
