ReadyStart Engine and Large Wheels for Easy Operation
Thanks to its ReadyStart Briggs and Stratton 675 series engine, you won't have to worry about priming or operating the choke on the Lawn-Boy 10640. Simply start the engine with one quick pull, and you're ready to mow.
Large 7-inch front wheels and 8-inch rear wheels help the Lawn-Boy 10640 run smoothly, easily gliding around turns and over obstacles in your yard.
Versatile Cutting System Meets Your Needs
The Lawn-Boy 10640 is ready to mulch, bag, or side discharge, depending on your needs. Without the bag, the mower will mulch the grass and leaf clippings back into your lawn. Alternatively, you can collect the grass and leaf clippings directly into the bag, leaving your lawn neat and clean.
For further convenience, the height of the blades is easily adjustable by setting the oversized handle grips to one of the large notches on each wheel. There are 7 different heights available between 1 and 4 inches, so you'll be sure to find the perfect setting for your lawn.
Designed with You in Mind
Built with you in mind, the Lawn-Boy 10640 has plenty of user-friendly features. To start, a one-piece handle increases maneuverability, and the lightweight, 20-inch steel cutting deck is perfect for mowing in tight areas.
Additionally, the top-mounted bagging system makes it easy to empty and replace the bag by simply inserting or removing the grass bag handle from the two notches at the base of the mower handle.

 "So far So good." 2010-08-23
By Sandman (USA)
Well, like a lot of the reviews I wondered if this mower would start on one pull right out of the box(after putting the oil in, ofcourse)....IT DID! Before we all get too carried away I have only used it one time so far, but it started each time after one pull after I stopped to unload the bag. It is a basic mower; but what else do you need? The more you have on it the more there is to break and repair. My grass was not overly tall and the mower did a good job of depositing most of the clippings in the bag.




If I were going to be completely picky I would say that the bag never became completely full. A majority of the clippings stop near the front and makes it difficult for the mower to continue to fill up the bag. However, that is being critical and the mower did a good job on a lot of leaves that were in my back yard and will be a great help once fall comes around.



My major dissapointment came from the Amazon PRIME deal. I signed up for it to try it out during the trial period and ordered it on a Thursday with an expected delivery date on the following Monday. I did not get the mower until Wednesday. So much for two-day shipping. I will have to evaluate the $79.99 a year if the two-day shipping is really not two-day shipping. Also, FedEx placed the box in my driveway on its side....why would they set the box on its side instead of laying it down flat? Some liquid leaked out, but did not appear to effect the mower though.

 "Nice mower shipped in box that couldn't take UPS abuse" 2010-08-07
By R. C. BOSIO (Michigan)
I lke my new lawnboy. It starts with one easy pull. I use the mulching feature and with its bigger engine than my last mower allows it to cut and mulch even when the lawn is pretty long. The only downside was the box it was shipped in, it wasn't heavy enough to take the abuse by UPS and one of the wheel height levers was damaged as it looked like the box was thrown off their truck somewhere along the line. It is amazing how UPS can they handle their packages arriving with the box damaged and all taped up, perhaps Amazon ought to review who they use for shipping.

 "Extremely disappointed" 2010-08-03
By Crabby C (Southern US)
I was ready to love this mower. Easy set up, the first few tries to start did not work as the cord didn't seem to "catch" when it was pulled. Finally it started up and what a great lawn mowing day that was!




A week and a half later, on my second attempt to use it, it will not start at all with plenty of oil, fresh gas, and a clean spark plug (I checked all of that). Pulling the cord is like pulling on a rope attached to a wall, there is no catch/give to it. 30+ pulls later it is sitting there like a bright green brick with a shiny new spark plug. "Hassle-free" my considerable behind. Very, very disappointed. Thankfully I didn't trust even the best reviews enough to buy it online--bought this at a brick and mortar store where it will be going back tomorrow.

 "Trick bag on the "Warranty" Probably a good product if you don't need a warranty." 2010-07-14
By R. Hollenbeck (Missouri , Near STL)
I bought this item by mail because I did not want to drive all over gods creation. Product arrived. I added oil and gas as instructed. Mower ran for 2 minutes then threw a rod. Took it to two LawnBoy service centers (also Briggs & Stratton SC). Without any disassembly they both pronounced "It threw a rod". Well no joke! They said no sense in taking it apart.....warranty will not cover it. They will treat it as you did not put oil in it.

Notified Amazon...said they could not take it back because it was hazardous. Said get a claim number on the Warranty form Lawnboy if you can not get satisfaction.

Called Lawnboy again. They sent me somewhere else that was also another 50 miles from my house. I asked for claim number....they said must be looked at by service center first.

Again another service center would not dissemble.

Called Lawnboy back. Again no claim number.....suggested I take it over and over to service centers till I found one that would take it apart if I wanted a claim number.



Later without hope...I took small engine apart. Obviously had oil in it. All friction surfaces were clean and perfect except for crank/rod connection (If there was no oil other surfaces would be damaged as well).




Contacted Lawnboy and offered to send pictures, of course dis-assembly voids the warranty. And yet they still would not take my name and give me a claim number.



Thanks a lot Amazon for being part of the system that lets everyone turn there back on the customer and point at someone else.

 "Super easy to start, runs with POWER" 2010-07-13
By L. Reinhart
My old mower died on me, and I was sick and tired of having to start and re-start it constantly. This Lawn Boy is now 4 for 4 on starts, one pull. On the first cut, my grass had been growing for about a month (since the old one died, half my lawn was uncut) and it was flawless. Didn't bog down at all. I am extremely happy with this mower.
