  • Wanted to share some of my time behind the wheel with the new #toro #flexforce 60v #superrecycler with you all and give you an idea of what it is really like to mow with this thing. So far, I am really enjoying it. I hope you enjoy this chill laid back video and maybe it will spark some questions in your head to leave in the comments for me about this mower!

      I have the 22" vortex recycler and have been using a replacement toro blade meant for the gas version. It is slightly longer but have no issues. The mower runs in high rpm a lot more and also drains battery a bit faster.

    Loving mine so far! Cut quality is fantastic, bagging is significantly improved over standard 60v models, and mulching really munches up the grass into little bits. I do feel like the QC on these leaves a bit to be desired. Left front wheel ever so slightly higher than the rest (1/16 - 1/8 of an inch)... my handlebars are slightly "bent" to the left as well. I opted not to return as neither issue is egregious, but still something I've noted. I too wonder how long the little plastic retainer on the battery door will hold up before it breaks off like yours did. No sure why they went to that style -vs- their previous 60v design where the spring pushes the door closed instead of open.
    EDIT - Forgot to say... no driveline sqeuaks on mine.

      @@TheLawnMentor One reason why I stayed with Toro though... parts parts parts! New belt is less than $15. And if I ever need anything else (blades, bags, wheels, etc), I can walk into any mower shop and typically find it if I don't want to wait and online order. Not saying other brands don't make good products, but everything breaks at some point... and most of the other e-mower manufacturers don't stock parts in local shops. That is, if they even keep making the parts after 3-4 years.

I can't believe how great it is wish I had got one long time ago and if you think that mower is quiet the 40v is quieter than a weed eater.😳😳😊😊😊😜😜😜

    I have the exact same model. The first one was returned to Home Depot because the prongs on the base of the mower near the back that attach to the personal pace handlebar were bent. Also the battery and charger didn’t appear to be new all the seals were broken the boxes were beat up and there was visible wear. It appears since it shipped directly from Toro in El Paso they sent me a used unit or refurbished. Extremely disappointed as a first time Toro purchaser.
