Toro can't make a decent residential mower to save their life. For a thousand dollar mower, they are poor quality and gearboxes strip out and on some models its a PITA to even replace the belt.
Pair that with the fact we only have 2 dealers in the entire state over here (1 in perth which mainly deal with commercial toro which is quality equipment) and you have no hope
Yerp ,worst mower ever ,I guess that's why Bunnings sell it, just like the YardKing self propelled mower.
I like the 1953 Toro Whirlwind 18 inch mower though , sold here as a Rawco in 1956.
The Toro had a mesh that was inserted to turn the mower into a mulcher mower.
