I saw Mr. Adrien, our neighborhood church gardener, mowing protruding grass from the unused portion of the church lawn sitting at the wheels. Attracted by the unusual appearance of the mower, I approached Mr. Adrien with tons of enquiries. He summarized my curiosity by confirming that this unit has rear wheels of 12″ diameter and front wheel of 8″ diameter. These features make Snapper High Wheel Lawnmowers special! This machine discharges grass from the rear which can fall on the lawn or be collected in bags for disposal. They are excellent tools for cutting long grass which is not possible in all models.
