BLOOMINGTON, Minn. — Imagine a walk-behind mower with a self-propel drive system that is powered in both forward and reverse. That’s the game-changing idea behind Toro’s new 22-inch PoweReverse® Personal Pace® SmartStow® Recycler® mower. Homeowners can now mow with much less effort.

“The PoweReverse Personal Pace self-propel system engages in both forward and reverse, so you have extra power to get in and out of challenging spots,” explains Linnea McChesney, marketing associate at Toro. “This mower was designed with ‘human factors’ in mind to make mowing your lawn easier than ever before. It’s perfect for mowing in tight areas such as fence corners, around landscaping and playground equipment, and under low tree limbs or decks.”

The PoweReverse platform is now available with SmartStow technology, which allows the mower to be stored upright, reducing the storage footprint needed by up to 70%*. SmartStow is made possible by a unique Briggs & Stratton® EXi 163cc engine with Just Check & Add™ technology.  “Both the PoweReverse and SmartStow features are extremely popular with Toro customers, because they make yard work easier and more convenient,” adds McChesney. “We are very pleased and excited to combine these two customer-valued features into the ultimate ‘easy’ lawn mower – easy backup, easy storage, and easy to use and maintain.”

PoweReverse also features a new Iso-Flex™ shock-absorbing handle that reduces jolts and vibrations felt by the operator’s hands when mowing over uneven terrain. For added maneuverability,  the handle glides within a range to make it easier to control the mower in more challenging areas of your yard.

In addition, this new model is equipped with Toro’s Recycler cutting system, which suspends and recuts clippings into fine mulch for a healthy, lush lawn. When homeowners want to collect clippings, they can switch from mulching to bagging in seconds by flipping the Bag-on-Demand quick-change lever.

This new model is now available at The Home Depot  and authorized Toro dealers.

*Space savings are in relation to the space consumed by a Toro 22” walk power mower that is stored with the handle in the standard operating position.

**Based on average TraQline dollar share for walk behind mower market from 2015-July 2017
