Engine, deck width and which wheels drive · review
The BILT HARD 201cc deck with a fixed-speed drive added. At $330 it is the cheapest self-propelled mower here, and at 89.2 lb one of the heaviest.
This shares the 201cc engine, the 21-inch 3-in-1 deck and the 1.2 to 3.75-inch range of the BILT HARD push mower. For $30 more you get a self-propelled drive and 7.3 more pounds.
The drive runs at one walking speed. That suits an open lawn, but it is less pleasant in tight turns and around beds, where a variable drive lets you slow down.
With 150 ratings at 4.0, this has less history than the SENIX or PowerSmart mowers, and the seller is listed as TOPUL. The brand asks owners to contact it with problems but states no warranty term in the bullets.
Stop the engine and let the blade come to a complete stop before you clear the chute or reach under the deck. Fuel and oil handling is covered in the maker’s manual, and that manual outranks this page.

No. The listing says the fixed walking speed gives consistent forward movement. The YARDMAX is the one on this shelf with a speed lever.
The listing does not say whether the front or rear wheels are driven. That matters on hills, so check the product manual or ask the seller first.
7.4/ 10
The value pick for self-propelled gas, as long as a fixed speed suits how you walk.
A buyer who wants the most engine for the least money and walks at a steady pace.

201cc OHV gas · 21 in cut · push · 1.2 to 3.75 in · 3-in-1 · 9.0 ft-lb torque · 81.9 lb
The biggest engine among the push mowers here: 201cc and a stated 9.0 ft-lb of torque, on a 3-in-1 deck that weighs a heavy 81.9 lb without drive.
Best for: A flat lawn that gets tall between mowings, where torque matters more than weight.

144cc OHV gas · 18 in cut · push · 1.5 to 3.9 in · side discharge only · 58.4 lb · 2-year warranty
An 18-inch steel-deck push mower with side discharge only. It is narrow enough for tight yards, but heavier than the wider SENIX push model.
Best for: A small yard with tight gates or corners where an 18-inch deck fits and a 21-inch does not.
≈ $200
170cc OHV gas · 21 in cut · rear-wheel drive · 1.5 to 3.9 in, 6 positions · bag, mulch, rear discharge · 1.4-bushel bag
A 21-inch rear-wheel-drive gas mower with 3-in-1 cutting and 10-inch rear wheels. Its 3.6-star rating is the lowest of the gas mowers here.
Best for: A medium yard with slopes where a buyer wants a known mower at a mid price and checks stock first.
