Does Lawnboy make a 22' deck mower?

17 years ago

The Home Depot Lawnboy offerings are all 20" decks. do they make any with 22" decks?

    Sorry to be blunt, but Lawn-Boy doesn't make *any* mower---Toro makes them and paints them green. For a 22" unit, look at the Toro Recycler.

    Hope this helps.

    That is blunt, indeed. The LB line includes a couple of green Toros along with some unique machines. At least they were unique until Toro started stealing them back and painting them red! I specifically refer to the Toro 'Super Bagger' which previously was known as the LB 10795. Whatever.
    Yes, the Recycler is 22". LBs are 20" and 21".

    Saxman, if Toro hadn't decided to downgrade the L-B brand to entry-level, box-store-only status, move the Insight Platinums to the Toro brand (as "Super Baggers"), and drop the commercial units, I'd agree with you wholeheartedly that L-B mowers are unique from Toro mowers. Unfortunately, for all practical purposes, L-B now is nothing more than a green, entry-level, mass market Toro. :(

    While it is true that Lawnboy is really a brand of Toro, much Like Chevrolet is a brand of GM, that situation is common to many multi-brand companies. Whether an independent company called Lawnboy manufactured the lawnmower is irrelevant and the response does nothing to answer your question. Indeed the Lawnboy brand has been passed between various owners for decades.

    Toro does make several 21 inch models in the Lawnboy and Toro Super Recycler and Super Bagger series. They also make mowers with 22 inch decks in the Toro Recycler series.

    From 1971 to 1992 I was a Lawn Boy dealer. The Larsen-Olson company out of Minneapolis was my distributor...a real good outfit to work with. I sold a lot of mowers in those years and last week rebuilt engines on a 7265 and a 7086.
    Late in 1991 the sales rep stopped by & informed me that Toro was buying Lawn Boy and they would be sold at fleet type stores & discount stores. I had sold about 60 new mowers in 1991 & he asked how many I wanted for my spring order. I replied, "ZIPPO"....& said, "Pat, the party is over." and now, nearly 20 years later the party is truly over. 'Real' Lawn Boy mowers are no longer manufactured. Being semi retired I do still work on several each week, but don't put in the 12-16 hr days I used to.

    To answer the OP's question, no, there are no 22" Lawn Boy models.
