John Bushey Fair Haven, VT I’ve owned a Toro lawnmower now for five years. It’s a self-propelled front wheel drive with a detachable leaf/grass bag. To this day, there is no priming or choking the mower – pull the handle only once and it will start. I’ve NEVER had a mower in my 56 years Read more…
Jeff Young Bloomington, MN My dad, Irving Young, a production control supervisor, and uncle, Dennis Larsen, both worked at Toro during the 50s, 60s, and 70s. I grew up across the street from Toro’s headquarters in Bloomington, and often would walk through the plant to bring my dad lunch or dinner depending on his shift. Read more…
Daryl Briten Ashfield, MA I can’t imagine that one little lawn mower can begin to compete with stories about Toro’s heavy farm equipment, but if there was ever “a little lawn mower that could”, then this is the one. Twenty-eight years ago, we bought this small mower to care for our one-acre property in Massachusetts. Read more…
Kevin Coughlin Alton Bay, NH I bought my first Toro mower around 1982. I liked it because I could get the tine de-thatcher with it. I still use the mower to this day. It’s been tuned up twice, a few blades, but that’s it. It still starts up right away. It may have seen better Read more…
Rod Romine Minot, ND Ten years ago there were “Welcome to Minot” signs erected on the five US highways entering Minot. No one assumed the duty of tending to the landscaping around the signs. They soon became overgrown with weeds and grass. We have a morning coffee group of about 15 regulars that meet every Read more…
Dan Elliott Schenectady, NY I’ve seen a lot about lawn care equipment in the centennial salutes. But the machine that gets the most respect, in my opinion, is my Toro 521 snowblower that I bought in 1985. It’s a well-engineered machine for the job. It has hard rubber tires that never go flat, a 21″ Read more…
Chris Macy Lafayette, IN Where do I begin? As a kid, I would go to my grandpa’s farm to watch my dad on weekends mow the lawn. Rarely would he buy anything new, but his Toro Wheel Horses would be the exception. If it wasn’t a Toro Wheel Horse, he would say, “You might as Read more…
George Weeks St. Anthony, MN I have a hand me down 1928 Toro Silver Flash that’s in very good condition. It cuts and sounds great. It’s been in the family since new. One minor flaw, however, you have to be Hercules or Atlas to push it. Very heavy!
Joel Olson Lewistown, MT Starting my career at the age of 17 at a local golf course built in the 1930s, Toro has been a household name from the start — from the 690 sprinkler heads installed in 1977 to the comfy Groundsmaster 4100 that cuts what the 690’s grew. Now 17 years later, and Read more…
Joe Gladke Shoreview, MN How old is my mower? That is a good question. It certainly appears to be older than the one shown in your 1923 photo. Since I don’t have a golf green, I currently don’t use my golf greens mower. Although, if I ever get the urge to have my own putting Read more…
