    Default Which SP 20-22inch slasher

    My Victa Mulchmaster 550 is getting tired and now needs more money spent on it before long.This time of year it's now starting to work it's hardest and looking for a replacement for reliability for the next few months.Only gets used for slashing tall grass during spring and autumn.
    Looked on web sites and the only thing i can find is a new mulchmaster,any other suggestions would be great.Here's the one going on gumtree soon.

    if you can get a good 550, l'd stick with what you know - its still the best mower ever made IMO - l'm using 560's now, but think the 550 was a better unit

    Yeah you might be right there.I'd prob go for a new current model.if nothing else is found in that deck size
    When getting parts for that 550 last year the shop said some parts not available for older models,which got me thinking and looking at current models

    Victa
    Was there any advantage going from 4 blades to 2 only with the latest model,thinking more blades more chopped up.
