New From Ariens: Walk-Behind Mowers

AriensCo is adding to its equipment offerings with a new line of walk-behind mowers under the Ariens brand.

“We’re back in the walk business and in a big way,” says Andy Massignan, Director of Product for the Residential Market at AriensCo. “Our 21-in. walk mowers were designed by the AriensCo team from the ground up using every bit of knowledge to create a premium product for those who may never need to step up to a zero-turn mower.”

Each Ariens Razor model has a 5.5 in. deep steel deck for better mulching and more durability. Consumers can mulch, bag, or disperse clippings because the Razor mows the way the individual wants to mow. The four-model Razor lineup includes a push, a front wheel drive self-propelled, a rear-wheel-drive self-propelled model with Reflex speed control technology, and a high-end Reflex model featuring a dual cutting blade with LaserEdge Eversharp self-sharpening technology.

All models feature a Briggs & Stratton engine; dual lever height adjustment that quickly changes between seven positions from one- to four-in. heights; and quick adjust folding handlebar with three positions to fit operators of all heights with a simple turn of the knob. Handle can also be folded forward and locked to store. Plus, a two-year limited residential warranty on the engine and three-year limited warranties on certain models.

The Razor line-up will be available beginning in Spring 2023 at Ariens dealers in the U.S. as well as Big Box stores including Fleet Farm, Lowe’s, Northern Tool & Equipment and True Value in select markets.
