Toro Recycler 21 In. Self-Propel Mower vs Toro Recycler 22 in. Self-Propelled Mower

Both are Toro Recycler gas walk-behinds with the same mulching system, so the real choice is deck size, drive feel and engine. The 21321 is the lighter, rear-wheel-drive 21 in. mower with a 140cc Briggs & Stratton and variable speed; the 22 in. Recycler is bigger and heavier with a 150cc engine and Personal Pace auto-drive on the models that carry it. Buy the 21321 for a smaller yard and easier lifting and storage; buy the 22 in. if you want a wider cut and a drive system that matches your walking pace.

• Choose the Toro 21321 if you have a smaller or uneven lawn, want a lighter mower to push, lift and store, and prefer rear-wheel drive with a simple variable-speed lever.
• Choose the Toro Recycler 22 in. if you want a wider cut to finish faster, a larger engine, and a heavier steel deck that shrugs off rougher ground.
