Is the Murray 20-inch gas mower self-propelled?

No. It is a push mower, so you supply the forward force. That is fine on flat ground but tiring on slopes.

Can I bag or mulch with it?

No. It is side discharge only, and Murray does not offer bag or mulch attachments for this model.

How big a yard will it handle?

Murray rates it for about a quarter to half an acre on flat terrain. The 20-inch cut and 125cc engine suit that size.

What oil does it take?

SAE30 oil is included with the mower. Check the engine manual for the fill amount before the first start.

How low and high does it cut?

Cutting height runs from 1.2 to 3.75 inches across four wheel positions, adjusted without tools.

Is $299 a good price?

Home Depot lists it at $299 as of November 8, 2026, and it is the only new price we track. There is no recent price history to show whether that is a discount.

4.1 / 52,072 ratings

Ratings average 4.1 out of 5 across 2,072 reviews, which points to a mower most owners find adequate rather than excellent. Buyers tend to like the easy start and the steel deck; the common complaints are about the push-only drive and the lack of bagging.
