I'm looking to purchase a Weibang Legacy 56 Pro Petrol Rear-Roller Lawnmower and would like to hear other people's experience with this machine. I have been using Hayter Harrier 56's for many years, but the last few years, since the new model came out, these mowers have become seriously unreliable!

My questions are:

Are they reliable? (I see that they have a three-year commercial warranty, which is a good sign)

Will they collect wet grass?

Is the forward speed a comfortable pace?

Are parts readily available and sensibly priced?

Does the box stay on? (On all the Hayter Harriers that I have owned, there has been a tendency for the box to fall off from time to time!)

Any feedback is much appreciated.

  • I have been runing self propelled 21 inch cut weibangs mowers for the last 2 years very pleased with them . Cut well in wet and parts I get f barthrams mowers
  • 'Does the box stay on'...?  We run 2 x 48's and a 56 and have done for many years and can't remember a box coming adrift.  Have just bought an Atco rotary roller that they insist picks up in the wet................we shall see!

  • i bought a 56 legacy a few weeks ago and i am running it up against lawn flite pro 21 inch and i say so far it is by far a better mower cuts wet grass better . i cut a new lawn to us last week took around 5 inch's of grass and clover off in 1 pass with the weibang were the lawnflite had to have 2 passes i am very happy with them

  • I run 2 weibang pro 48 with bbc the 56 at moment dont have bbc as they cant get a bbc that will last its 3 year warranty. They are brilliant machines in wet or dry they have in my opinion blowing the competition away

    Thank you for all your feedback, it is much appreciated! The Weibang sounds like it may be worth a try, the three-year commercial warranty sounds attractive! Also the Atco is quite a bit cheaper and is definitely worth thinking about for the future!

    Thanks again for the feedback.

  • if i could afford it i change the 3 kaaz for weibangs  . the only down side with them for me is the weight and the grass box has a backward taper so it needs a good shake to get grass out but the 88 litres cap means less emptying and it will be full to the top

      Thank you for your feedback Ray! Actually getting a full bag of grass sounds like a good thing, something that I can rarely achieve with the Hayter, even when the bag has just been power washed!

  • Another good informative post.
