Weibang mulcher

Does anyone own or has anyone used one of these weibang dedicated mulchers?

Any thoughts on a mulcher - I'm between this and the husqvarna at the moment but need to make a decision as I really need one now as the new machine itch has arrived again:)

  • I'll be watching this thread with interest, I've never had a dedicated mulching mower but could do with 1, i was looking at husqvarna and stiga but i like the look of the weibang in your link.

    I'll try adding a link to it for you hope it works

      Ita one of those I'm replacing /adding to. Don't get me wrong I could just get another as I like the Honda izys.
      The only real issue is the decks on them in that they tend to rust a bit after a few years and also I don't know if this is the same as the small izys but Honda decided it was a good idea to change the wheel bearings to plastic bushes that disintegrate meaning you have to change them to the old atyle metal ones after a year or so.
      Not big things and speaking really quietly I don't need another mower but I can't help myself:)

        I think at that sort of money I could put up with a bit of rust after a few years. My mulcher/side discharge mower until now has been a Victa Mulch Master which has been absolutely legendary but now needs replacing. I will ask about the bearings on the Honda next time I'm at the dealership.

        I guess the biggest question for me is what kind of length of grass are these dedicated mulchers effective in? We have a large fortnightly site where collection isn't necessary but it can get very long at times and we've always maintained it with the side discharge on the Victa.

          Don't buy the izy! (Can't believe I'm saying that as I like them!)
          Had a good go with the weibang today and it's much better than the izy.
          Will post some pics later of a lawn that had got far too long and it's been left as good as a cut and collect 4 wheeler. It just makes the cutting disappear much better than the Honda ever has.

    The Weibang is definitely a good looking mower, looks very robust, I wonder why it's not got a 3 year warranty? Never used a mulcher before, are they worked hard?
    • PRO
      Are my mulchers worked hard or in general?
      They are good if you have sites that you never collect the grass on as they work better than 2or 3 in one machinery.(etesia maybe withstanding) I think they work best without the side discharge flap as well as that must disrupt airflow round the deck which is what you need to chop the grass small.

        Yes mate, in general . Just trying to work out why they don't add a 3 year pro warranty to them..:-)
