From Frustration to Liberation: A Suburban Dad’s Transformation
The Breaking Point
Michael R., a Portland accountant, dreaded Saturday mornings. His 2018 gas mower required winterization rituals worthy of a classic car, yet still left his lawn looking like it survived a weed whacker attack. The final straw? When his daughter covered her ears during his 7 AM mowing sessions.
The Revelation
“The first time I used the Yardworks mower, I actually heard birds singing while cutting grass. My lawn has fewer brown tips, and my neighbors thank me for not ruining summer mornings. I’m saving $150/year on maintenance, and my kids now help with yard work because it’s actually pleasant.”
