Reviews
I recommend talking to a real person.
I was on a on one of the electronic calls with Cassandra. I requested a mower blade and specified that my Craftsman mower did not have a six point star receiver, and advised that it had an open 'S' receiver. I was advised that the correct part had been found and paid for the order. When it arrived, it had a six point star receiver. I tried to initiate a return which was next to impossible, and never happened. An all around a miserable experience.

Easy Lookup and Fast delivery
The blades were easy to find and arrived fast and well packaged. Be prepared to either have a VERY long handled breaker bar or an Impact Wrench as the nut holding on the old blade can be a challenge. Also a good idea to have vehicle service ramps available as you need to get underneath the mower to access the blades...you may need help on this one.
