Product Details

This isn't just any walk-behind mower. The Super Recycler is what other mowers aspire to be. Leveraging time-tested Toro engineering, the Super Recycler delivers the perfect cut every time, while nourishing your lawn to provide a rich, green cut that landscape pros relish. Fertilize your lawn while you mow with Toro's Super Recycler Cutting System. With top-of-the line samurai sword sharpness and stiffened blades combined with under-deck wedges that shave down clippings into an ultra-fine mulch, adding nutrients, Lawn Vitamins, back into your lawn. Married with Vortex Technology and the commercial-grade Bagging Tunnel, Toro has enhanced the process of moving clippings around sending them further back into the mulching bag so you empty less often. Simply put, it's the perfect expression of lawn mowing mulching or bagging. A mower's dream.
  • Conveniently step away from the mower to remove sticks, toys and debris without having to restart the engine each time with Blade SpinStop technology, everything you need to keep you moving and mowing
  • Through time-tested engineering, the Super Recycler delivers commercial-grade reliability with construction that the pros demand; including a cast aluminum deck that is built to last, ball bearing wheels that reduce friction and extends the life of your machine, plus an ultra-smooth mowing experience - it's like you're floating above the lawn, quite literally, it's ready for anything.
  • Next level mowing. With top-of-the line samurai sword sharpness and stiffened blades combined with under-deck wedges that shave down clippings into an ultra-fine mulch, adding nutrients, Lawn Vitamins, back into your lawn.

  • Supercharge your mow with the power of Vortex Technology. Like having an EF 5 tornado under the commercial grade cast aluminum deck, the technology pulls more air into the cutting chamber, creating greater airflow and time for the blades to mince grass into ultra-fine bits that are then driven back into your lawn to feed as Lawn Vitamins, transforming your lawn into green perfection. Once you go vortex, you'll never go back.

  • Fully fill and empty less often, collect more rich, green goodness with Toro's super bagger, equipped with vortex technology, more air injected into the cutting chamber minces grass clippings until ultra-fine, plus with a commercial-grade bagging tunnel, grass clippings are blown further into the super bagger, allowing clippings to collect from the back of the bag, ensuring you are fully filling the bag and emptying less often

Q:how many horsepower does the 163cc engine displacement equate to?
by|Nov 2, 2023
1 Answer
Answer This Question

A:  Hi, Bill! Thanks for your question. We currently use CC (cubic centimeters) instead of horsepower (HP) to measure the force a given engine has. This unit #21563, is equipped with a 7.25 ft-lb Briggs & Stratton EXi 163 cc with Blade Stop engine. That said, converting this unit's CC to HP would put it at about 10.8 HP. For any additional questions, please feel free to contact Toro Customer Support at 1-888-384-9939. Hours are Monday – Friday 8:00am-4:30pm CST. Thanks!

    Q:What does super recycler mean? And what makes this mower so special priced at $960? A 30” mower is just a little more?

    A:  Hi, Brent! Thanks for your question. The Super Recycler delivers commercial-grade reliability, including commercial construction cast-aluminum deck, ball bearing wheels that reduce friction and extend the life of your machine, plus an ultra-smooth mowing experience. Equipped with Toro's Super Recycler® Cutting System and Vortex Technology, more air is injected into the cutting chamber to mince grass clippings until ultra-fine; plus with a commercial-grade Bagging Tunnel, grass clippings are blown further into the Super Bagger, allowing clippings to collect from the back of the bag, ensuring you are fully filling the bag and emptying less often. For more information on pricing, we would recommend connecting with your local store, or please feel free to contact The Home Depot customer service department at 800-430-3376 any day between 6 a.m. and 2 p.m. EST.

        Q:Can anyone easily explain the difference between this model (21563) and the 21565? I did a product comparison side-by-side, and can't really tell, except for the mower weight. Both specify 7.25 lbs. of torque in the side-by-side description. More power?

        Answer This Question

        A:  Hi, Hank! Thanks for your question. The biggest difference is that unit 21563 comes equipped with our Blade Spin Stop feature, whereas unit 21565 does not. Thanks!

          Great mulcher with extras
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mower mulches and bags very well, the spin stop is great so you dont have to restart the mower when emptying the bag or moving sticks! I love the aluminum deck. Personal pace was a learning curve, but 4 mows later and i like it! Black coated deck and mower does collect dirt and dust more easily, but a quick wash cleans it right up.

          Wheel Fell Off....TWICE!!!!!
          I am only on the second season with this lawn mower, toro 21563. I purchased it from Home Depot online on 04/02/2022. About three weeks ago, the right rear wheel fell off. The bolt that holds the wheel on was sheared off, with the threaded portion still in the hole that it screws into. I took it to Weingartz for service. They were great and repaired it without cost. Replaced bolt and geared wheel. I brought the mower home, and the VERY next mowing, the LEFT rear wheel fell off with a sheared bolt, exactly the same way as the first time, only the other wheel. I bought this mower because it has blade stop technology so you don't have to restart the mower every time you empty the bag. It would be nice if I could actually use it. Now my mower will be tied up for three more weeks. Not happy at all considering I paid 900.00 plus tax for a residential push mower and I only use it to cut a less that 1/4 acre (78 feet by 112 feet) residential lot. NOT HAPPY

            Toro recycler w/blade stop
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this mower to replace my +10 year old toro recycler pro. New model seems to have lighter weight. Handle position is slightly higher and hand grip is more comfortable. Starts easily on first pull and runs well with good fuel efficiency. Cutting performance is very good, power drive makes mowing almost effortless. - one star.... Packaging was not the best, noting the handle bar was not secured in the box well, causing concealed shipping damages to the handle bar, hand grip and handle locks. +4 stars... This model has the blade stop that allows the operator to let go of the handle without shutting down the engine.

            Don’t Waste Your Money
            Purchased Spring of 22 online from Home Depot. Mower was used for approximately 5 hours this mowing season. First issue is bagging system. Bag is only allowed to fill half way and then the chute starts to plug. Rear wheels assembly that holds the bearing in is made of plastic and both left and right sides are cracked and are currently being held together with hose clamps so rear tires wont fall off. Mower has no adjustable throttle so engine is very under powered.

            Response from ToroNov 28, 2022
            Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry your experience with the 21" Personal Pace Spin-Stop Super Recycler Mower has not been the best. We recommend checking the grass bag frequently and emptying to prevent dragging and wear on the grass bag. Keep the underside of the mower clean. One way is to spray the underside with a garden hose. Wet grass and leaves tend to clump and cause the machine to plug and the engine to stall. We recommend avoid cutting in wet conditions. If your machine is cracked we recommend visiting an authorized service dealer to provide a physical inspection on your machine. Your machine has a 5-year warranty that protects against manufacturer defects. An authorized service dealer would be happy to provide a physical inspection to repair/replace if necessary. Locate a dealer at Toro.com/locator. To view your machines complete warranty, visit Toro.com/parts. Toro

              Oil leak in brand new mower.
              Oil leaking from front of engine-cover/head gasket. Tightening the bolts, replacing the cover/gasket have not fixed the leak. Additional parts have been ordered and it remains to be seen if the leak is fixable. This is evidently a known issue.

              It’s a nice cut quality. BUT….
              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second super recycler. My last one was 18 years old. Still ran great with absolutely zero service other than plugs blades oil changes and air filters. Now to the new mower. The cut quality of the new vortex machine is superb. The vibration handle is definitely an upgrade. What I dislike about this mower. It burns so much oil. I literally have to top it off every mow. The oil isn't smoking out of the engine but it’s low every time I use it. Not sure where it’s going and it doesn’t seem right. The way the bag attaches seems flimsy like the pins that hang on the frame are shorter than the should be. It doesn’t back up easily almost like the transmission is still trying to go forward. The mowing height adjustment is terrible to figure out compared to the old model I had. I think it cuts very well. The oil consumption and ability to easily reverse the machine make me question its longevity which is sad for such an expensive machine.
              by
                Takes 4-6 pulls to start, has stalled when engaging the blades. Very powerful cutting and vacuuming.
                by
                  I have only had it a couple months, but so far am happy with it. Much lighter than my prior Honda.
