Question: what is the difference between high wheel and low wheel lawn mowers?
Answer: Standard low-wheel models have the same size wheels (diameter of about 8 inches) on the front and on the rear. High-wheel models, which can cost $20 to $40 more for an otherwise identical mower, have larger wheels (diameters about 9 to 12 inches) on the rear for a smoother motion over bumpy turf.
