I personally like the entry level red model with it's two bladed disc. I theorise that the smaller carrier (and bar blades) leave more room for clumps of grass and any other debris to move under the base without bogging up the motor and blade disc. My neighbour's newish Victa has a similar scrawny blade holder and it did a pretty mean job of sucking up a heavy carpet of leaves from the lawn, much better than expected.
I'm tempted to try the smaller disc with a powertorque mower.
Back to the a Masport, the only thing I'd like to change is to have ball bearing wheels fitted.
