Question:
I just bought a walk-behind HU800HW mower. Runs fine and I like the design so far, but I need a side discharge chute for it NOW. Husqvarna's advertising says all 3 options - rear bagging, mulching, and side discharge - are included with all WB mowers, but this one has no side discharge capability out of the box (and 'mulching' is a joke, with our thick Spring grass - mower clogs up with clippings in about 15 feet).
I registered my purchase to have a chute sent to me, but now I'm told it'll be a 6-8 week(!) wait to get one! That's unacceptable, and my dealer, as well as Huskie's customer service 800# helpline can't help.
I need to cut grass NOW, and bagging it all in the tiny bagger isn't an option here.
How can I get a side discharge chute in the next few days? I'm willing to buy one at this point, even though I already have a bad taste in my mouth, to be frank, wondering if the Husqvarna brand was a mistake. This is my first experience with the company.
Thanks for anything you can do!
