Worked perfect for my 2006 Husqvarna
Perfect replacement -- cheaper than genuine Briggs part. Tricky to get that rear bolt in, but now she runs and starts like a top!

Works good.
Fit and worked. Gear is too soft and did not last very long.

Perfect fit, good price.
For the amateur, like me,When you take it off remember the holes, it's tight in there. Universal joint ratchet and extension will help (in and out). Count your number of teeth, mark one then count. Now you need to measure the length of the motor. Basically there is a short and a long. Before you order get a starter solenoid too. If the motor is bad the starter usually is too, if not the cause. I wasted two weeks by "thinking". Just get it now. I also suggest a battery cutoff added to your dash. Any freaky power drain is isolated easily and its added security if your overzealous neighbor decides to mow for you.Have fun with your baby.

2 months after install and it’s working fine.
Exactly the same as old part. Easy to install, worked the first time.

A great item works great and easy to install. Only thing is too expensive!

Awesome starter
Replaced starter and engine started on the first try. The starter fitted great, my issue was removing old starter and installing the new one. Must have at least a 2 to 4” 3/8 T40 star bit sock. Not enough room and slightly angled when unscrewing or screwing the right bolt.

Exactly what was needed
They put a lot of care into pointing out that this item would fit specifically for the mower I have. I'm glad they did that because it helped me choose the right one. I so far do not have a concern with the plastic teeth and my mower starts right up now!

UPDATE - failed less than 1 year - Works Great, Gear is plastic but it works fine
Had installed for less than a year, it failed already.Original review below-----It's a perfect replacement for 21hp briggs, single cylinder - mower fires right up after replacement.The gear that engages the flywheel is plastic, not metal like the one it is replacing as others have said - but can't really knock it for that since it seems to work perfectly fine.It actually seems like the engine turns over much faster and quieter than the old starter - though that one was on the way out so that may be why.
