The TB260 XP [self-propelled mower](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lopkin) and the TB170 XP push mower both boast SpaceSavr storage, so that a folding handle can be used to help store the mowers horizontally or upright—perhaps even under a tool bench or in another tight space. On top of boasting space-saving features, the designs also include other handy features like deck wash adaptors to help with [simplifying household chores](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/turbox-series) and reducing the need to bring specialized tools into the home.
