List prices are the manufacturer’s published figures, re-checked daily; they exclude tax, freight and dealer setup.
A side-by-side reference of each model's stated specifications. MowerFacts doesn’t give opinions: where a published, spec-derived rule can separate machines we mark a Data Pick and show the rule; here, read the values and decide what fits your needs.

What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- WB700 Walk-Behind Mower has Flexible Molded Polymer discharge; PRO-WALK 36 KAWASAKI has Side discharge.
- WB700 Walk-Behind Mower has a published top speed of 6.5 mph; PRO-WALK 36 KAWASAKI has a published top speed of 8 mph, a 1.5 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
- WB700 Walk-Behind Mower holds 5 gal (18.9 L) of fuel; PRO-WALK 36 KAWASAKI holds 5.8 gal (22 L) of fuel, a 0.8 gal difference. Tank size bounds how long a machine runs between stops. Consumption varies with engine, load and speed, so hours per tank are not fixed.
- WB700 Walk-Behind Mower weighs 773 lbs (350.6 kg); PRO-WALK 36 KAWASAKI weighs 702 lbs (318.2 kg), a 71 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What WB700 Walk-Behind Mower's weight means for a trailer ›
- WB700 Walk-Behind Mower cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 4.5 in (114 mm); PRO-WALK 36 KAWASAKI cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 5 in (127 mm). The cut-height range is the shortest and tallest cut the deck offers. Most lawns are kept well inside it.
