is it self-propelled?

Firstly, I love this machine. Bailed me out of many feet of both wet and light snow. Yes it propels itself as the rubber blade rotates and, in making contact with the concrete, pulls the machine forward. Good for blacktop and concrete, NOT for gravel as the height is not adjustable. It's meant to be propelled by the blade contacting the ground and gravel would chew the mechanism up and spit the rocks out. Hope it helps.

Hi Kathy, I bought it end of season this past winter. It is still in the box. Very thankful I did not have to open it... lol sorry I cannot answer your question.

"Durable steel deck" per description on Amazon. You can use it without self propelled feature just by not pushing the control bar. It is not too heavy. All you do is adjust the speed with your thumb on the bar.

It is not self propelled, but one can purchase self propelled at a higher price.

No this is NOT self-propelled, but it does an excellent job of getting the animal hair.

Is this propelled in the same way a plasma car is? Gyrating motion moves it forward?

No. It's not self propelled but it requires little effort to use. If you've ever used a Rug Doctor you're in for a pleasant surprise. This is pretty much like using a vacuum.

Yes. It is small & light. By using hands on wheels, it is easy to move it without someone pushing.

It is not motorized. However it turns easily and by turning it yourself you can maintain good control for best results.

It is not. HOWEVER, the detaching action gently propels it forward. It is simple physics. You will like it. By the same physics, it dethatches nicely in the forward direction... if you drag it backwards it might dig-in a little... so just do a turn and continue.

In the lower suction setting, not really. In the higher suction setting it seems to 'float' on the carpet. Self propelled? It depends on your definition. It is an awesome vacuum!

No, it's not self-propelled, but it is really light and I've never had a problem mowing my front lawn, which is about a 25-30 degree angle.

It moves under its own power. We love ours...My husband has actually used it less than me. It is easy or else I wouldn't have the strength to use it. For the price, I thought it would be a good buy...after using it on our garden this year, I think it was a great buy.

It is not motorized. It operates under your power. It is a very sturdy machine and I like it.

I don't believe this was motorized. I bought it for my grandson and mailed it to him so I really don't know.
