Snapper

Snapper

 

 

Snapper, Inc. Was a United States company, formerly based in McDonough, Georgia, that manufactured residential and professional lawn-care and snow-removal equipment. Snapper was known for its high-quality red "rear-engine" riding lawnmowers (as seen in the movie ‘Forrest Gump’) and for its invention of the first self-propelled rotary lawn mower.

In the 1940s it was acquired by William Raymond Smith. Smith recognized a need for lawn mowers and patented a mowing blade.  With this, he created the "Snappin' Turtle," named so for the way it snapped the grass and for its turtle figurine on the top front of the first model.

Producing an assortment of lawn-care tools, Snapper, Inc. had facilities in two States. In 2002, Snapper was acquired by Simplicity Manufacturing which was subsequently acquired by Briggs & Stratton in 2004.

Deutscher Outdoor Power Equipment can service and supply parts for Snapper mowers.
