Lawn and Garden Bags

It's summer -- and the green grass grows!

Has it occured to you that the diameter of the lawn and garden bags are smaller than the some of the common lawn mower bags? Why? Why?

This is where some standardization could help. I hope either:
  1. Lawn mower companies notice this and make their bags smaller. I really doubt consumers will like this step. Who would want to keep emptying a smaller bag each time? Bigger is better.
  2. Which leaves us to the manufacturers of the lawn and garden bags. And there are MANY! I think if a few recognize this problem, and advertise that they have thought of this, and that their bags are "convinient to use", I would buy them even if they costed a dollar more.
  3. Also, can we increase the weight of the paper that is used as the base of the bag? Make it stable.
  4. Can we provide a stronger "rim" to the mouth of the bag, so that it doesn't crumble when I try to empty the contents from my lawn mower bag?
  5. Finally: what's up with the height?? Can the lawn and garden bags be shorter - and may be wider?
Until then, I will continue with my mowing and tussle between the lawn mower bag and the lawn/garden bag.
