My 8 year old Craftsman mower is about dead - I'm ready to buy something
new. I mow a quarter acre of Florida St. Augustine grass every Saturday -
this time of year I chop down 1 to 2 inches a week. I need a self propelled
machine that mulches really well, is easy to maneuver, and will last a few
years. I'm willing to pay a little more fore a top notch mower. I'm only
55 - not old enough for a rider.

Any recommendations?

Greetings,

You can now convert your old mower into a solar powered one by
following these easy steps:

I don't know what to think of this? I was hoping someone here could
decide for me. I guess more options is always a good thing as I don't
have to choose them.

John Deere. I've had a few other brands, but the JD is the best. Still
starts onthe first pull after 6 or 7 years. Came with a bag but I got the
mulcher kit up front.

One recommendation. Just don't buy a Husquenara (however it's spelled). I
bought the $479.00 last year and it is almost unuseable. The automatic
choke constantly sticks shut from dust stirred up from mowing, requiring
irritating disassembly. Most of the screws and bolts have vibrated loose.
The drive mechanism has bound up and required replacing the belt. ETC. ETC.
It's hard to start.
