So got burned on 2 used mowers. First not really a scam, it just was a really old 2 stroke and kinda was giving up the ghost by year 2. Pretty anemic, was good if it was an old man (lightweight) mowing just a tiny yard. 2nd one died on 2nd mow and blew up lost compression. I bet if I open it up has some RTV sealant or some shit on it, fucking paki or whatever he was.
In my case, have a 60" zero turn for most of the property, but I have a maybe 75 foot ditch in front of my fence along the road way that is too steep and the zero turn gouges the shit out of it getting semi stuck trying to turn or escape it, as well as a number of smaller shrubs around the house and things like that a smaller push mower would be better for getting into. If it was soley the house I'd just use the string trimmer as much as I loathe them fighting the auto dispense and constantly replacing because I eat it up quick trying to do my fence lines in some areas.
Lowes had some house brand garbage and 2 driven Toro recyclers. I was under impression toro might have gone to shit, and being in a big box store doesn't help. $4 fucking 50 to boot. Then a huge line of electric mowers. I dont really trust them, but then again I do have a fairly small use. Battery of course, no wired. Any experience with them, or stick to gas? I'd love something that took straight gas as I prefer oil changes to mixing fuel.
