I just purchased my first house and I need a lawn mower. I'm looking for a
model for under $250.

I saw a Ryobi for $199 at Costco and Yard Machines brand at Home Depot for
$199. Are these brands any good?

No. But anything for $250 won't be any good. You get what you pay for.

This isn't meant to be a sarcastic flame -- but a suggestion to look for a
name brand and pay a little more. Unless you don't mind throwing it out in
3-5 years.
