Hi

First time user and sure this has been asked a lot! Apologies

I am buying a new house with approx 0.65 acre of lawned area - what do i
buy - a zero turn mower or a normal 55cm deck lawn mower?

How long will it take to push mow as opposed to 'ride on' - i havent got
a clue so apologies if ridiculous question!!

thanks

I have a 1 acre plot. With all the footprints; house, driveway, walkway,
2 12'x16' sheds, and a 18' x 36' inground pool with sidewalks all
around, I probably have 3/4 of an acre of grass to mow. I wouldn't want
to mow it with a push or self propelled mower now. I did mow it with a
push mower before I bought a tractor back in 1985. I am on my second 46"
garden tractor to do the job and it takes about an hour or so, depending
upon how many times I stop to have a beer.
