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


Awesome - thansk help all of you - it did look a little daunting to say
the least thinking of pushing a mower up and down with 55cm deck!!!!

Will go for toro zero turn i think - reasonably priced and decent
heritage!

Thanks

I have about the same amount of mowing area and I recently bought the Toro
ZTR - the 50" deck, because of a better seat and armrests - am very happy
with it and it's much better than the JD tractor it replaced. The ZTR is
not good, however, at pulling a garden cart if you want to move things
around, take bags of fertilizer, mulch, clippings, etc., so that's the job
the old JD has been relegated to. The Toro was $3000 less 10% from a local
dealer.
