$2500, 1 Acre, A Hill and Shed Restrictions. What To Look At

[KrashnKraka]

I am done being a part of hijacking this thread. We can continue this somewhere else if you wish. Good luck to the op, and let us know what you went with.

Okeeeey...if I have this wrong I would happily accept a 'slap':confused2:

So... mentioning the Kawa problem on new purchase threads
is going to be read as "highjacking", yeh?
From where I sit this is very important info for new players in changing
out or buying first time. These engines are mounted on any number of
offers. I fail to see why the info should be buried under a highjack tag

I think what he is trying to tell you is he doesn't want to infringe on the OP's subject and he's willing to take it to someplace else like maybe The Front Porch Forum.

Good point. If the op is interested in a stander, or a walk behind with a sulky that would be a good option to help him get what he wants. He should be able to find a used wb for his budget.

Yeah you can get a lot of good deals on CL. people/Commercial guys wanting to sell mowers to upgrade.

Had a mid week death, late week funeral to attend so that put a damper on checking mowers out this weekend. Just took a look at Craigslist and there is a TON of mowers on there for pretty cheap around me.

I saw this which looks enticing even though I'm not super excited about a rider. Bagging system would be nice for leaves come fall time.

I wouldn't settle for a mower I knew I really didn't want. If you get the right machine, mowing your lawn will seem less like work and more like an enjoyable hobby.

OK its been while. Went out and looked at some zero turn mowers, I liked them but not enough to spend the money on one. Plus I ran into an issue where I can fit it in my shed but then I wouldn't be able to get anything else out because of the amount of space it takes up, aka my snow blower which is critical. The tractor mowers seem to fall into this problem as well for me. So what I've been looking at and looking for are larger deck walk alongs or stand behinds. Toro has a 30" Time cutter that seemed pretty nice and Cub Cadet has a 33" Walk behind that was nice as well, from there it seems I get into the commercial mowers and I'm in the 3500 range. I keep trolling Craigslist for a used one but haven't come up with anything yet.

Reviving my old thread.

Never ended up getting a mower last year put it off and continued to push mow away. Now I'm back and I don't really have a shed restriction, getting brand new 60" doors cut into my shed makes me getting just about anything possible.

This also opens up my possibilities for what mower to get, Id like to get something that's good quality residential. Probably looking to spend around 3500 on it now. I still like that Cub Cadet with the Fab deck which I can now fit but I also am interested in which ZTR's I should be looking at around 3500? I've also been looking at used Walk behinds that I can use a Sulky with, tons of used Lesco mowers in my area.
