So are you saying 80 hours or a couple hours a day?
At 1 acre every 45 mins that's a lot of acres.

My honey found this ultimate push mower in the opportunity shop for $20...great for the lawns at home, gives a nice clean cut and delivers a fair (but not excessive) work out at the same time...
 
I repair and tune up push mowers for a living. Push mowers are alivhe and well. I rebuild mowers for landscapers and homeowners. 5 days a week. I will complete around 11 to 15 per day. I have the best job.

Yes, I try to have more than one of many pieces of equipment, just in case. That's why I have two mowers and two trimmers. Definitely in the lawn care business, where if you don't have working equipment, you are not making money. :tractor: = :2cents:
 
I use a push mower all the time, mainly for the trailer park I mow for.

Other than that I use my Craftsman rider. But push mowers are definitely not obsolete.

I don't know if the push mower is obsolete or not :smile: or if it will ever be obsolete but it does have it's uses. You mow a trailer park, well if your parks our like some of ours here in Florida the lot sizes are about to small for even your Craftsman rider so a push mower is about the only way to go to make things look decent. Now they may be out dated for some of the commercial operators and crews because of the String Trimmers used today.
