    Push or self propelled mower

    Do they actually make a walk behind mower that isn’t all plastic junk? Good wheels and tires and easy to use. I have worn out two Huskies. One with a Honda engine but the frame,wheels and tires are gone. Belts come off or break. Something every time I mow. I use it around our cabins. Have a Bad Boy for the other 3 acres.

    Have had axToro for years. Pretty good mower. Just sharpened the blade the other day. Most Ace hardware stores carry Torro.

    see if you can find a nice used John Deere JX75. I have one, but I may give it to my mom,, if she wants it.

    I have a 60v toro with the aluminum deck. It’s pretty rock solid. Obviously only been around a couple years but I like it so far

    I have a Honda self-propelled that I've had for at least five years and have yet to have any issues with it. I know some people hate the self-propel mechanism since you basically use your thumbs to push on two paddles, but I've never had an issue with it. My neighbor has a Toro self-propelled that he's been very happy with as well.

    If you could find one of these you would both self propelled and a regular push mower.

    There's lots of decaffeinated brands that are just as tasty as the real thing.

    I have a Johnsered with a Honda motor and it's been bulletproof for the six years I have had it.

    That is something like what I need. I have not seen anything like it for sale around here. I need something with taller back tires. Prefer pneumatic if available.

    There was another company making mowers that looked almost exactly like the Yazoo mowers but I can't remember the name of them. Looked very similar except for the deck shape.
    They were cutting machines, couldn't hardly stop them.
