I want (not necessarily need) a new push mower. I've got a riding mower to handle the big part of the yard (about an acre) but like to use a push mower on the front because it looks so much better.
There is one fairly steep bank so a self-propelled would really help. I also would like to occasionally use a grass catcher to keep things neat.
I have a self-propelled Honda that was/is a great mower but it has been in the shop forever and the self-propulsion is very poorly designed in my opinion. Belt continuously jumps off the blade pulley and I am constantly having to turn the mower up on its side and fight with getting the belt back on the pulley which ends up dumping oil into the exhaust. I guess the only good thing is that when I crank it after fixing the belt it closely resembles the smoke screen that 007 has on his Aston Martin :D
Any suggestions?
