best lawn tractor hills image

I recently purchased a home with approximately 9 acres of cleared land. There are two fairly steep areas, strenuous to walk up, but still grassy. Is a 60 inch cutting deck sufficient?
Answer
Yes. 60 inches is okay for that. DO you want a zero turn mower or a walk behind? The zero turn will be hard to run on the hills and may be unsafe. The walk behind is safer on the hills and may need a sulky to ride on as walking behind that is long. 60 inches should be able to mow that in a few hours. A 72 inch mower can do an acre in 15 minutes. 60 inches maybe 20 minutes an acre. How much time do you have on your hands? Plus all of these mowers will be in the 8-9000 dollar range....

What type of Lawnmower should I get?
James
So im clueless when it comes to lawnmowers and I need help on which type is best for my yard.
Right now my yard is HUGE. Its big, it has rocks on some parts with grass over it, it has a slope, and a swing set on it. And to make it worse, I have an ancient lawn mower, its big, heavy and has starting up problems. Its also torture when I have to go around and around the swing set trying to get all the grass from it. And that mini hill on my backyard makes it even harder.
So Im planning to get a lawnmower that fights my lawn the most, Ive went on amazon and looked at reviews but haven't found anything very useful in terms of my particular yard.
Im looking for a cheap, and light lawn mower (any lawn mowers probably lighter than the one I have)
This one looks really good:

but should I get more a lawn mower more like this one:?

any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated =)

I got an electric and had it for years. I remember the reel mower (and that is the light flimsy model). When the neck is2x3 wood, everything else is heavy duty steel. Probably the weight of two of the red mowers.
So, don't cut as often. Like let the grass grow over 2 inches in height and then cut it so it is 2" high. I cut maybe 8 times a season. And it stays green because the soil does not dry out quickly because the grass shades the ground.
If you need to work on your thighs, belly and knees...you go for the red one
If you are skinny then either will do
If you are a lazy good for nothing then get a riding tractor mower.
