What should I look for in a lawn mower?

I am needing to buy my first lawn mower, can anyone please tell me what I need to look for? I'd like a decent quality, but I don't need anything super-fancy, I would like it to be self-propelled of course, but other than that...


Answer
Self propelled, as you mentioned, is a big thing with me. Also, the horsepower of the engine. I wouldn't buy anything less than a 4.5 hp, and prefer at least a 6.5. I have had best luck with mowers having Briggs & Stratton engines. Also, the larger the swath of the mower, the less trips around the yard you have to make. Buy at least a 22-24 in. mower. If you have a yard on a slope, or an uneven yard, mowers with larger rear wheels may be better suited to your needs.

Good luck!

How fast could you make a lawn mower go and have it the blade still cut grass ?

Like if you were to trick out like a racing lawn mower but not to that extent


Answer
If you make sure that you increase the blade speed along with the drive speed and use stronger, higher quality mowing blades it's possible to trick it out and actually have it mow decently.

You just don't want to increase the drive speed and have the deck speed stock or what you mow will like sh*t. Take my advice about the blades though, I have a friend that hopped up his mower but lost a stock blade and nearly killed a friend when the blade broke!

Have fun but be safe. Peace!
