best lawn mower 3 acres image

I am looking to purchase a new Self Propelled Lawn Mower for my husband; we live on 1/3 acre and I just want to help cut down on his cutting time but also get him a good mower. Any suggestions would be appreciated I am considering either a Toro or John Deere.

Answer
If you can afford it, the newer Honda mowers are amazing. $400 for the mid range though. Worth every penny though.

What brand and model of 2008 or 2009 riding lawn mower is the most dependable for mowing a large yard?

Can you recommend a brand and model of a riding lawn mower that is safe, dependable and has a smooth ride. We have a large yard (2 acres) and my husband has had a back injury.

We have a tractor but need a riding lawn mower to cut grass around the house. Which tractor will hold up with heavy use and be comfortable to operate.

Answer
According to the first link below, the John Deere X304 is the best lawn tractor overall.

Second link is price...seems pretty typical though this particular model isn't at Lowe's. Didn't look at Home Depot.

We got an old, second hand Craftsman from a customer. That rider was used on MANY big lawns while hubby had his lawn maintenance business. It was used for 5-6 years before it quit. I wish it was still working!

Speaking only for myself, I'd look into a Craftsman. I'm not fond of Sears, but I loved riding it and miss her sorely as we now have 3 acres!
