Q. First time homeowner and have a big yard to take care of, so I was wondering if you had any recommendations for a small riding lawn mower that's simple to operate, but sturdy? Believe me, if a push one was good enought, I'd be asking about that, but with my hours during "season", I won't have the time, so any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for answering and have a great Sunday!


Answer
One of the most important things to look for in a ride on lawn mower is power. I have often seen people buy the smallest, cutest, cheapest mower only for it to burn out and die sometimes after one season. When you buy a ride on check to see it has enough power to carry you and mow the lawn with ease not just 'enough' power. Having said this you can get too large for your requirements and buy one that is so large it has the turning circle of a semi trailer. I would look at good brands with reputable motors, such as Briggs and Stratton or Honda. Most large brands such as John Deere have a full range of sizes from small to very large. Do your homework with the local dealers and get plenty of advice. Some dealers even offer test drives. Also let them know what type of grass/ height etc you are mowing and the finish you would like - bowling green, park or bush. If you are in Australia Cox or John Deere are good choices. If you are in another county you will have to check out what is available there.

Answer
Mervyn Victor Richardson developed the Victa rotary lawn-mower in August 1952. It was not the first rotary lawn-mower ever developed, but it was cheaper, lighter and easier to use than the mowers that came before.

Mervyn advertised his new mowers and sold them from his home. Demand for the mowers was high with the growth of post-war suburbia. Soon Mervyn had to expand the business to a new location and Victa Mowers Pty Ltd was born.

From the early days Victa effectively used marketing to promote and sell its mowers. It pioneered TV advertising in Australia, using celebrity endorsements and combining them with extensive newspaper and print media campaigns. Victa set up a network of distributors and trained them in promotion and sales.

Within two years of setting up the business, Victa had sold 20 000 mowers and was beginning to export them. The company continued to improve the technology, design and marketing of its products by responding to customers' needs. By 2002, after almost 50 years of operation, 6.5 million Victa mowers had been sold in 30 countries around the world.
