What is a high quality, reliable lawn mower?

best rear wheel drive lawn mower image

I have just over half an acre and it's all hill. It's too steep in the back for a riding mower, so I have to use a walk-behind. I had a Troy-bilt mower with a Briggs Straton engine, and it sucked. I've only had it for 2 years and the transmission already went out. In addition, the drive wheels (rear wheel drive) keep getting stripped and falling off. Can you recommend a better brand? Some thing that will last for years?

Thanks.

Answer
Snapper is the best I have worked with. Long lasting and great motors. Keep the blade sharp.

What will increase the traction on my lawn mower drive plate/drive wheel connection?

The Butche

I have rear engine Snapper riding lawn mower and had got grease or oil on my drive plate. I cleaned it off with gasoline really good but the drive disk/wheel still seems to be losing traction when I go in reverse or up a hill. What can I clean the drive plate with to increase the drive disk to drive plate traction?
