Lawn mowers aren't the lightest toll to a wallet so I would like to get your preference on what is a good lawn mower. What do people usually look for in a lawn mower? What is a good and durable brand? I do not want to go in as an idiot and later regret my purchase. Please help me on my situation.
Answer
Consider how long you want it to last. Some of the pricier mowers will last much longer.
Do you want gas, electric with a cord, electric cordless, or manual?
What features do you want? Mulching, self propelled (many mowers have both of these features), electric start (start it with a key), options to mulch or bag and how do you switch between the two, what type of self propelled, front or rear wheel drive (front is not good if you have a hilly yard)?
What will it cost to maintain it (spark plugs, oil, filters, replacement blades or blade sharpening)?
What mowing width do you want? A 21" is going to require fewer back and forth passes than an 19" but it may not matter in your yard.
For gas I would say Honda is one of the best brands and Toro is good also.
For electric either corded or cordless Black and Decker is good.
For manual you could get either a Scotts or a Brill. They are reel mowers which cut better, the blades need to be sharpened less frequently, but need to be professionally sharpened.
Whatever brand you choose I would make sure that it will cut as high as 3" minimum because for most grasses that is a good height. I would only get a manual if I had a small yard to mow.
After looking over these questions I would suggest you go to a few retailers just to ask questions and see the differences in person, make your decision at home, and then go back and purchase.
I have used gas, electric corded, electric cordless, and manual. I currently have a Black and Decker cordless and have been happy with it for 3 years so far.

Self-propelled vs. traditional push type mowers?
Anthony G
Which of these is the best and most preffered? Give me the pros and cons of these two, thanks!
Answer
A self-propelled mower, properly shopped for is far superior to a push mower in all but the smallest yards.
A hilly uneven terrain calls for a rear whell driven mower to provide the traction. A good one with a 6.5 briggs and stratton or a 5.5 Honda will cost you between $250 and $350 dollars
If you have a flatter lawn, especially one with many obstacles, a more maunverable front wheel driven one is in order. They run from $200-$300.
The advantages of a powered mower is extremely less cutting time, less energy used, and more importantly a more well-groomed and even yard.
