Ah yes, the grass is turning green as Spring arrives. Along with the house, I have a hilly property that spans nearly three acres filled with trees and shrubs, which is why I lean toward a zero-turn model. For many years my grandfather tended to his property with a trusty Walker zero-turn lawn mower. I've always been partial to the Walker brand mowers; I grew up with them since my father owns one as well. But since Heidi was nearly killed by a well-used Walker mower, our families have been less than enthusiastic about me owning one. Heidi has sweetly given me permission to own a Walker if that's what I truly want, but the controls on a Walker are such that it would be impossible for her to operate the mower single-handedly. Some people say "well that's just fine. Heidi shouldn't be on a lawn mower" but I disagree. Heidi is perfectly capable and extremely competent. Even experienced equipment operators get harmed or killed when safeties are bypassed or disabled; I don't hold Heidi responsible for her accident on the lawn mower. So what lawn mowers do you recommend, my dear readers? There are plenty of contenders out there: Husler, Grasshopper, Gravely, John Deere, Cub Cadet...
Hello, my name is Shawn. I'm looking for a used zero-turn mower and my budget is $3,000 and a roll of toilet paper.
