I'm looking for recommendations for used finish mowers. I'm currently using an old KingKutter to mow several acres around my house as well as road frontage and trails. It does a fairly good job, but seems rather flimsy with my less than smooth ground. I'm looking to upgrade, but don't like the prices of new equipment (at my age, I won't be using it for many years.)
Does anyone have any recommendations for specific brands and models? I'm often not mowing under ideal conditions, and am not looking for a perfect lawn---just something that will hold up to rough conditions. In the spring I often mow when the ground is wetter than I like and the grass is higher than I like. My primary lawn area is in a low spot next to a ten acre pond. This time of the year there is frequently a lot of dew on the grass when it is cool enough to mow. I prefer to mow when it is cool rather than waiting for the grass to dry and the temperature to get into the 90's with a swarm of deer and horse flies.
