The negatives of a mid-mount depend on what other uses you have for the tracotr. Loaders & mid-mount mowers do _not_ like each other. The mid mounts are more work to mount/ dismount and do not lift up out of the way very well for other tractor work. If the main chore of the tractor is lawn mowing, then mid-mount is superior to the other types. It is more manuverable & easier to see what you are doing. A 3-point is great because it is easy to mount/ dismount, no belts to fuss with. But when you turn left, it moves right a bit first, and it's behind you so harder to see, harder to manuver, easier to bump into things. A trailer-type would be very easy to mount/ dismount. However, backing up & manuverablity would be really poor. You need some way to lift it, usually hydaulics. Semi-mount (the 2-point configuration you mention) will work fine, but will be specific to each tractor & may be more trouble to mount/ dismount, and also requires some type of lifting mech, probably hydraulics. More money, because you need to adapt it all to your tractor. If all you are doing is mowing lawns, go mid-mount! Otherwise, the 3-point addition is expensive but opens a whole world of other implements for your tractor. I'd look at those 2 options first. --->Paul
