Hi folks,
I'm looking for nay recomendations or warnings anyone may have about a
riding mower. I'm looking for a lawnmower (I don't need tractor or a bunch
of other accessories) with a bagger. i have about 3/4 acre t cut, with some
small hills. I'd ideally like to spend around $1,000 (or less of
course)......

thanks

I agree with Lawrence, buy from a mower dealer if at all possible,
you'll be gald you did if any problems should arise.
As to what mower to buy you really need to go to some dealers and sit
on a few, try them out if possible and ask friends, family and
neighbors if you can "test drive" theirs.
My personal favorite is still the old tried and true Snapper. They cut
very well, they are simple to maintain and (if properly maintained)
last forever. I have two of them (inherited one from the inlaws) the
oldest being a 1981 and they both work perfectly.I mow just over an
acre of lawn.
In the end though my answer is....Do your homework and buy what looks,
smells and feels good to YOU.

Hope this helps
Good Luck
George
