Model yt3000/28922, 42", auto tranny, B&S 21 HP. Some research online

weekend for $1299, which sales droid was NOT aware of.

I find writing 4-digit checks physically painful, but I am also finding
3.5 hours per week behind a push mower physically painful to my
allergies, sinuses, and hives. Thinking that perhaps cutting that
exposure time would reduce my allergy problems, I am tempted to splurge.
Looking for honest opinions about the current sears mowers of this

You might want to ask about the horsepower rating if that part is
important to you. Some lawnmowers aren't what they claim to be. There
was a class action lawsuit over it. My brother is one of those who gets a
few $$ back because of it. This is the first link that popped up about
it: http://tinyurl.com/29olzff
