Huge mower made a big difference!
This is a HUGEEE mower. I can honestly say that there is nothing about it that would keep me from recommending it. This thing does its job and it does it WELL. If you have a half acre to mow or less, you're done in what? 10 minutes? Anything over that and you might be mowing for half an hour... it is definitely worth the cost to buy and maintain this work horse. It is amazing to me how wide the cut is- at 54" you swipe over a yard like twice and voila! Done with the yard work! I personally mow my yard at about 1 acre and my parents' yard at around another 1.5 acres in less than 2 hours and that ain't too bad for me. It allows me to get up close to trees and such while still maintaining a wide cut path. The blades have stayed sharp and the mechanical aspect of the engine couldn't be any better. I personally clean mine after every use and store it in my basement which I believe is the secret to a well-kept mower. Storing one in the basement or a building over keeping it outside must double the life expectancy at least. This is definitely a mower for a serious mower. ;)
