My Father recently turned 80 years old. For over 50 years he has been using various push mowers to cut his acre of grass on Long Island, NY. I finally convinced him (although he was reluctant) that it was time to purchase a riding mower for his lawn. So, I visited my local Home Depot and received a sound education that’s worth sharing.
First thing is first. Before you get your heart set on a new mower, make sure you know what kind is best for your particular lawn. The size, shape, and topography of your yard will determine the type of mower to buy.
For example, If you live on a substantial property with a large amount of acreage, you will want a riding mower that is designed cut more grass with each pass. Also, if you have several landscaping features to mow around, you will want to consider a zero-turn-radius (ZTR) mower, which can instantly pivot around obstacles.
Regardless of what you need and can afford, Home Depot offers mowers to help you get the job done easier. In general, you want to choose a mower lt to handle the amount of land you are mowing. You’ll also need to consider the engine type, the size of the cutting deck, brand, belts, and features. Trust me; Home Depot employees will answer any questions you may have.
