    Friends,
    I need some help. I have to invest in a new lawn mower for my home because my Craftsman mower has rotted away, literally. I've searched message boards and found many opinions, good and bad on every type of mower imaginable so I'm somewhat confused at this point. What is the best brand of lawn mowers and which brands do you all possess? Ive heard many good things about Honda's and John Deeres, are there other good brands with very little problems? If Im going to spend over $150 for a mower, I may as well invest in a Honda or JDeere, don't you think? Please reply to this post if you want to.

    Well I have a Sears and am happy with it. Over the years I have tried different makers and it all comes down to this for me: 6+ horsepower. The bigger the better. I am using a 6.45 hp now. Get power assist so you don't have to push (much).

    Large bag is a plus but more power is "more" important.
