NEED NEW RIDING MOWER FOR BERMUDA AND ST AUGUSTINE GRASS

RO – posted 10 April 2004 07:05

I need a new riding mower that I can use for both Bermuda and St Augusting grass. I know I’m talking about two totally different types for grass but I’m a home owner and don’t want two different types of mowers. I have 1 acre of Bermuda and 1 acre of St Augustine both on a slight hill. Please be specific on size and type of mowers I know there is Toro and John Deer but I would like you to recommend a manufacturer, size and if possible a model of mower that you think will best meet my needs.

Thanks,

Rick

i would head toward the commercial models, for durability,etc. the john deere’s,etc. won’t last. try the commercial toros, scag, exmark,etc. and you’ll find a quality mower- if you really want to spend some bucks, get a Walker brand mower- really great product. also, remember if you’re going for quality you may want a bagging unit. additionally, the smaller deck sizes will also give you a more quality cut.
