Spent $400 on a new John Deere push mower today. Our lawn looks like a war zone right now - my wife finally put her foot down about the overgrown mess. Hopefully this investment means I actually use it instead of letting it sit in the garage. Wish me luck.
Upload a picture when you're done. Love seeing the before and afters of lawn transformations.
Man I remember that feeling of getting a new mower. You're gonna want to tackle that lawn every weekend now. Fair warning lol.
Good choice going with a push mower if you're just starting out. Easier than the riding ones for learning the basics.
Four hundred bucks is actually not bad for a John Deere. Those things last forever if you maintain them. What size yard are you working with?
Wait till your wife sees what it looks like after you get a few passes through. That's the satisfying part. Almost like therapy.

Pro tip: sharpen the blades before you make that first cut on overgrown grass. Makes a huge difference and saves your back too.
