My mower bit the dust towards the end of last mowing season, I ended up just paying someone to do the last 2 mows rather than buying one at the end of the season.
I've read some articles and reviews and these 2 are well reviewed in terms of low cost mowers.

Is the Toro $100 better than the Yardmax?
If you were in the market for a sub $500 mower, what would you get?
I am really struggling to decide between the Toro Super Recycler and the comparable Honda HRX217, both priced around $799.
I am a big Honda car guy and rarely have any issues with them. However, I have a very old Toro Super Recycler given to me used that has been great for me, but it has seen its end after two decades of use.
I am curious if any of you have one of these two mowers and can give some feedback please. Thanks in advance!

Going to start mowing lawns as a 1 man operation. Obviously on a budget. Wondering what the best lawn mower would be for under $150. Ideally no gas, and would have a catch basket for clippings.
I am closing on my first house this week and am looking to buy a gas push mower for a relatively flat 9k sq ft yard. I am definitely on a budget, wouldn’t want to spend more than $400 on a mower and would like to spend less if it makes sense. I do not need it to be self-propelled. I see 3 general options:
Buy a new, higher quality mower like a Toro (usually $340+)
Buy a new, cheaper mower like a Power Smart or Senix (closer to $220 on Walmart). Most of these options seem to have mixed reviews online.
Find a used mower on Facebook Marketplace for $50-$150 that seems to run fine.
Given that minimizing costs in the short-term is a high priority, does anyone have advice on what route would be the best investment/decision? Is there a specific push mower that fits my criteria that you would recommend? Thank you in advance.
