Looking for a mower that is capable of mowing 3 acareas. We do have slope but nothing that is going to make a mower tip no matter what direction you mow Budget is playiong a part in making a choice. Deck size is not too important but would play a part in pricing. I want to do my own work on what ever I buy to save money in operating cost. Been looking at mowers at lowes But some of them look cheap made. Let me know what you have and what it has been like to own it. Not sure what to buy with all the foreign made parts out there. Dependibility is very important Thanks
