A single blade unit will give a better cut. Especially when you get extreme blade wear.. you may see striping.
One thing though.. single blade limits your cut width.
If you are looking for economy.. I recomend a murray. I have one. I've had it for almost 7 years. It gets annual oil changes.. sparkplugs and air filter cleanings. Perhaps a blade set every couple years. I think I aired the tires a few times.. and had to adjust the blade engage spring once.. and the deck height a couple times... It's on it's second battery. I paid 700$ for the mower. It runs as good now as the day i bought it. I got alot of ridicule from the guys at work that have the huskie, jd and cub mowers. All i can say is that so far.. all our mowers are running great.. and I have paind at minimum, 1/2 what they did, and in some cases a third, and in one case, a quarter. I'm feling happy right now.
