Smallest gas pushmower

Newblue · Apr 5, 2006

My wife does the trimming around trees and other items in our yard. She now uses a 6hp B&S 22" cut MTD but this pusher is a little large for her. I would like to know if there are smaller, lighter push mowers available that I could buy. A freind of mine has a Cub Cadet 3.5 hp 18" cut that I like but it looks like Cub doesn't make this model any more. I thank you advance for any help.

Newblue, I used to have an aluminum decked craftsman push mower 3.5 hp , It was very light .

I did a search on aluminum mowers and saw Toro & JD have an aluminum option John Deere mower

Here's a link to one that appears to be the lightest one currently available: Ultralite mower

Why not just get her a self-propelled lawn mower. They work very well.

Sorry I cant help out by try gardenweb.com under lawnmowers. The guys in that forum know everything about walk behind lawnmowers.

Thank you for your responses. The flying mower posted above is pretty funny.
SWB - The constant back and forth motion of trimming around trees and other items on four acres would eliminate the possibility of getting a self propelled one.
