Been revamping the side of the house where the clothes line lives. Lawn didn't like to grow too well so ripped it all out and have been prepping it for compacting on crushed limestone.

A few cooler days and some rain = sir Walter buffalo shoots popping up everywhere.

Won't grow when I want it to and won't f-off now I don't!

4 stroke is the way to go, little four strokes are leaps and bounds ahead of what they used to be

Easy to start, quiet, long lasting

I can't recommend anything good as I have $200 supercheap chit special that's has done me no harm and cuts the grass fine

So I imagine brand name mower would be pretty great

Front lawn is winter green. I do nothing I repeat nothing to it and it's always green and grows well.

Backyard is expensive roll on sir walter "soft leaf" buffalo. It's horrible scratchy,patchy and so fricking delicate im over it. I've considering over seeding it with winter green more than once...

My lil bro works at bunnings panda and they have had quite a few of those subaru engined ryobi's back with dead engines. I was in the same situation as you(my trusty old victa 2 stroke had enough) and he warned me off them.

Grabbed a 4 stroke victa, starts first time with very minimal effort and just plows through the thick stuff without bogging down like the 2 stroke. Alot quieter too.
