[net.consumers] Gas mowers, there is no substitute!

I have only two things to say about this discussion of mowers: What do
the pros use ? Briggs and Straton. My cheap little Kmart 3.5 Briggs and
Straton is all anyone needs for under a 1/2 an acre. Any thing else on
a mower beside adjustable wheels is frills.

Be careful...Briggs and Straton is the motor manufacturer and it appears
on a large number of lawn mowers.  I have had both good and very bad
experiences with mowers that had B&S motors on it.  While I have not had
overly bad experiences with the B&S motor (4-stroke), the 2 stroke engine
on my Lawn Boy was perfect.
