In an attempt to keep my payroll low, my wife helps me mow some days but she is afraid of all of my small walk behinds. So, I am looking for some professional reviews on 26 to 30 inch mowers. I need something that operates like a standard push mower in a wider size. I know toro has a 30 inch and so does exmark but all the reviews I can are speculation. It doesn't seem like anyone is actually using them. Anybody out there have any recommendations?
