good point and me too. I used more expensive walk behinds unless you are doing acers and acers I didnt get commercial equipment until I had to start wrenching on the box store pro series mower every other night so I could go to work in the morning. The only reason to get better equipment when starting out is a commercial mower will save you time I bought my first one Toro 21" for around $1100 the second was a floor model and I picked it up for around $800 put them on a credit card and payed a ton of interest for them unless you can pay cash or get a yard card or scheffield financing wait as long as you can before you have to start making the big purchase. I mean the end result is stilll the same its still is mowed and i think the cut quallity on some of the cheaper mowers is better than the commercial stuff anly difference is the commercial stuff is designed to do it everyday all day for years. Good luck bud but dont invest untill you have to
