Hello looking to purchase a new self propelled mower from Home Depot.
I narrowed it down to 3 options. I have close to an acre of mostly flat land in central Nj. Don’t have the $2-4k for a ride on tractor or interest of purchasing a used one.
Are these Dewalts really that bad? They have absolutely terrible reviews on Homedepot.com these Dewalts are essentially Craftsman, or Troy Bilts painted yellow, they are all manufactured from the same company MTD products.
I do like the Echo I just keep reading the engagement for the self propelled mechanism is awkward.
Checked out Lowes, I really like the Toro mowers, but I absolutely cannot stand the fact you have to register the product and wait for the rear discharge chute, or even the fact that a rear discharge was considered better than a true side discharge.
Dewalt 196cc 21” DW12ABP3RJ039 $549
Dewalt 163cc 21” 12AVP2R3739 $449
ECHO LM-2119SP $549
Let me know what you guys think.

First time on the ice in 10 years, I hit up the public session 10am-12pm it was great!! Felt so good to be back

Thanks to those who helped me out in a previous post.
I ended up with Bauer Supreme M30s !
I found a Pure Hockey that had multiple ones in stock, my foot was scanned. Skates were baked and sharpened, hitting the ice on Monday morning! I absolutely would have ordered the wrong size and fit.

Hello, I’m new here, 36M
I used to skate at least once or twice a week, I haven’t been out in like 9-10 years, my last go out on the ice I used rental skates and did just fine it was like riding bike. I’m currently looking to get back out on the ice again but with my own skates. I’m looking at a few skate options as I’m just trying to recreationally skate and teach my daughter how to skate.
I’m just looking for anyone who has experience with these few skates I found, there are a few skate shops by me within a reasonable driving distance but no one had any of these in stock so I’d unfortunately be buying before trying them on(from Bauer), I know that’s frowned upon but I don’t really have another option. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
