Been wanting a new mower for a while. I had given one of my old mowers to my grandson and I have been using a Simplicity Broadmoor for quite some time. One day last week the grandsons mower blew up so I gave him my Simplicity. Since my stimulus check had arrived a couple days earlier I decided to jump start the economy and bought a country Clipper. 42", 18 hp joystick control. Since I have spaces of 46"s to squeeze through this was the perfect size. I have a mulching kit ordered. It certainly will mow the yard faster, but since I mow slower when mulching there won't be much difference in time. The wife likes operating this unit since it is basically point and go.
