Been tossing up getting a ride on mower for a while and would appreciate any insights as to decent brands/models.
My block is about 900m2 but I have a grass reserve out the back and a neighbour and I normally take turns to keep it as under control as possible to reduce any fire hazards and to deter snakes. He has a ride-on and I've been doing what I can with my push mower but I'm starting to get a bit jack of that.
Budget will probably be reasonably restrained, around the $1500-$2500 mark if at all possible (but could be tempted to go up to $3k for a good machine) and yes I realise this is well and truly in second-hand territory.
Here are some current examples in that price range on Gumtree:

Any particular brands/models to look out for (or avoid)?
