My pusher died last fall at the end of the season, and quite frankly, even though I don't have a large lawn, it's time for a rider. What are the brands I should look for in the smaller tractors? I don't have a very difficult lot, mostly flattish, and less than an acre. Are the Briggs engines still something to stay away from with the valve problems after a few years? Considering most of the mowers I have seen in the lower end of the spectrum (price wise) seem to use B&S engines, is it a losing battle unless you want to spent 1500+?
