Our verdict
Ariens Edge 52
The Edge 52 is one of the cheapest ways onto an Ariens, and for a mid-size lawn it covers the basics well. The highlight is the deck, an 11-gauge fabricated unit inspired by commercial designs where most budget mowers use thin stamped steel, paired with a commercial-grade Kawasaki FR engine that starts easily and lasts. Wide rear tyres smooth out the ride. What you give up at this price is a suspension seat, real speed at 6 mph, and warranty length, with only two years or 150 hours of cover. Sold at Lowe's and easy to buy, it suits a flat suburban lot where a fabricated deck and a good engine matter more than frills.
