Well, I can start by saying that this should be pretty obvious for any domain, cheap tools are always a bad choice and when it comes to mowers this is also true.
There are 3 types of mowers available, those mowers that you push from behind that are not powered by any engine, mowers that you push from behind but are also engine powered and riding beasts, small tractors that are really, really fun working with.
Now, considering those 3 categories above listed, you can see 3 different price ranges.
While the first ones you can get for under $100, the mowers in the second category you can get for prices in the range of $100-$500, the last category goes way higher: above $2000 and up to maybe $5000.
Not cheap, you may say, not cheap at all but quality comes with the price or you get what you pay for.
If you pay under $100 for a cheap mower, then this is what you will get, a cheap one, not much to expect from it, but if you pay more, well, you get in the range of quality tools.
I know that not everybody can pay $4000 for a gardening tool, a mower and in many cases this is good for large surfaces of grass, if you have a large area to mow, it can become efficient and why not, fun! Also, for an expensive tool you can get good support, good warranty from the producer/manufacturer/seller so you can go back and fix it.
You can say you get his also for under $100 products but you realize not much support can be provided for a product under $100.
Personally I am for expensive lawn mowers, but I can not necessarily afford one so I go with the middle ones, those in the range of $100 - 500, I recently purchased one that costs $450 and I am very happy with since from day one it worked like a charm and when I had my doubts about cleaning it I just called the support department that immediately put me on tracks!
