    I have a push mower and I am not fit but have not trouble with cutting the grass no matter what length it is, I adjust the height of the blade to suit.
    My first mower lasted 18 years with minimum maintenance and best of all no cost for electricity, I got a new one last year as a gift and that was the only reason I changed.

    I have used hover type mowers when working in other peoples gardens and I hated the experience, I actually found it to be harder work pushing them about, my dad had an electric rotary and it was OK but had a tendancy to leave bald spots on the lawn if it was not perfectly flat.
