Anything with a briggs and stratton engine should be good to go
i don't cut my own grass. But when i did i have club cadet and troy products
i think lowes still sells john deere.. no discount for getting there before season, unless someone has bought and returned it already. expect to pay ~$400 for one.
How big a lawn are you mowing? I had a Monkey Wards (made by MTD) riding mower that lasted quite a while, and bought a John Deere rider to replace it. The knock against it is the mulching portion doesn't work worth a crap, so if you don't mind raking it's OK. The mulching kit just closes the exit hole on the deck, actual mulching blades would be a big help. Consumers report give the Deere & Cub Cadet high marks for the price, I think I bought the Deere because we have an actual John Deere dealer nearby so parts & repairs won't be an issue.
Just get one of these and call it a day

Go to weingartz off van dyke between hall road and 21 mile. Talk to a sale guy named terry. Tell him your budget and he will work with you. we buy thousands of dollars every year thru him and hes a good guy. Toro, Honda and deere are going to all do the same thing basically. maybe you wanna Look on craigslist though for something cheep. We keep a small mower in all the landscaping trailers for small things and never wanna buy them new. We've got 500 self propelled mowers for 150.00 on CL. its worth a shot before going new.
I also have to say craftsman. Although I wouldn't think anyone makes a bad mower.
