Depends how large an area you have to mow. If it’s not a large lot, try a reel push mower (no engine — you push and the blades go round and cut the grass — doesn’t work too well if the grass gets too long). It’s quiet, non-polluting and you get more exercise.
Otherwise, I recommend an electric mower. Ones that need a cord are less expensive, but you have to remember to keep the cord from being mowed (cut). They don’t pollute as much as gas powered mowers and are quieter and need less maintenance.
My girlfriend owns a craftsman lawn mower, their lightweight, relatively cheap and come with a good guarantee. You’ll get them a good bit cheaper online and they’ll be delivered to your house so there’s no hassle.
Expect to pay around $300 for them
