Dewalt RWD
Best heavy duty mower for homeowners with hilly or sloped yards.
This is a workhorse for anyone dealing with uneven terrain or steep inclines. The rear-wheel drive system pulls the weight for you, making it significantly less exhausting to push than standard models. While it lacks the quiet convenience of battery power, the raw, consistent torque of gas is unmatched for tackling overgrown patches.
