I've been watching Simplicty ads for over 18 months now. $450 is too much. That's a 1-cylinder briggs in that machine....nothing special. And only a 36" deck. If you have any size to mow, look for a 5000 or 6000 series which usually has a 42" deck but may have a 48". The bigger models have more motor and are heavier all around. You can find them, perhaps needing some minor repair, at the same $450 or less.
If the 4211 is the right size for you, it better be pretty nice for $450. Remember that these are 20+ year-old machines and will inevitably need SOMETHING fixed soon. Be patient as they pop up all the time on C/L.
