    Get one that doesn't require the gas/oil mix. One less thing to think about.

    I've never seen one that required a mix. Not even the dinasuar my grandparents had dating from the 60's.

    The Craftsman I have is designed to be a side-discharge, but has a thick plastic piece that converts it to a mulcher. It's all I use now. I don't use self-propelled either, but I'll add a plug for the Craftsman. Good equipment for the price.
