I got a used (11 hours) Ariens two years ago for my 2 acres. Very similar specifications and a Kawa motor. I got a 42" as I have some steep parts and some tight spaces.

I really like it - it saves at least an hour of mowing time over my old Cub Cadet tractor. There are very few spots left to be cleaned up with the hand mower - I usually just finish the tight spots with he weed-eater.

You do need to be a bit careful on the steep spots when it's wet - you can easily spin a wheel.

There's a bolt on hitch available for mine. The only real disadvantage I've seen is that I can't put a snowblower on it.

The kids and wife don't complain about mowing any more.
