Are cheaper push mowers with electric-start reliable? Is there such a thing?

[Dennis S]

Both of my shoulders are bad and I was thinking about an electric-start mower. Does anyone have any experience with them? I would want a non-propelled one since I'm so out-of-shape I can't keep up with a self-propelled one, if there is such a thing. And, like always with me, it needs to be cheap.

Edit: I ran across this battery mower. I don't know the size of my yard, but it takes a little over an hour to mow it and I would probably only do 1/2 at a time, so a rechargable one might be OK.
