To add to the above, no matter what you use learn how to sharpen them or know a place in town to get it done. Sharp blades work better and probably cause less strain on gas or electric mowers.
Also, if you are willing to mow more but want the best looking cut, try this...
Experienced guys always suggested the spinning wheel to a flat blade for a finished look.
I was just not that OCD enough to use an old wheel mower since my younger and stronger years in the 60's and 70's. If you have kids and the lawn is not too large maybe get one and let your kids be the energy source.
Your kid early on ...
But as they grow up ...
Legs like that and you can live off their pro lineman earnings.

You shouldnt sharpen mower blades like a knife though. 40 to 60 degrees. You need a straight crisp edge, one side beveled, not a razor blade
