Ok its not a Honda, but at this price you are getting a bargain, comes with an 125 cc E Briggs & Stratton engine, self propelled, what's not to like about this, bought one last week, started first time, cuts fine, will never go back to a flymo after using this :smiley:

Great bit of kit for the money, picked one up today. As the OP stated, started easily first time. Quiet (for a petrol mower) and smooth running. Love the one handle height adjustment. Self propulsion is a bit fast but easy to get used to. Can't go wrong at that price especially with the top name engine.

top name engine. er no. naff imo and not a patch on Honda mowers. sure they are more expensive but are well worth it. mines lasted over 10 years and starts first time every time. had cheap petrol mowers prior to that, never again

Does the height adjuster raise the front and back wheels together?

Looks a better build to the sovereign lawnmower I bought 2 years...loads of plastic and plastic wheels. This looks great, great engine and a fantastic price

Think you may be better off with a gx250 clone, with the side crank not bottom
Hot deal for self propelled, steel deck and Briggs and Stratton. Though many people won't need self propelled, unless they have very big gardens with hills and bankings. It adds weight and mechanical complexity. TBH 4 stroke mower engines are all pretty good if you treat them right, even the Cheapo ones.
If you are using it in a professional capacity then sure get something with a Honda or Kawasaki (Though in my experience Kawa engined Hayter/Toro's are better than Honda engined Lawnflite's). The old 2 stroke Victa's are fantastic little machines if you can get a good one on ebay, so light and powerful for their size.

If you have serious money and a serious garden then a Zero Turn such as the extremely fun Ferris Evolution is the way to go! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZXaS_LcANU
