You left out one important choice, Price, that is a big consideration.:thumbsup:
I'm kind of surprised that you did not include dealer support as a criterion in your poll. Would you buy an expensive brand name mower if the nearest dealer / service center was hundreds of miles away ?
Also, the criterion of manufacturer is ambiguous. For example, I'm more concerned with the motor manufacturer in a simple push mower than the overall manufacturer. In a more expensive and complex mower like a ZTR, I might care more about the mower manufacturer than the brand of the engine.
