Guess you’ve never read my previous replies to what is the best push mower to purchase. I used to say that even the cost of the Toro Super Recycler was high, it was a 20 year mower and worth paying the higher price. I no longer can say that. Honda used to make a quality mower, but they have gotten out the that business. Toro Recyler steel deck is a good mower, but not close to the Super Recycler. For me to now say this is the mower I would now recommend, I would to say “it’s a crap shoot, get what you feel comfortable with”. If you really want an answer, start watching FleaBay, garage sales, Craig’s List, etc. for a Super Recycler built before 2020, and treat it like your first born. As with everything nowadays “They don’t make them like they used to”.
