Hi - Ive had a Honda Hrr VKA steel deck GVC160 that I bought used. Its been great. Just got a used 2017 Toro Recycler electric start . Seems like steel deck on honda smoother underneath. Surprised amount of grass buildup under toro but it was tall wet grass. It bagged it fine.
Leaning towards getting top of line HRX with blade break, electric start. I always thought the nexite deck probably never has grass stick to it but reviews say not necessarely. Also noticed talk about adding deck gaurds. Anyone ever had to ask Honda to replace their Nexite Deck? Do you have to pay shipping or get from dealer local? Was it easy or hassle?
I think the older honda is better/more powerfull than the Toro but could be sour on it since prob put $70 to $100 parts to get Toro to work proper. I guess the Honda recharges itself while mowing? Does that work well?
Leaning towards the Honda HRX217HZA (21") 200cc Self-Propelled Electric Start Lawn Mower w/ Blade Brake Clutch if I can sell the other two and get maybe $400. Live in WA so rain 9/10 ths of the year! Usually bag because I don't mow enough to be able to recycle clippings since usually soaking wet grass except end June then Jul/Aug.
There's a few Harsh Reviews but most seem to think its great? Never even bought a new car in my life and I'm looking at buying a $900 Mower!? What do you guys think? Splurge and buy it or not? Thanks for any/all advice.
