But, every piece of crap lawnmower I've ever owned has outlasted almost every car. Regardless of price. Shawn |

Side note, if anyone is in the market, Lowe's has it on sale until I think the end of April for $750, with the 10Ah and charger, plus a free 5Ah battery. That's what I bought (ingot the blower and string trimmer kits that also came with free batteries. It's a good deal on a top quality piece. I debated the Greenworks 80v stuff from Costco, but it was only a little cheaper in price but a lot cheaper in quality. |

I paid $700 for my self-propelled Honda HRX217 back in 2014. It's still cranking along and starts on the first pull, even after sitting for 3 months in a shed for the winter.
Prior to this mower, I took my dad's 1992 Honda mower back in 2006, installed a new OEM carb ($30) and fixed a gear in the self-propelled unit ($15) and that mower ran until 2014 when it spun it's rod bearing. You might pay more for a Honda mower, but when they last so long and parts are readily available, why in the world would you waste your money on anything else for a non-riding mower? I've converted all my neighbors to Hondas after they saw how long they lasted. They might cost a lot upfront, but they'll outlast anything else on the market by a mile. I've also got a Honda snow blower too. Same thing. Bulletproof after 8 years of use.

Well that is sad, because if truly many moons ago, it would have been USA made
