These mowers are fantastic, easy to use and empty, quiet, fast, cut like a dream, leave stripes, infact there is nothing bad I can say about them!
I'm on my second Izy mower, the first lasted 10 years and I could have it fixed if I wanted to but it wasn't cost effective in my line of work(I'm a small scale professional gardener, so it was used 4-6 days a week in rain and sun) I've had previous mowers last less than a couple of years that have cost more.Incidentally,Spare parts are easily obtainable online or through dealers.
I consider the Honda range as the 'Rolls Royce' of mowers as they really are built with the job in mind.They just feel sturdy and tough and with the self propelled option, they just glide effortlessly across the lawn. The grass compacts well into the box, which is very easy to empty with its 2 handles.The start system is great, almost as easy as a key start just prime the engine if it's cold,push the lever to choke and one pull of the starter and its running.
I cannot recommend these mowers enough,I know they are pretty expensive but you do get what you pay for! A quality product that's built to last.
