Stihl rm650

Hello, today my etesia pro46 found a cricket ball in some long grass and after a brief confrontation spat it out through the side of the deck!! So a new mower is needed, just wondering if anyone currently or have previously run a stihl rm650 mower as my local dealer has one sitting there ready to go where as there's bit of a wait for a new etesia and it's quite abit cheaper...?

    When we've cracked the deck weve made good with a fibreglass repair (as long as it's not a hugh gaping hole!),

    We've this evening just ordered another Pro46 - I got the impression from the dealer that there wouldn't be a long lead time on one?

    Hi Oliver I've been using my 650t since April, the previous 3 yrs

    pro 46.... 650 cheaper quicker collects wet better, 1 height adjuster (heaven)  mulch plug included 

    good mulch finish..... will it last like my 18 yr old pro 46 I doubt it.....

    think the difference I paid was £300, if i buy another mower it will 

    be the 46 it leaves a better finish and no doubt it will out live it....

    Thanks, decided to get another pro46, it'll be the third one now, doesn't really seem anything else that ticks all the boxes! Nick - originally it was approx 10-14 days but another dealer has them in stock so collecting Monday!
