"I have a honda hrx537 hy and weibang 53asd
Can't go wrong with either.
Weibang with a highlife blade and a dedicated mulching blade leave a phenomenal finish. Better than the honda but if grass is long or wet it can stick underneath and completely…"

Gadgets that were surprisingly useful: catcher on hedge trimmer

Impulse buys/ gadgets that turn out to be useful!Bought a Stihl catcher that is easy to put on/ remove. It just slides on and off. Helps when doing tops of hedges to bring down debris. Would be perfect if longer.

"Kaaz, lawnflite and cobra pro are all old model rebranded honda's. Probably with the same chocolate honda gear box.
The honda hrx hy models have a hydrolic fluid gear box, apparently far more durable than orginal honda gear boxes acourding to honda…"

"Apologies I thought
you said HRH but I have owned the hrx
yes could go roller , but nothing I've used collects like the cobra :) "

Lee Davis replied to Lee Davis's discussion New mower time!

"I think the lack of mulching puts me off. Having used a dedicated mulcher I've come to regard it as essential for the health of the lawns now. I think if I was going to buy a machine without mulching it would have to be a roller."

"Thanks Stephen, I wasn't really aware of that brand but they do look amazing. I'd say similar price to Honda currently though. "

Stephen r Brook-Smith replied to Lee Davis's discussion New mower time!

they do a kaaz. , lawnflite , cobra…"

"My Hayter has variable speed, not hydrostatic, but I've always just kept it on full speed. My dedicated mulcher is self-push, so if i hit a section of lawn that doesn't mulch very well I just pull it back and go over it again. I suppose with a…"

Catherine Rose replied to James's discussion Overseeding

"I need to aerate, scarify, level, seed and top dress next week too. How often should you water with a sprinkler and for how long? "

Peter sellers replied to Lee Davis's discussion New mower time!

"Hydrostatic drive is a fantastic option when mulching or collecting as the speed is infinately variable to the conditions, as to robustness I would have no concerns ours are doing 30 plus hours a week with multiple operators who abuse them . Not…"

Lee Davis replied to Lee Davis's discussion New mower time!

"Thanks for your reply Peter. I've been out to a couple of Honda dealers today. I liked the relative lightness of the HRX 476, but was worried about how robust it was in comparison to the HRD 536 HX and Weibang. I'm also still unsure of the benefits…"

Vic 575 replied to James's discussion What is average cost for mowing a garden?

"At those very low rates Lee, I could find you a lot of work. I effectively pay my strimmer man between £40 and £55 per hour [price per job so the faster he works the higher his hourly rate] and he is using my equipment and fuel."
