"We're also in the north west and charge £30 per hour for regulars and more for one-offs with a decent mark up on planting jobs. Very few round here charging less than £30 per hour and rightly so"
"Hi. I can't comment on the Izy but I've owned a Weibang legacy 56 for 3 1/2 years and it's been excellent. Build quality is very robust and starts every time. I don't know about the virtue model but if it's build as well as the legacy it will be a…"
"I'd go with the weibang 5yr warranty you can't get anything better but remember your not a contractor it's just for home use 😁 otherwise it's a 1yr warranty. I've got a weibang it's 7yrs old and hasn't broken anything yet.

"I don't know much about that Weibang but I wouldn't touch that brand again myself. I had the 48Pro BBC & it had to have a new gearbox within two months of purchase.The same gearbox was knackered when I sold it & it had maybe 300 hours on it."
"I would have a look at the Stihl RM448t, which is a 46cm single speed self propelled mower. It is roughly the same price as the Honda IZY self propelled. I would go self propelled over push only- the difference is price is worth it once you hit a…"
"Hi Peter thank you, that does make sense, it is a cheaper end model (although the 46cm is £460 here!) I also don't do much mowing so I expect it will last me a bit longer than others who do a lot of mowing. "
"One thing to bear it mind is that the grass will probably need mowing weekly until the new turf has exhausted itself and starts to reply on nutrients in the ground."
"Caroline. I think you have to be realistic and philosophical here. The Honda izy is a domestic machine which our dealer sells at £370 inc vat ,remove the vat which makes the dealer selling price £309 as they pass the vat on to HMRC. So we have a…"
