"Hi James

"Sounds like a big yes for the Honda. I had the side discharge model at the strat of the season with VY and to be honest, couldn't get on with out. As pointed out, after an hour, the thumbs felt it. To be honest, I felt it was just a gimmick and much…"

"Great to hear good reviews about the Honda. It's all very well listening to the sales staff. However, they don't actually use the mowers and to hear views of people who have actually used them is refreshing. "

"My Honda HRX 537 has been amazing this season. Surprisingly, one of my favourite features is the 'chute' to mulch or bag. My least favourite feature is the individual height adjusters. I can disengage the blade without having to turn it off. I can't…"
