Just make sure you use an ethanol free gas or a ethanol removal additive
.. The modern Honda engines don't last long with ethanol gas (gunked-up carbonators, corroded gadgets and lines). Honda warranty shops normally have a 3-month wait 🙂

How big is the lot and are you looking at ride on or no? We have 1/2 acre and have a Ryobi ride on. Works great.

2.1 acres. But the grass area is about 5000 sq ft. No riding mower.

The biggest Honda they sell. I think it's the GCV200 engine.

That’s the first negative take I’ve read on an electric mower. Most are happy with the switch. Easy start and no fumes.

I didn’t get 75% of that, but the one I tried was a Ryobi. Don’t know which model, but it was $499. Couldn’t cut zoysia
