I have used honda self prepelled mowers for 22 years and always been very happy with the product untill their latest model it is under powered struggles through long thick grass cuts very poorly the wheels spin so you have to push it just a very poor mower all round very dissapointed honda should be ashamed of their product

If you are sick of pulling the handle and pushing through thick grass then this is the mower for you. It is so easy to start and glides easily through the thickest of lawns. The catcher is simple to empty and I find the mower very reliable. The first major service was expensive but worth the effort. It is very dependable.

Mulched really well, thought I would never use catcher again, starts easily. That's all the good stuff. The self propelled system is a cheaper version of the commercial series and is really hard to pull backwards, had mine in to be repaired as Honda sent out an update but came back no better. You can't adjust the drive speed unless you don't push the drive all the way and make to belt slip. Returned it to Bunnings for refund. Wish I had read the reviews on here, would have saved time and money.

Pretty poor. I live 1 hr form the place where I purchased the mower. It is very challenging to fix even simple things like the belt which keeps coming off.
Mine has done very few hrs and it drives me mad. Have to see if i can get the old one going again.

under-powered wheel adjustment replaced each wheel has to be adjusted/small grass shute clogs up/ very heavy/back driving wheels slip tread not suitable had more problems with the honda in three years than my old mower of thirty years now back in shop again any more trouble i will buy a different brand and give it to charity with a warning about the machine warren

Purchased this mower 2nd hand, great mower to use, like the self propelled as I have back problems, just wish I could find a catcher as mine did not come with one but I use the mulcher anyway. This mower has more then enough power to get the job done, yes it is heavy to push but it is self propelled so that is a mute point anyway.

Bad mower.
Don't even think about it.
After a great run of 16 years with a Honda Buffalo it seemed like a good idea.
This mower isn't a patch on a real honda,In my opinion the usa models are crap.
No power and just plain bad all round,,I want mine gone asap...

Very expensive to maintain a lot more expensive than most of the other Honda models the blades are hard to buy even the mower shops are finding it hard to get blades when you do price them there about $35 each and there are 2 blades not cheap . The self drive on this model is crap as well I have trouble all the time with trying to pull the mower back the self drive wont let it pull back . The motor s are ok and runs good but that's the only good thing about this model I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS MODEL TO ANY ONE AVOID IT ALL TOGETHER
