Customer review summary generated by AI, including incentivized reviews.Wow.....$550 for 2 mowing seasons.
Purchased in April 2023 and it worked great that first summer. Winterized it, stored it and polled in back out Spring of 24 to find the engine sounding weird and unable to get it to start. Eventually figured out laying it on the left for just a second or two, gets enough gas where it needs to go to start it. That worked ok for season 2, though it sounded like a drowning cow while mowing. Come spring 2025, no way to get it to start, mower string can't be pulled, snaps back. I can't do it myself ...

3rd Honda mower
This is my third Honda mower since buying my first one in 1998. I purchased this model and have had nothing but problems. The handle lock grips continue to fall off causing the locking pins to become loose. This then causes the pins to wear the locking holes which then causes the handle to be very loose. Also, the back inside plastic cover started hitting the blades causing the blades to run the back cover. This has happened only over 2 mowing seasons. My previous two mowers over 26 years ...

Faulty Carburetor
I purchased this lawn mower and used it only for light, regular home use. After about 25 uses, it began to idle up and down, making it difficult to operate smoothly. I only used it to mow my own lawn, which is approximately 1,000 square feet, so it was never overworked or used commercially. I had the carburetor cleaned, but the problem continued. After further inspection, it turned out the carburetor itself is faulty and does not properly regulate fuel flow. Unfortunately, cleaning did not reso...

It made a good first impression
I thought this was a good product. The lawn mower started surging after three months of use. Possibly bad gas since I'm living in a coastal area. When new, it was easy to pull and started first time everytime. Now I'm afraid the rope will break if I try to start it. It's very hard to turn over. Not sure what has happened. I got for a 1/4 acre lot Very small lot and still not even a year and it's having problems. I spent a lot of money and for what!!!? Very unhappy with this mow...

Honda Lawn Mower
This new purchase replaces my current Honda lawn mower which has provided excellent service for 14 years. I decided to replace it after I had some minor problems with the drive function, which is being repaired by the local mower repair shop. Otherwise, the mower is still in good condition. I gave it to the repair shop owner and he said he would use it in his own yard. I was so satisfied with the 14 years of service of my previous Honda mower, there was no question that I would replace it with ...

Third Time Is Not A Charm
This is my third Honda walk behind mower and I'm far from pleased. The cut started out great and over the past few months is poor. I have not hit any rocks or tree roots and have sharpened the blades, yet there's still a noticeable high spot in the grass after each pass.

Honda Lawnmower
Was already assembled and oil was in it from the dealership, just put fuel in it and started on first pull! Quiet machine and cuts well, I like the fact I can leave the bag on it even when mulching. I used to have a Honda Lawnmower years ago and the deck rusted out, the motor was still good. I will take good care of this one and hopefully will be the last one I have to buy. Great machine!

Disappointed in my Honda
Lawn mower was great til I could not pull the cord to start it. I did a search and found it had been recalled Great. I took it to a local Honda repair shop and they fixed it. But after using it this summer it would not let me pull the cord. It seems to be doing the same thing that I took it in for the recall. What do I do now. I'm 84 years old and cannot deal with taking it to the shop. This is my last Honda mower. I've had several mowers in my time but this is the first that gave me ...
