Honda GCV190
With the Honda GCV190, handling tough, steep terrain becomes a breeze. The self-propelled mower starts with a single pull, even after being stored way for the winter. One especially nice feature is the blade stop system, which allows you to stop the blade while keeping the motor running in case you need to move any obstacles out of the way. This saves considerable time and effort. The quality of construction is also laudable—Honda takes pride in its machinery. With the ability to vary the degree of bagging and mulching, you have more options. We were impressed with the consistently fine mulching. Overall, it’s a solid purchase.
