I prefer honda. 💯 I know alot of people here in the u.s who have had their Hondas for 18+ years or more and still going. No battery powered mower will run that long without replacing batteries at least 2-3 times. With can be very expensive.

Just gone from a robust Honda to a stihl rm545vm because of the reason that it cuts better in the wet. Wish I'd never bothered. The stihl is light, yes, but that's only because it is made of cheap plastic, which I have found is easily breakable. Also found that the honda, which has an easy start engine, starts much better than the stihl. Honda is 4 years old, Stihl 2 months. Since putting this on, have returned the Stihl for repair or replacement under warranty.

The review says Stihl RM 448 VC but at the beginning you said that is the Stihl RM 448 TC? which is it?

You would of thought by now Honda would have a plastic box as a optional extra... think they would do well

what makes the Stihl better in the wet?

Iv immediately questioned the handle bars in the stihl and from seeing the play from just the weight of the mans hands on it is a total fail for me.

the honda izy is great but its gonna rust if you dont clean it after every time you mow.

Sometimes my Sthil RM448 TX (Loncin engine) gives a lot of smoke when I start it; Sometimes zero smoke when I start it, why the difference? It's 2 years old and oil level is ok.

I found stihls customer service to be terrible. I won’t recommend them to anyone who t might be good gear but I’ve spent thousands with them to be lied to. Won’t happen again. I’ve even covered over the name on my gear to stop giving them fee advertisement.
