Outdoor Power Equipment (Lawn Mowers, Snow Blowers, Chain Saws and more) Discussions

Hello;

I need to purchase a new lawnmower.  I have narrowed it down to a Craftsman powered by a 190 cc Briggs engine and what appears to be essentially the same mower under the Husqvarna label with a 160cc Honda engine.  Both have torque ratings of 6.75 ft.lbs  The price is within 10 dollars.  I send to give a mower quite a work-out -- tall grass and all and really don't know which to purchase?  Any insight would be deeply appreciated, thanks.

That's a no-brainer.  Honda.  Especially for that price.  If you were paying a lot more for the engine, I'd go Briggs.  But for ten bucks????????
