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

have only room for 2 mowers- others are going.  Question is which 2 do I keep? I don't mind putting alittle work in them, but really want to keep the ones that are of better quality..and have a better durability record.  I'll list what I have ( basic description as I don't have model numbers accessable)  all about 10 years and older.   (1)Honda Harmony 215 - needs new head otherwise good, no bag.    (2) Snapper- looks to only need cover over drive disk area, and tune up      (3)Lawnboy silver series with a 6.5 hp Brigg's on it.- minor paint wear. steel deck     (4) another Lawnboy identical to #3 except has a 5 hp tecumseh- motor seems to burn oil..1/4 qt per hour.    (5) 2 very old magnisium deck lawnboys. one has steel cover that sits sideways, other has yellow plastic larger cover. the second one is self-propelled...niether is in running condition yet-but may need just TLC.   I know this really isn't much to go by, but just looking for a general idea on what to keep based on value and relibility.        thanks for you guy's opinion- I respect all your opinions and experiance      Gene

Toro does have the alluninum deck and I think it is a susuki motor..but deck is pited and alot of paint flaked off. also missing some hardware or something down by drive system? not good enough to keep I don't think.   thanks again       Gene   p.s. need to ask another question but will start a new thread for it.
