My dad loves them and got rid of all his gas powered tools. I've never tried the mower but I used one of they're 18" chainsaws for a day and that thing was very impressive.

I need electric start. Not cordless. But thanks..

 

[Kyrsen]

Gotcha. Gas powered, electric-start, but with a cord. I understand why it's so hard to find now.

i thought it might too. But the reviews did not like the self-propeled control system. So I guess I'll just keep looking for the electric start Honda. They are scarce, and one dealer has said Honda discontinued them.

Not pushing anything on you @WAYNO.
My neighbor gave me his Toro (non electric start) mower like this because the float bowl was full of water.
I've been using it for five years now, and it does start easily. It has worked so well, I have thought better of Toro since my earlier years.
The drive system is OK, and it's a light mower.
The basket clogs easily when the grass is above a certain height relative to the cutting level, or if the grass is damp. In those cases, i just use the side chute adapter.
When I had a Honda, I could cut in the rain and the catcher wouldn't clog, but that sucker would get heavy. It was a steel deck one, stayed with my ex when we got the big D. I understand she let the deck rust out. Oof.
