Longer/with less maintenance than a Toro. When I replaced my 8+/- year old Honda three years ago (when drive failed), I was shocked by what Honda was asking. So, I shopped around, including Consumer Reports, and ended up getting a Toro.
I regret it.
My Honda gave very little hassle, starting religiously on first pull. Toro, not so much, despite the guarantee. Their guarantee is only worth its usefulness. To get free service under the guaranteed to start guarantee, you have to take it in for authorized service every year. Then, if you time it right, you are without the mower for 2 to 4 weeks. They do provide a loaner, but what a hassle.
In for service every year, sometimes twice, drive mechanism not as easy to use and not as durable. My local Toro dealer hires HS kids to do the service and it shows.
If you can maintain it yourself, maybe Toro, otherwise stick w Honda.

What is the best self propelled lawn mower?
The Honda mowers are the best quality push mower, they are extremely easy to start and last long (we have a 1980's Honda push mower and it started in one pull after sitting all winter) but the truth is you get what you pay for you can go to sears and buy a mower for $200.00 and it might only last a few years. But if you get a Honda it will most likely last at least 10 years. hope this helps. God bless. Snapper makes a quality unit, not as good as Honda but not nearly as expensive. starts around $300 for good one, they have used the same simplistic design since the sixties. very simple to maintain. parts are exposed for easy cleaning (the most common failure on self propelled system is grass build up under covers interfering with belt)
