Looking for informed opinions on Troy Bilt lawn mowers. Have the opportunity
to purchase a couple of different models on sale. Both are in models with
Honda 160cc motors. One is a push the other is a self propelled.

Honda makes good motors, and 99.9% of a lawn mower is the motor.

Troy Bilt, as a brand, is pure ****, and I wouldn't buy anything with their
name on it. Most of their stuff is made by MTD, and calling them **** is an
insult to ****.

You probably won't go wrong with one of their mowers, especially if the
price is right. The self propelled is a bit more complex, and eventually it
will need parts replaced. You'll have a hard time doing that with this
brand.

Still, most likely you'll see a decade or more of good use.
