I've think I've narrowed it down to Ariens and Honda.
Honda engines are virtually unbreakable but the machines are also 2x

Both brands have great local dealers.Â* Which brand do you recommend?

Depends on how much you will be doing.Â* After many different lawnmowers
I finally bought a Honda and over the years, would have been the
cheapest way long term.

Snow twice a year, no big deal, anything will work but 18" every week,
get the Honda.

Good advice. I went the same direction and got a Honda mower. My Troy
Bilt snow thrower works fine but sometimes only gets one use a year.
