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

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

Never owned any Honda small engine that didn't start easily, run strong,

For two of them, I pulled the engines and sold them used for a lot more
than I thought was reasonable!
