Lawn Mower
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. |

Troybilt today is not the troybilt of yesterday. It has been taken over by MTD and cheapened like everything else they make. |

Push mowers: Troy-Bilt TB-110 11A-A23N is listed 3rd out of 19 (Best Buy). Troy-Bilt 11A-B29Q is listed 9th (Recommended). Self propelled models, (Multi-speed) are 9th, 10th, 18th, 21st, 23rd and 24th out of 28. (Single Speed) 10th out of 13. None of the Self propelled have a Best Buy or Recommended notation. I think that Lowes sells this brand. Craftsman models are right up there with Troy-Bilt MLD |

From Honda Power's web-site: Honda manufactures approximately 500 thousand lawnmowers per year in the United States, France, Australia, China and Italy*, and supplies them to Australia and other countries in addition to the two largest markets: North America and Europe. Local production began at an early stage, starting in the United States in 1984 and in France in 1986, |

One is a push the other is a self propelled. I do a lot of work on small engines. Mostly Motorcycles and ATV's, but I do get a lot of mowers too. Here's my take........ Whether it is a Briggs engine or a Honda engine doesn't matter if you do the required maintenance and do it properly. If you are the type of person that don't do the maintenence, again, it doesn't matter because ti will blow up anyway. Only you can make that call. Engines when properly maintained, will out live the rest of the mower. The things that do go wrong with push mowers are mainly wheels and rusted bodys. Bodys need cleaned and wheels need lubed. The thicker the metal is, the longer it will take to rust out ( if that could be a concern). Push vs sef-propelled......... You're not getting any younger. So if you plan on staying in the house where you are for many years to come, get the self-propelled. You'll thank me later. However, if you plan on moving into a condo in the next couple years, get the push. Hank ~~~~ just using logic |

Bought a new mower last year at age 65 and got the self propelled again. |

I'm a bit younger tho not much and when I hear that some item I'm buying carries a lifetime warrantee, I chuckle inside because I ask myself... my life or theirs? Never did this before so age does bring a different outlook on things. |

It's funny how our logic changes as we age. :-) Hank My "antique" lawn mower is a self propelled high-wheeler. The highwheel is very easy to push, so I very seldom actually use the self propelled feature. I generally mow faster than the self propelled will go. It is a 25 incher with 20 inch bicycle tires on the back - tubular steel frame - and the old deck rusted trough so I installed stainless steel. The late sixties/early seventies Briggs 3.5HP motor (same size as a 5) finally died last year so I installed a "chinese kit engine" honda clone 6.5 HP OHV. Uses less gas than the old 3.5. At 60, this mower has a good chance of outlasting me. |

I rolled the dice and figured the 30 year may outlast me and I'd not want to have that expense replacing the 20 year when I'm retired and in my late 70's. |

Ah yes, remember that a tad. When I lived in Queens, NYC, we had a small lawn and we used a push grass cutter (no motor) ... forgot what we called it then. When we lived on LI, NY, we had a gas powered push mower. Fortunately both lawns were on level ground. Can't imagine the fun it would be when it's not level but that would surely burn calories. Thanks for reminding me !! |

Not that tiny. I used to do neighbors back lawn for a quarter. As a kid I could never understand what she wanted me to do to the edges of the lawn, she always complained but she paid me anyway.

Oh the memories grin. |

... 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. CS |

Jim I hope you change the oil once and awhile. First home we owned, had a new neighbor in a corner house who previously lived in an apartment for his entire life. He bought a new mower, filled it with gas, went on his merry way cutting the gas until the engine seized due to no oil. Brought it back, got another one, did the same thing. Third mower was the charm. He was not a native speaker of English, doubt if he understood the instructions. |
