After many hours of reading, including the reviews and comments here, I bought the Honda HRC16. I am about 30 cuts in and so far I love it.The first day, I cut and bagged 4 wet yards, in the rain with no mess and no bogging down. The only issue I have so far, the handle that engages the hydro drive is a little uncomfortable to use. I have pretty big hands and cant imagine how awkward it would be otherwise.
