  • Honda lawn mower HRR216VYA. I do not like this lawn mower after over one year of ownership. I explain in the video. Walmart had a Briggs and Stratton electric start self propelled lawn mower I wanted to purchase. Problem was a waited a little too long and that style of mower was discontinued.

    Never met one person who prefers Briggs over Honda. I’ll trade anyone all day

    Surprised that there are so many 👎🏽 on this video. Have the same issues with mine. All valid points.

    I got my first Honda (HRR216VKA) last spring. I was so impressed by it, I got two more, an HR214SXA from 1985, and a brand new HRX217HYA. Honda is incredible and I can’t imagine why there would really be any issues with them, other than user error.

    Clean your mower after every use and the grass wouldn’t build up. Tighten your screws and the handle wouldn’t shake like that. You never flip a mower on it’s carb side.

    I got the hrx217 used in 2007. Used it commercial a couple seasons and at home since, still runs. I just picked up a second one yesterday for 50% off, I'm guessing bc box was damaged bc I can't get anymore at that price or I would have bought all they had

    For the height adjustment... I just simply drilled an extra hole on each side. Looks like it came from factory. Now handle clicks in for taller user.

    Thanks for the honest review. Really helpful, I'm looking to buy a mower shortly and I am considering this model.

    Should have got a HRX or the commercial version. Your yard is big enough a rider should be best. I like my HRX.

    I think all small mowers should be avilable with larger diameter wheels, even as an option.

    I feel the opposite... my brigs has a major flaw that a lot of them have. The way the gas tank is I always had issue with spillage... zero issues with Honda.. engine issue is well documented it was a husqvarna brand mower

    I just got mine yesterday and unboxed it today. The only complaint I have so far is the handle also. This mower was not made for tall people 🤦🏽‍♀️. I will mow in a week so hopefully with the new upgrades that’s the only thing I can complain about.

    i own that same lawn mower i love it. i don't have to restart the mower every time i have to move something or empty the bag.

    I have the same one and the newer model of this and I'm very satisfied they fixed all those issues. The handle is taller now the shoot doesn't build up grass in the bag clip area so bad unless you cut wet grass. And the handle if firm. They ditched all the adjustments for the drive blades and rpm tho. I used some rubber stick on seals and closed up some areas on the new one and it suvks in all the grass better now and doesn't flings dirt and grass out the holes.

    I have a Honda and I love it. Never had an issue once besides the rear wheels locking up when the mower is pulled back. The new HRN fixes that though.

    At least the Honda is made in the USA🇺🇸, North Carolina.

    Sell it and buy what you want! You’re not “Stuck with it!” The re-sale value is pretty good since it’s a Honda!

    You made some good points. The holes on the bottom seem pointless. Maybe they are there for vibration reasons. I still have my Honda model from 2010 and it still runs strong. Starts on the first pull. I am looking to get another Honda because my turf is thicker and my old one is starting have a though time cutting it.
