Are Honda lawn mower engines easier to start than Briggs & Stratton?
I'm shopping for a mower for my mom. She's fairly small, so I'd prefer to get her something that's easier to start. Are Honda engines easier than B&S, or are they roughly the same?
I'm also curious if mowers become harder to start as they age, if you have any knowledge about that.
Thanks!
my experience is Honda engines (no matter what piece of equipment they run) usually start first-pull...even after sitting for long periods of time (as opposed to the more stubborn B&S items). AND they usually keep running (longer than B&S could ever dream of). the extra $$ is usually worth it in the long run.
