Andrew1953's review of Honda HRX 476 QX

“Honda HRX 476 poor experience ”

★★☆☆☆

written by Andrew1953 on 12/06/2015

I purchased a honda 19inch mower 19 years ago and it was the best mower I have ever brought and it was well worth the high price I paid. It never gave me any trouble at all during the 19 years until I broke the casing. I replaced it with the same equilavent model which has been one of the worst mowers I have ever owned. The mower has failed to start on two occasions due to stuck valves. The mower is so slow and has no revs due to new regulations !! It struggles to even cut the lawn sometimes. The drive belt has come off twice and I am told that the gearbox fails on this model due to oil leaks.
What have Honda donet of this once excellent machine. I do not recommend this mower especially at the high price.

Really surprising - I have the HRX 476 and slow it is not! In fact I usually throttle back a bit when mowing so I feel more in control. Cuts through thick grass with no effort. I think the reviewer's mower must have a problem - maybe the fuel? This is an excellent mower, just a bit heavy in my opinion.
