I find that this mower will not cut the grass short enough. I understand that with a wide wheel base I am not going to achieve a bowing green finish but I would like to have a lawn that looks cut not just the tops out. Recently serviced [ after ] one years use and had to have a new drive pulley fitted [£40] and £65 for the service. Help please.

Now three yrs old. First year good, second year front wheel fell off, and now after third year self propelled drive system will probably require complete overhaul !. As mentioned in other reviews, the Honda engine is very good, and it will outlive all the other mower components by years! From a financial viewpoint, it probably will be better to replace it next year, rather than repair it - although for a better quality machine I know that I will need to pay much more.

Owned Champion Premier since 2006, used for 2 seasons on 1/3 acre, Honda engine ultra reliable, shame the self propelled gearbox isn't the same quality, stopped working at start of 3rd season, needs replacement gearbox approx. £65.00 to buy, then it's upto me to fit. Overall i've found the smaller Champion 46cm cut self propelled works just as well (a lot cheaper as well), it's lighter and easier to move and turn around has been working great now for 2 seasons, the self propelled gearbox is the same as the premier anyway!.
