Best Self-propelled push mower? Gas not electric.

Time to retire the old one and leaning towards the Honda HRX unless the OB can sway me to another. Trying to keep in under 700 if possible. Flat yard, maybe 3/4 acre. TIA.

Love my Toro (Recycler model with personal pace self propel). I never really liked the Honda thumb style handle.

Best mower setup - Big wheels in back, self-propelled drive on the front wheels. Makes turns so much easier.

I have the Honda HRN, I've been pretty happy with it. Starts the first pull and plenty of power. Self propel will move it faster than I care to walk.

I've had the HRX for 2 years now. Great mower, no mechanical issues. Cranks on the first pull. Only problem I have with it is the mouth of the bag is slightly larger than paper yard bags

Honda HRX 217 is the only answer

Can't beat a Honda

I looked hard at the HRX and ended up with the HRN. I’ve only had it for about a month but it’s been great so far.
I had a Craftsman with the Honda motor and the blade bolt busted in the shaft and I didn’t feel like messing with it. The motor is absolutely fine. I bought it in 2009.
I much prefer the powered wheels in the back.

I had an HRX before going bigger. It was the best lawnmower I’ve owned, just wished they had a bigger deck.

Not gonna talk you out of it
Had mine for a couple of years and it works like the day I bought it.

I didn't see it mentioned yet and it's above your budget but the Toro Timekeeper (or timemaster, don't remember) would be great for a yard that size

Absolutely zero complaints from my Toro Recycler. Its around 7 years old and still starts on the first pull every time.

Honda

I love my Honda. It's a great mower.
Otherwise, I'd try Juan or Jose

Honda took a big step back with the current HRN's, the GCV170/GCV200 don't seem to have the reliability of the GCV160/190's and there are some serious issues with the self-propel system with the newer deck design, especially if you mulch grass while it is still damp. Maybe Honda will make some updates soon.

Love my all wheel drive husqvarna HU725AWDEX push mower. Also notice there are alot of them in the neighborhood. Not sure they make the model I have anymore, brought it from Lowe's many years ago.
