Mental note, future long grass will be slashed by the victa.
I have just replaced my old Honda Buffalo Classic HRU 196 with a new Honda Buffalo Pro blade brake HRU 196. The middle one in roddy's link.

I have always used Hondas the engines go forever. One of the failings IMHO is all the Hondas I have used will not catch wet grass. If I am cutting wet grass I end up with one green hand from constantly clearing the shoot. My latest Honda catches a little better.

The Mulching insert works well.

As everyone else says my latest Honda is very heavy. Occasionally I will have to lift my mower over a central heating unit in someones side way. I struggle to lift it and I am reasonably fit and 94 kg's.
