About 45 years ago when I bought my first mower I bought a Sears mower on my Sears credit, I had it for years till I couldn't get parts for it any more. Then I bought my second Craftsman. It was the biggest pile of junk I ever owned. I told myself that would be my last Craftsman mower I would buy. It fell apart from the day I got it and I junked it after about three years. I next mower was a used John Deere model 68 which I am still using. Now I have a customer/friend with a Craftsman with a small lawn. He has had it well over 10 years and the only thing he has done to it other then maintenance is steering linkage and he has to keep cleaning the carburetor because he has dirty gas cans.

I my self would go with the Honda I have two but not because I don't like craftsman I just like the feel of the Honda better. Now I have had to return a Honda as I have had trouble with stihl/ echo/ Dixie chopper/ JD. Ford / Chevy. Point is your going to get a bad one once in awhile. I say say take the mower for a walk is it easy to turn or pull up a hill. They both have there pros and cons so go with the one that is a part of you when you use it. If you have the money go with a snapper
