7 positions from 1" to 4".One thing I really like about that, there are 2 levers for raising/lowering the mowing height vs 4.
Troy-Bilt does have some with a Honda engine. That's my starting point; Honda.at least you didn't buy a troy-bilt
Pretty standard on a Honda for the last 15 years or so....knobs for wheel adjustments are larger on this model.Also appears the knobs, oil fill plug, and gas cap are larger than normal.
Time for me to get one soon. My last one was bought cheap for the small yard we had at that house. Now we have a corner lot and it just ain't cutting it anymore (pun intended). Seriously thinking about a battery powered one though. Any thoughts?
I'm a Milwaukee guy, would absolutely love for them to come out with an M18 setup.
They have almost everything except a mower in M18. Do you have any M12 tools? I've researched and I really want the ratchet. This is about the best deal I've seen, going to get it today. My porter cable drills still work well, but the ratchet makes this a good deal. Cheapest I've seen on the ratchet w/o battery is $130 alone.

I have an m12 grease gun, some flashlights, and a screwdriver. I also have the ratchet on my list. Will come in very handy as I work on all my cars.
Regularly check on Home Depots Deal of the Day. Every week or two they have Milwaukee deals.
I looked at the Ryobi model briefly and have pretty much moved to battery powered tools. With Ryobi's string trimmer...the electric model is so much more powerful than the battery model ... made me shy away from a mower version. One of the houses is a little over a half of an acre and it's thick Centipede. It's a casual stroll behind the Honda's (though more suited for a riding mower, but that's just not really practical for what was needed.)Seriously thinking about a battery powered one though.

The first one I had came with their synthetic deck. NeXite, something like that. There is no may be about its durability. The reason I had to buy the second mower was the first one fell apart. Wheels fell off of it. Still ran well...one pull crack. The second had a steel deck. Last week I put a little JBWeld on two holes...would have last another few years.they may be durable, but i'm not too sure i want a mower with a plastic deck. sure steel can rust,
I can't. I've seen too many go that 150 dollar route, two years later there doing it again, and in a few years ...Very nice, Terry. I go cheap on lawn mowers, just a push mower in GA and another push mower and a used Cub Cadet for the lake. I do enjoy how much ground I can cover in the Cub Cadet.

@planomateo point to Milwaukee earlier and like you, I"ve been into Ryobi for awhile now. A lot of those tools are seeing their last days...getting worn out:Ryobi is the way I have gone also with most things, but I was thinking more about one of the other companies. One thing I don't need is self-propelled.
