Hey folks, just picked up a barely used Honda HRX217VKA for $200 at a garage sale. It's got the Versamow system and blade stop, runs like a dream. Is that a steal or what? Trying to see if I got a good deal or if I should have passed.

Larry, that's a steel! I've had my HRX for years and it's practically indestructible. $200 is a no-brainer if it's in good shape. Just make sure to change the oil and sharpen the blade before you really put it to work. You're gonna love the mulching on that thing.

Nice find! Honda makes the best engines, hands down. I'm a bit of a brand snob, but for that price, you can't beat it. I paid twice that for my mower and it's not as feature-packed. You're set for years, man.

Wow, $200? That's a solid deal. I usually go for the cheapo models, but I've heard nothing but good things about Honda. If I ever see one at that price, I'm jumping on it. Good for you, Larry. That's a keeper.
