^^^  Well, what I'm trying to say is that the Honda will not cut close enough to a tree or fence, because the deck material is about an inch wide. So it leaves an inch wide strip uncut around a tree.

My Yardman has a thinner metal deck that cuts right up against trees and fences.

how is the 875 series different?

It's an OHV engine, more modern....as opposed to the older technology L head like the particular 700 series mentioned earlier in this thread.  Also has more torque.  Some versions (like the one on some John Deere mowers) have pressurized lubrication w/spin-on oil filter.  I don't think that Snapper is using that version though.
