    Best means of air circulation - can't do ceiling fans?

    Honda lawn mowers?

    You should be comparing the HRX217VYA and the HRX217HYA. The HRX217VYA does have the blade stop just no hydrostatic transmission. I ended up buying the HRX217VYA last year. I did find the handle more ergonomic but its personal preference. You should really stop by a dealer and try for...
