Also, all Rover mowers are now manufactured in China. I feel that it will take some time for the manufacturers to get up to speed and good quality products to come from their factories.
(Just as it did in Japan, with the Honda engines made wholly in that country). It is a shame about the Honda quality now coming out of China. [Linked Image from i266.photobucket.com]
