Hi mowernut,
As you would know I have been a big fan of Honda small engines for quite a long time, however, all my experience has been with engines made in Japan, which have all been very reliable; just ask any contractor.
I think a lot of companies are setting up in China because of labour costs, but obviously the various alloys and metals used must come into question.....as would quality control...Just look at some of the latest Victa stuff to come from that direction.
