I used to agree (having repaired a good many friends' ones).


However, induction mowers were getting harder to find (people
won't pay the extra, not understanding the difference), and
it was some years ago since I last checked the market and
bought one.


Was there not some EU directive on motor noise that was going to prompt
a general switch to induction motors?
