 B&S are typically cheap. The Vangaurds are ok, but not as good as a CH Kohler in my opinion. Kawasaki, are ok till they break, then they break the bank to fix. Plus, don't seem to make enough power. Honda..... they make 4 wheelers, motorcycles and cars. Oh sure, they make a good motor, but again..... PARTS. This is all just my opinion. And you know what they say about those! I work on a lot of small engines, and I prefer Kohler or Kubota for my stuff. Just can't beat a Kohler when it comes to longevity and torque. Kubota, well, they build the best diesels, and their gas engines were pretty good too. Out of all the motors I look at whether they can be rebuilt. Fact is, not many can be anymore. Run it till it's done and throw it away. I really like the K series because they can be rebuilt. (I know they aren't big enough for a SGT.) Kubota's can be. Honestly it's really hard to rebuild the KT's, Mag's and the CH series. It can be done, but they are tricky. Ok, I'm done.....

They all have their good points and bad points. diesel is nice but need to be plugged in or kept warm in the winter. after the winter we just had up here I don't know id I'd want one anymore, but they are pretty easy on fuel and if cared for last a pretty long time. I do kind of wonder what directions small diesels and emissions will be headed. I never thought I'd see the day that an exhaust specialist would be a hi tech job in the diesel world.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
