It really wasn't close. No I got ego's best my work and I had Honda HRX best mower, so it was an apples to apples. Comparison, the ego crushed the Honda in every way, except for 2, which don't matter to most people. One, the back size is a little smaller and to the Honda 4 wheels. Each wheel is adjustable independently, whereas The ego all four wheels are adjusted at once, but as far as cutting bagging ease of use everything else, the ego crush to honda.I haven't missed it
