The HD "house" brand is either Husky, HDX, or Workforce.
HD and Walmart have price points that manufacturers agree to .Therefore,the quality of these items may be a bit less.
For example,HD's Delta,Moen,Kohler etc product lines.
Might be different with the mowers but if the cost of the Honda mower is much cheaper than the Honda mower dealer...
