More mower advice

Hello fellow forum members! So I'm in the market for a new mower and currently narrowed it down to the viking mb655 or the rover procut 20, does anyone have any experience with either of these mowers bagging wet grass (lovely welsh summers), parts availability and so on? Or any alternative to consider up to £800. Cheers for any help.

Viking all day long ....have 4 vikings amongst others and for being user friendly, easy to repair and parts are cheap also excellent for damp grass collecting .

The plastic box is great for keeping airflow going but can be arkward when emptying but you can get a traditional cloth box has optional.

Only issue's are the variable speed pulley if abused but a 5 minute job to replace and approx £35.
