Zero turn mower suggestions.

I love my Kubota Kommander

[elhefe]

I've owned a Hustler for over a year. Love it thus far

Another vote for Kubota, have a ZG227A with 54 inch deck. No problems ever.

Hustler raptor SD 54 for me. Had it roughly a year and has 25 hours on it and has been flawless.

Mine had a Kawasaki engine.

Might do a "Search" on this topic. Been several recent threads. You'll get a bunch of good options. Do your research, it's your money.

Kubota 60'' diesel here also love it !

Things to look for based on my adventures in Z-mower buying:

Kawasaki Engine
Welded deck not stamped
beverage holder

There were a couple of others things I can't remember.

I went with a Hustler

Thats really all you need to know, in that order. Although Ive found it somewhat difficult to drink beer on the zero turn. Yove either got to stop for a sip or take the risk of turning off course, either one will mess up lap times which is my main motivation.

The commercial mowers are quite a bit more expensive, but over their normal lifetime, they WILL be cheaper to own and operate... Most of the major brands are just fine... I mow about 3 1/2 acres with a John Deer ZR920M with a 52" deck. It is a mowing son of a gun too. I put LED lights front and side... that's pretty nice in July/August/September when it's blazing hot outside... I can mow at night when it's cooler...

When you're looking some things to look for beside what has already been posted above is a mowing deck that actually has grease fittings so you can grease 'em, same with the front wheels. The frame and front end needs to be cast not stamped out/bent flat metal bars... The anti-rollover device should be easily lowered (or removed if you're the only one that will be operating it). Generally, if you go to Lowe's/Home Depot and look at their ZTR Mowers, you'll see the cheapies, even in the name brands... If your budget will handle it, go get it from a mower shop or ranch/farm/tractor place... There's a world of difference in the Box Store specials and the commercial mowers.

I'm very happy with my Big Dog Stout MP with Kawi engine.

[KCarter]

I have a Husqvarna that I'm not too crazy about. Everybody I know that has a Cub Cadet has problems with it.

Scagg 61"

That's the only drawback to a zero turn, but with some practice one hand operation can be achieved. My yard is big, so lots of straight aways. Turns still require two hands.

I was just looking at the Hustler Raptor today! Welded 60" deck and 26 hp Kohler. $4500. Didn't see a Kawasaki option.

Never heard of them til today. Nearly bought it but decided to research it first.

I have a husqvarna with a 60" deck. It is a mowing machine. I've had it for 3 yrs now. When it wears out I'm going with a John Deere commercial. My neighbors on each side of me have the same one. A world of difference between mine.
