I Live on 1 acre but use the surrounding 3 acres. I have an agreement that I keep them mower during growing season. My issue is I have used 3 riding mowers now and all have broken down and not holding up. I have mine in the repair shop now again and saying the transmission has gone out... Im trying to find somthing reliable or a zero turn Im new to mowing larger areas... I plan on at tax time buying a mower with a budget of $3000. I would also consider a compact tractor... please give your opinions...

What kind of brush you have growing? Mainly grass? Small shrubs? I have a John Deere riding mower that’s great I think I’ve had it for about 2 years now and I only just replaced the blade due to the edges started bending up. If it’s thicker shrubs and grass a small tractor with a shredder always works!

We have a 2006 Husqvarna 46” Koehler replaced the motor around 250 hours due to a design flaw. Mower has about 450 hours total. It has been seriously abused but only replaced the belt once and a couple sets of blades. Did have to do some welding repair on the deck due to slamming the mower into the vertical pipe on the fence line.
My next mower will be another husqvarna.
