I bought a Scag in 2012. It stole my wife.

I own a turf tiger and tiger cub. No real issues besides the common crap that breaks with using them on a regular basis. They are one of toughest and take a lot of abuse. Its more about which engine you get on them.

i have a 60" turf tiger with 35hp briggs vanguard
when shopping, try to pair the biggest engine with the smallest deck that will work for you
my only complaint is that i didnt spend the few extra bucks for the diesel. otherwise it is a brick-shithouse beast that will mow as fast as you want
i mow 6 acres of bahia 2x a month

The Kubota Commanders are better than the Scags, IMO. Wayyyy faster travel speed, don't scalp as easily, and are more user-friendly (larger operator area, fuel gauge, etc). I have both here in my shop and could walk you through each and compare.
ETA: I do prefer the Kawasaki to the Kohler engines

I have a 2001 exmark 60" with 25hp kohler. 650hrs on it no problems.
Worked for a lawn service that used scaggs, Great mowers, no problems with the ones we were using.
