Looking for a zero turn
Posted on 8/19/16 at 12:05 pm

I have about half of an acre yard and currently cut it with a snapper rear engine rider but I'm looking to upgrade. Front yard is no problem but my back yard gets really thick and that snapper struggles with it. It's a 500cc 14.5hp 33" cut.
So I found these 3 and need some help with making a decision.
John Deere Z335E
Toro SS4225
Cub Cadet RZTL
The Toro comes with a 4 year warranty so I think I'm leaning towards that one but open to suggestions

All of the residential models are basically the same quality wise. Spend a couple extra grand and buy a commercial mower and it'll likely be the last mower you ever buy.

I have the 32" version of that Toro and it works well.

I have the Cub Cadet RZT 50, which is probably too big for my yard but I got it for $300. It's a beast and I've yet to have an issue with it in the 2 years I've owned it.

My Toro held up good right until the warranty ran out then it became a piece of crap. Got rid of that crap and pay a kid to cut it now.

I had an Xmark for 10 years and it was a great mower. This year I decided to get a larger one but the dealer went out of business, so I decided to buy a kubota.
It to is a beast of a mower. As advised spent a few more dollars and get a commercial one.

Just got a hustler. Very satisfied. Well built.

Had a JD425 for something like 8 years now. Happy with it.

I was in the same boat about 2 months ago - looked at all the home Depot and lowes models, ending up going with a Gravely ZT42 awesome little zero turn with tons of power.

e a Toro SS 4260 and I am satisfied with it. If I was only cutting what you are talking about I would get a 42" Hustler Sport with the Honda Motor on it.

I got a 52" hustler several months ago, and have been really happy with it.

Hustler Raptor, Gravely ZT or ZTHD for a little extra
Im actually looking at the Snapper PRO pretty hard right now, basically a ZTHD equivalent.

I have one and love it. That Kholer motor is the shite.

1/2 an acre would be a piece of cake with the 42" Toro. I was also using a 33" Snapper rear engine and bought a 2011 Toro 42" ZTR with a 20hp Kawasaki. I'm cutting 1 acre at the parent's house and another acre at my house with 3 acres of buffer zone (snake habitat) and highway frontage that I cut every 6-8 weeks. No need for the commercial machine, especially at the price you are quoting.

My riding cadet went under, it was so slow and took forever. Are zero turns faster?
Posted on 8/19/16 at 9:24 pm to Rossberg02
8mph and shave a few seconds off of the turn radius

Anybody have any suggestions for an exmark that seems to not cut completely level? There always seems like little divits on each row I cut no matter where I cut. I've changed the blades a few times. Mower is only a year old and seems to have always done it
Just the way it is? Everybody's does that to an extent, just can't really tell from the road? I'm anal
