Everybody around here either has a Ferris anymore or a Grasshopper.
Ferris is, according to several of my friends, the most comfortable riding mower ever produced. The main reason so many have Grasshoppers is because my neighbors sells and services them. |

My biggest issue with my zero turn is that the tires suck.
Make sure you get good, grabby tires. Otherwise, you're going to be doing a lot of useless donuts in your yard. |

Grasshopper mowers are top of the line and they’re made in Kansas.

this is my 4th summer on a cub cadet 48"
i mow 11acres w/it kind of small, but the wife likes the grass mowed short takes 3-4 hours keep the blades sharp and the oil changed...that's all i've had done to it it's a mowing machine on the flat ground, but a pain in the ass on the ditches and the pond banks. don't really care about that though, because she weed eats those. sec edit to add i'll raise the deck all the way up to mow the trails in the woods to my deer stands/blinds...pretty handy for that too

I have a Toro Timecutter and have owned it for 3 years now. It's been fantastic. I bought the grass clipping bagger extension as well. Are there better? I'm sure but for 15,000 square feet it works.
The only downside is I didn't measure the gate to the backyard. It wouldn't fit so I had to build one on the other side of the fence. |

gettting very close to making a decision.
lawn tracter, I would go with the Cub Cadet XT2 42" with the Kawi twin in it. ZT...i'm not sure which. Toro TC or Airen's XD 42 I still haven't made the decision on ZT or regular tractor. I live in the burbs, your standard lot; I think the lot is probably between 7-9k (WAG based on some rushed google maps measurements). Don't have any tress in the back, and only 2 in the font. no real obstacles to speak of. prefer fabricated decks and good power. FLat yard, no slopes. my initial budget was like $1k...; but I've been out of the riding mower game for the better part of 15 years. I don't want to just get a cheap mower just because it's cheap. I'm the type that maintains and keeps for quite a while. I don't mind paying a little more for better quality/service.

I haven't looked at the Cadets but I thought the Ariens oil filter wasn't very easy to get compared to other ZT's.
