Traction on our moderate slope is rock-solid without tearing up the turf when making turns. The cooling fan keeps hydraulic oil temperatures steady even during two-hour mowing sessions. Has saved me countless hours every weekend. Worth every single dollar invested.
Matt & Emily Reynolds (Knoxville, TN) (verified owner) –
The wash-out port on the deck makes rinsing out grass clippings with a garden hose quick and painless. The deck leveling procedure in the manual was easy to follow using a simple pitch gauge. Four solid stars. Reliable starting, clean cutting lines, and plenty of engine torque.

The cut height notches are deeply detented so the deck stays locked at the exact setting. The drive belts have shown zero slip or squeal even when powering through heavy spring growth. Has saved me countless hours every weekend. Worth every single dollar invested.

Starts up immediately on the first attempt every single weekend with zero hesitation. The oil filter and spark plug are positioned for painless access during seasonal tune-ups. Leaves the property looking like a professional golf course. Absolutely love this mower.
Pamela Morgan (Appleton, WI) (verified owner) –
Handles our tough Bermuda grass in high summer without overheating or dropping engine RPM. The blade engagement switch has a positive tactile click and shuts blades off instantly. Four solid stars. Reliable starting, clean cutting lines, and plenty of engine torque.
Brad & Michelle R. (Flagstaff, AZ) (verified owner) –
Delivery arrived on a sturdy wooden crate and the machine was fully assembled except for the steering handles. The frame is heavy tubular steel that does not flex when traversing uneven ditch banks. Could not be happier with the build quality and cutting performance of this machine.

A top-performing machine that delivers professional-grade lawn care every weekend. The push-button starter eliminates the cord-pulling strain on cold mornings. Four solid stars. Reliable starting, clean cutting lines, and plenty of engine torque.

The self-propelled drive speed dial lets you dial in the exact pace for your natural walking gait. The parking brake engages positively with an intuitive pedal that locks the rear drive wheels. Five stars. Exceptional power, buttery smooth drive, and top notch cut quality.
Eugene M. (Asheville, NC) (verified owner) –
The engine runs smooth and noticeably quieter than our old riding tractor. The seat slides on a generous track so both my wife and I can operate it comfortably. Could not be happier with the build quality and cutting performance of this machine. Works exactly as described in the specs.

Cut our weekly yard work time nearly in half compared to our previous walk-behind mower. The belt routing is simple and the belt covers can be removed with two bolts for cleaning. Has saved me countless hours every weekend. Worth every single dollar invested.
