Added mulch kit/lift blades because I own a heavily wooded lot. I go through my landscape and blow leaves on to my lawn to add even more organic. Couple of passes in 3" deep leaves and presto...clean lawn ! Mower works great and easy to handle. My only issue is mine is four years old, son just bought a house with one acre of lawn.....do I give him mine and buy another for myself or the other way around?

    The mower was delivered by local John Deere retailer as scheduled with basic question and answer regarding operation and maintenance. I have only used twice and I'm impressed at it's speed and maneuverability. The quality and construction are great. So far so good.

    I have mowed the yard twice with the mower and it has worked extremely well. I have no complaints about the mower itself. Unfortunately, the delivery service was not as Home Depot promised. They pulled up, drove the mower off the transport, handed me the book and left.

    So many great things to say about this zero turn mower. First off, with the white glove treatment, it was prepped and delivered by my local John Deere vendor. It really was perfect, adjusted, gassed and ready to go. I've got 1/2 acre, and I was using a 25 year old lawn tractor. With the tractor, I had to take the same path and use the same pattern every time. With this new mower, I can cut in any and all patterns. Anything I could have done with a push mower, I can do with this, better and much faster. My only regret is I did not get the mulching kit day 1. It goes in for that kit in November after the final mow of the year. Takes me a bit less than 20 minutes, and the lawn looks better than it ever has. I have so much fun with it i mow 2, even 3 times per week. I do think it's am excellent value. I would buy again, and recomend to a friend.

              I bought a zero turn machine due to my disability that prevents me from using my feet and it has worked out perfect. The delivery was excellent. It was assembled, serviced, and ready to go. I started mowing immediately and it was pure fun. Operation was simple and it didn't take long to get use to the steering. I recommend tossing a couple of buckets or obstacles out in the open and practice driving up to and around them to master the controls. My only complaint is that it only came with one key and no basic instructions/parts list or service manual. I assume it is all online now but that doesn't help those without access. A great cut quality also.

              I was torn between this mower and the other one just a little bigger (can't remember the model, but it has 3 blades instead of the two). This mower has more than met my expectations. We have about an acre of grass and prairie mix and it tore through it at full speed without any hesitation. It was in mulching mode the whole time, so I half expected it to get gummed up with the wet weeds, etc., but it is a champ and had more to give even under those stressful conditions. I would definitely recommend this mower to anyone.

              This was a very good investment. I like the mower. This is my first zero turn. I'm still familiarizing myself with the controls and steering . I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

                  Excellent mower, at first it was a little to fast for me, as the engine is pretty powerful, the delivery person showed me how to operate it, it is fast , once I got the hang of it no problem as I had never used one of this mowers, have not yet performed the maintenance on it, but it sure looks easy, It is actually fun mowing with this machine. Recommend it!!!
