What A Beast
By Chris
Ohio
Review Posted 04/30/2023
I bought this tractor new in 2013. I have 3 acres. It is 2023 I just put a new battery in this spring. It was the factory battery... I do all maintenance myself... I have had zero problems with this tractor. period. One broken spring on the deck for the belt tensioner. I just put new tires on the old ones were worn out. I can't explain how much I love this tractor. I keep it inside and pressure wash it after every mow. I take the deck off every fall and clean it. sharpen the blades and lube everything. new belt every year.. she is such a great tractor. I put a ball on it and pull a 5x8 utility trailer around the yard with it and it still looks great and runs like a scalded dog.

Perfect Fit
By Priscilla M.
Atoka, Oklahoma
Purchased 07/14/2014 |
Review Posted 08/05/2014
I have a large lawn with lots of shrubs and flowerbeds so I knew I needed a large mower to replace the Zero Turn Dixon I had just sold. Which, BTW I'd never been able to use. My husband did all the mowing with the Dixon, I truly didn't like the dual handles and it was like riding a bronco. That is not the case with my new Cub Cade LTX 1046 KW Kawasaki Lawn Tractor.
The ride is smooth and I have more cutting level options, too. Rather than put a bagger on the mower I got the mulching blades and plug and my lawn looks like it has been raked when I shut down and park my mower. I truly couldn't be happier. I haven't had it but a few weeks but if it's performance holds up like this I will be one happy customer and would certainly recommend this product to others.

Nice mower
By James S.
Shelton, Washington
Purchased 05/26/2014 |
Review Posted 07/26/2014
I have now used the new mower for about a month and cannot find a single negative to mention. The Kawasaki engine is quiet and has plenty of power for my needs. The turning radius is exceptional and all of the controls are simple enough for anybody to use. Quality of cut is very good and I would highly recommend the mower to others.

Cub Cadet
By Derl S.
Lake Geneva, Wisconsin
Purchased 06/20/2014 |
Review Posted 07/13/2014
Received my mower about three weeks ago. Wasn't sure about ordering such a big purchase online. I was happy when my mower came in perfect condition. Put some gas in it and was ready to go. Had to un-crate it and I was ready to start mowing. Great power to this machine as I have some pretty steep hills on my property. Cuts great and runs very quiet. Looks great and I'm sure I will get years of service out of it. Mowers Direct was a great place to deal with and have recommended to friends. Thanks.

Greatly Exceeds Expectations
By Ron C.
Grifton, North Carolina
Purchased 05/28/2014 |
Review Posted 07/10/2014
Purchased this tractor based entirely on its Mowers Direct professional rating, going against my unprofessional convictions. This Cub Cadet is awesome. Could not be more pleased.
Shipping was perfect. Packed to prevent any product damage.
Good example of trusting the experts instead of your jaded views.

Review Posted 06/27/2014
First time out a small wire went through the sidewall of a front tire. Turns out the tires are very thin, $40 later I now know there are no bearings for the front wheels just plastic bushings. How long do you think they will last? Just plastic cups protesting them. My cousin was the head of the design group that made the first Cub Cadet, he would puke on this product.

Great Mower
By Damon L.
Claremont, New Hampshire
Purchased 04/28/2014 |
Review Posted 06/10/2014
Shipping was very easy and fast. The shipping crate came unbolted some, but very minor scratches on tractor itself. The tractor itself is a real beauty, mows very well. I would tell anyone to spend the extra and get the Kawasaki engine. Quiet and plenty of power.
