Husqvarna 960 43 01-39 Reviews & Ratings

MY FIRST RIDING MOWER.

By Crystal E.

Portage, Michigan

Review Posted 05/17/2014

I purchased my Husqvarna last year 2013 at Lowes store in Portage, Michigan. Very simple instructions to use . I also mow our church yard last year which is about 2- 3 acres and my mower ran like a champ. The only con is when the belt broke I discovered that the pulleys are all plastic and had melted causing my belt to burn. Seems like for the price of a tractor all pulleys should be metal or a more durable material for heat. I also discovered that I can mow my yard and the church lawn twice before needing gas great savings! I would like to purchase another mower for the church and am looking at another Husqvarna.

Not Good

Review Posted 05/12/2014

I purchased my Husqvarna after many months of reviews not knowing which one to buy. I finally decided on the Husqvarna 19 horse Kohler. I've never been so disappointed in a product, it has 6 hrs on it and I sit without a mower and it's sitting in the shop and they've told me its a 5 week back log. So my only hope is that they do fix it and I won't have anymore problems. For now I will have to pay for someone to cut my grass.

Review Posted 08/01/2013

My mower worked great for 3 years, but on the first mowing of the 4th year the rod broke. This is a motor that had the oil and filter changed regularly and the oil level monitored always. Now I have a great mower with a broken motor that would cost me almost as much as the mower did when I bought it. I thought I was the only one with this trouble but after asking around at several mower repair shops I find that this is a common condition with single-cylinder motors. DON'T BUY THEM!!!!!

Review Posted 07/27/2013

I bought this mower new from Lowe's 3 years ago. I was enjoying my Husqvarna pretty much until belt slippage made it hard to go uphill. I had the belts replaced and on the first use the engine quit. I checked and the oil was low. I added oil and noticed it running out the bottom, I think it's coming out around the engine shaft. I had to replace the bearings and shafts on the deck the year before.
It is a good looking mower but you better have good patience and lots of money if you are going to use it.

Would not buy it again.

Review Posted 05/26/2013

Mowers Direct was great to deal with so the poor rating is not a reflection on their performance.

However, my new Husky mower is poorly engineered or possibly improperly assembled. Specifically, the steering arms contact the main pulley when making a turn (both left or right) and now have almost sawed through the arms. So it looks like I will have to field re-engineer this so that it works as replacing the parts would simply kick the can down the road. I had hoped that in the year 2013 we would be more advanced from a design and manufacturing standpoint, but I guess I should have done more research and probably bought something that I could try first locally. Also, last week (2 months old now) the Kohler engine started cutting out which I would imagine is one of the many mandated safety cut-off switches departing this earth a little too soon.

I love my new Husqvarna riding lawn mower!

By Bonnie B.

Grand Rapids, Michigan

Review Posted 08/29/2012

I had an old riding lawn mower that finally gave up. I needed a new riding mower, so I got online and went shopping. Once I saw this mower I knew it was the one. It has everything I need and it was reasonably priced.

It was amazing how quickly it was delivered.

I am so happy with my purchase. It's comfortable, it runs so smoothly and it has a very tight turning radius!

I'm sure I'm going to enjoy mowing my lawn with this mower for years to come.

Decent Mower - POOR Assembly

By Beau B.

Albany, Georgia

Purchased 07/31/2012 |

Review Posted 08/21/2012

Nice mower, good power, nice features. Decent turning radius, pretty comfortable ride. Kohler engine uses oil (about 1/3 hash area at end of stick. Many relatively minor, but frustrating things to be fixed. Washer and clip missing from pin on one side of mower deck. Deck could have fallen off. Lights were not working, Wiring harness was not secured and almost into the transmission linkage. One bolt holding seat to the bracket, there are three holes. Not sure if there is any adjustment, but the speed lever (not a foot pedal) goes from 0 to full speed in about 1/2" - 3/4" of movement. Hard to control when mowing.

Very happy

By Jim

Review Posted 07/17/2012

I purchased this mower as a favor for an 88 year old friend who really wanted the Kohler engine in his new mower. No dealers in the Portland Oregon area had this in stock. Mowers Direct had it at MSRP with free shipping so that was significantly cheaper than we could buy it locally and it could be home delivered for a nominal extra charge.

My friend is very happy with the machine so far and is primarily using it to mow between the rows in his small vineyard.
I was impressed that is was shipped fully assembled and even had oil in the engine. All we had to do was un-crate it and add gas.

Only time will tell how it holds up but so far so good!
