I'd Buy It Again, Easy To Use, Durable, Features
So Far...So Good...

Review Posted 09/23/2014
This is my first experience with any brand of garden tractor. I added the $50 for lift-gate service which went well...the semi driver would only drop it off on the curbside and didn't have time to let me attach wheels that i had assembled to move this up my driveway...i ended up attaching a 20 ft. Tow strap and dragged it up by the garage to disassemble the crate/pallet. The instructions are easy to follow for getting the tractor ready to use.
so far, no mechanical/electrical problems. From the start, using the blades that came with the tractor, it cut great. using the standard discharge chute attached (i don't recommend removing it like some people have recommended.), it threw the cut grass about 15 feet. after use, i first blow it off with compressed air, then hose it down.
after using it for a couple of weeks, i purchased and installed the mulching kit. does a good job of mulching, however, the mower deck accumulates a lot of grass on top of it...it makes for a longer cleanup time because compressed air doesn't blow it out. i've had to remove the packed-in stuff by hand before using the hose on it. the attached hose port works great for under-deck cleanup as long as you lower the deck all the way down.
when i first started the tractor, it seemed quiet until i engaged the blades... There is a roar that comes from under that deck! i have made it a practice to disengage the blades when crossing the gravel/sand driveway...really dulls the blades fast!
some garden tractors have a deck that is easy to remove...this one is more complex from reading the instructions. The instruction manual and literature are downloadable from the husqvarna website.
overall, it's been a good experience...so far...

I mow lots and several yards and I have enjoyed the versatility of the mower. It turns sharp and mows really well. I have cut my mowing time in half. I would recommend this mower and I would buy it again.

Never thought I would buy a riding lawn mower online!
By Earl S.

Review Posted 06/30/2014
After a bad experience buying a used lawn mower from a local dealer, I began a search for a new one. I never thought that I would end up buying a riding lawn mower online. The ease of use for the website, pricing, delivery options were so good, that I decided to give it a try. It all turned out great! Great product, great price, excellent delivery service right to my garage and excellent packing for a damage free product.

You can't go wrong with this one

Review Posted 04/23/2014
This is my third mower in 20yrs and it is by far, the best. From the start up to cleaning it before placing it away. I'm so happy. Turn radius could be better but the power makes up for that. Having the foot throttle is also a bonus. My 9yr old son has no problem operating this mower.

Aluminum spindles are cheaply made
By Mark A.

Review Posted 04/14/2014
Tractor has 181hrs and 5 new spindles. These things break if the wind hits them the wrong way. I admit to breaking 1-2 by hitting things I shouldn't have, but the other 3-4 broke on sticks less than half inch in diameter -to include original factory spindle. They are fairly easy to replace, but wow...I now use the tractor to pull a cart and drag the yard. It does that really well. I am presently looking for a better lawn tractor.
