Quality

Review Posted 01/01/2024
Very disappointed in the quality of this machine. The drive keeps locking up.
Must not have been checked out before crating it up.
Power Equipment has been terrific in trying to resolve the problem.
Provided resources to hopefully resolve the issue.

Perfect Delivery, Perfect Product, All Is Well

Review Posted 12/17/2023
Delivered without incident. Was kept informed of the unit while in transit. Came intact and with no issues.
Uncrating was straight forward and fairly easy. Some assembly (minimal) required. Battery connection was the most difficult bad design?
Added fuel and it started right up. Used it on my 3 acres, ran perfectly and without incident.
I am very satisfied with the unit.

I have only mowed about 2 acres so far but it is a great machine, easy to use, powerful, and a dependable.
The only downside was getting it out of the shipping crate :)

Poor Quality
By Tim

Purchased 10/24/2023 |
Review Posted 11/15/2023
Mower received not working. Linkage to the brake on the left side was broken. The mower was not sitting on the pallet, it had fallen between the joists in the bottom of the pallet, so I could not roll it off. Poor quality control. Price dropped the next week and Mowers Direct would not honor the new price!

Review Posted 10/17/2023
Arrived when they said it would. Curbside drop off. Crate was solid and tough to dismantle. Easily assembled. Connected the battery and started right up. Had to adjust the steering a little. Mows like a champ. Good power. Cuts thick grass well.

Mows Down Our Thick Lake Grass Like A Champ!
By Scott G.
Florida
Purchased 09/14/2023 |
Review Posted 10/12/2023
We have about 2/3 of an acre on a nice lake in Central Florida and this mower with the 26hp engine cuts down thick lake grass like it’s nothing. Rides good handles very good. Wish it had a gas gauge as there is no way to tell when it’s low.

Review Posted 10/11/2023
Fast shipping I got the mower in 48 hours and had it off the crate in under an hour and was mowing grass.
Everything worked great, I have a very bumpy lawn but it rode smoothly, I was impressed 😁
