Good performance. Power of the engine is adequate for a moderate‑size lawn. Easy to control. The seat has good padding so it doesn’t tire you out.

Great on my 2 acres… Comfortable to ride, the knob deck adjustment makes it supper easy to set your deck height. Finished mowing nearly 2 acres in 1.5 hours

A quality built machine with operator comfort in mind. Ease to operate. Leaves a great cut and finish to the yard.

It’s ok ZT1 42 IP… rides very rough, the control levels at high RPM is too touchy, and it doesn’t like tall wet grass. My zero‑turn Deere runs circles around it.
