The people who say the mower is bad quality probably use more than it's made to take. The crappiest mower will last if you only use it once a week for a little bit of land.
very true. or they dont do the scheduled maintenance on it. Like checking belts, changing oil, cleaning the mower deck after mowing. stuff like that.

I've always said I don't care what type of mower you have, if you take care of it with a proper maintenance schedule it will take care of you. :thumbsup:

Midnight Rider is correct. Its is a yard machines. its a 36" cut, with a briggs 12.5hp engine in it. I love it. some may say that yard machines are great quality but in my eyes its not a bad mower at all. Also its really fun to ride around on because it goes alot faster than alot of stock mowers out there! :laughing::laughing: Also the bagger is a cool attachment too. its easier then raking leaves onto a tarp and dragging them:thumbsup:

I have found that most MTD riding mowers are the best for cutting tall thick grass (weeds) or once it is over a foot tall is called hay.

I believe he had mentioned earlier the red one is a Yard Machines.

I wasn't sure what it was, the Yard Machine is a good mower for the money. When I started my business I started with a Cub Cadet 1045 46" and a Honda 21" but I sure found out after a while why everyone was using ZTR mowers.
