I'm not sure that I agree with the problems sited with the Craftsman. I recently purchased the 42" 22hp V-Twin Briggs and Stratton Zero Turn in St. Marys, Ga.. Granted,,,,, I only have experience with this one Zero Turn Craftsman. I picked mine up after it was ordered. The store set it up... It ran great, deck was level, oil level correct. I did have to do a minor centering of the Lap Bars. (bout a 1/4 inch). I have cut my lawn twice now, bagged half of it once, and bypassed my reverse cutout.. Runs straight and cuts great. Again I have only cut my lawn twice. I now have about 1.9 hours on the meter. But running good. Guess we'll see.


Edit: I do HATE the fact that my grass is growing SO SLOW! I'm ready to cut it again, or more specifically, get on the mower again.:cool2:

?????????????????????????????? As far as I know,,,, all Craftsman ZTR mowers are hydrostatic. Mine is a 2014 Craftsman Z6000 42" ZTR. I have a Troy-Bilt RZT 6.5-Bushel Twin Bagger for 42-in to 46-in Zero Turn mounted on it. The Z6000 runs great, and with the TROY-Bilt bagger it picks up anything and everything. The Z6000 and the 42" Troy-Bilt Mustang are essentially the same mower except for the Engine (Briggs / Kohler), color of the deck, and some plastic. If you're interested, the bagger mounted with ABSOLUTELY no problems.
