Mulching?

[flywindy]

Hi,
Does anyone have any thoughts on adding mulching kits on their mowers? Are they worth the cost? Are there any dos or don'ts , advantages and disadvantages?
Thanks in advance,

Mine had them, and now they are in the dump.

I do NOT use a mulching kit. I use mulching blades and side discharge

Yup, "gator blades" with teeth work best!

I have one under my Kubota ZG 222. I put it under there to mulch leaves. This is the second winter I used it. When I pull it out this time I doubt I put it back.

On the Kubota you have to actually take some of the air baffles out and put a different set in.

I just buy mulching blades for my mowers. The mulching kits are not worth it. Both my push mowers are rear-bagged, my rider is obviously side discharge.
