I expect this mower will last several seasons with decent care wwwyoutubecom/post/Ugkx1VWTrayKBdCKAjzAcZ_Eg4dhHTae3LkN also recommend Also, I ran across the problem with it not starting the 2nd time I used it There is a safety switch which is pushed in by the chute or mulching piece being attached to the deck I took the cover off and it wouldn't start Put it back on, no problem It takes only a minute with 2 easily accessible wingnuts and no tools This mower starts up first crank each time and it is a joy to use It also mows in reverse by putting the key to the reverse area after starting and pushing in the triangular button It will stay in reverse mode until you turn it off All in all, for my homeowner needs, I really like this mower-and at 70 bucks a cut here in Miami, it's already more than 1/3 paid for itself in a month

What about maintance? Are the belts any more difficult to change on a zero turn?
Comment from : Chase Jordan

I pull a 44 inch sweeper behind my Zero turn rz 2454 i have a john deere 175 lawn tractor too but the zero turn is far superior to pulling that sweeper it's faster and more manuverable No comparison

Comment from : Bow Bender

once you get on a zero turn mower you will never go back to a tractor type
Comment from : William Hicks

The only problem is you don't mow in that manner with a tractor

I cut grass for 24 years and I fell in love with this zero turn best machine I ever sat on in my opinion it's absolutely the best mower on the market
Comment from : William Archie

Why does the lawn tractor last longer?
Comment from : Bigtymer1

I don’t like the yellow reverse button on the tractor
Comment from : bigal25938

Most lawn tractors are cheaper than zero turn mowers
Comment from : Gino Zizza

I just bought a new Deer tractor mower 42in cut and to my surprise it's about as close to zero turn that I've ever seen
Comment from : William Gleaton

Comment from : Clemson 7839

Didn't even have to watch the video Zero turn, hands down All day every day, zero turn
Comment from : anoobiss

No Zero turns on much of a hill
Comment from : Anthony Lee

No question you will be able to ultimately do more with a tractor than with a dedicated mower!!!
Comment from : Mike Hudick

My zero turn cut mowing time from 420 hours from the tractor to just 120 hours for the JD zero turn and whats more it’s fun doing it! I use the tractor for towing a trailer now and it does that well
Comment from : Digger Rob

If the lawn is simple with nothing to turn around , tractor but things to go around zturn , one would zturns would handel slopes better due to their lower profile
Comment from : Zombie Slayer8999

Also, the tractor is cooler looking
Comment from : Mark Redman

I pefer trackors Just me I had a Husqvarna tracktor ( My first ) Did good for the first 2 years Never was any good at going up small hillsI had it for 3 more years :( The 4th and 5th years I could not mow the whole lawn at one time3 acres Found out that the model I had a seal under power transI now have a Cub Cadet tractor Im very happy with Faster and It will go up hills Before buying it I test drove a o turn I did not care for it Just me I know It may take longer with a tracktor but much more relaxing To me the o turn too much work to control Plus I use it with a small trailer for yard workOne more thing I dont mow in lines I mow in squares A little better
Comment from : Jeff Pearson

I just moved from a tiny little backyard to a full acre of backyard lol i always thought a zero turn would be best but now I'm aiming more towards the tractor Thank you for the video
Comment from : gatulanos

How is popping a wheelie a con? It’s fun, cool, and a great way to clean a deck
Comment from : Montana White

You forgot to mention the most important thing! You can't drink beer on a zero turn!
Comment from : Drone Studios

Well done and you hit a lot of great points This helps a lot and I wanted to say thanks for taking the time to make this
Comment from : Pale Horse

Comment from : William Riley

Hey you forgot that It can rake hay I have done it with my gx 255 John Deere mower and it does it easy
Comment from : Jesus Garcia

Pro you can pop wheelies on the zero turn enough said
Comment from : Cedar Lunstrum

Would A 54 “ tractor ,be better than A 54 “ zero for flat land without trees? Thanks
Comment from : Jaleb Jaba

What a stupid video
Comment from : Mocha Tech

I have both a new z turn z530 r John Deere with Kawasaki engine 60 inch cut Ax360 riding John deere mower And finally a craftsman z turn with a kohler engine 54 inch cut I would say if you open area no trees etc go with finding tractor but if you have alot of obstacles go go around Go with zero turn A zero turn should be faster than a lawn tractor If you have carpool tunnel syndrome the z turns will make it worse Lawn tractors slow Z turns faster
Comment from : pyroman49 wedd

What about articulated mowers compared to zero turn and tractors?
Comment from : Salvatore Shiggerino

I realize this is a bit old, but I don’t care who You are, if your yard is not drastically hilly, get the Zero turn and You will never look at another tractor!
Comment from : Brian W

If you mow around trees,bushes, buildings, sidewalks and driveways this is a stupid question! Go Zero Turn and save yourself about 30 seat time and go fishing👍
Comment from : Formerfarmer

You have better traction with the 'Zero Turn" because the weight of the engine in the rear
Comment from : Dalton

As far as attachments, they do have front mounts attachments for a majority of zero turns, I know because I have a number of front mount attachments for mine I have an aerator, sprayer, spreader, blade and a dump that mounts on front Also you can mount a hitch on the back for most of these too You need to know your product before saying what a zero turn want do
Comment from : Mike Annas

Extremely good video very informative
Comment from : Jack Morris

I have both Mow with the zero turn and work with the tractor
Comment from : jedijoe1976

He made a good statement saying this is from a residential point because if you go commercial you will never ever use a garden style tractor for a lawn care business Also whichever one you choose please go to a local dealer and not a big box store For one you're not getting a true John Deere or whatever brand you are buying You're basically getting an MTD with different paint stickers slapped on to them They have completely different numbers and parts Plus when something goes down you can take it to your local dealer instead of having to mess with a big box store and they're long gone out ways of fulfilling their guarantee or just tune-ups I really wish people would stay clear of big box stores They really are not all that much cheaper and you sure as hell don't get the quality that you get from the actual manufacturer It's all a scam and I wish it was illegal Really pisses me off I'm not even a local dealer but like I say I have a business and I see it all the time Zero turn baby that's the only way to go Once you mow with a zero turn you will never go back LOL

Made mistake I should get zero turn
Comment from : Shawn Braian

Neither just get a good trimmer
Comment from : GuardianDog

1:56 Definitely a "Pro"
Comment from : Blake Ruble

This is a good comparison between types of mowers Although, the first test cutting long strips, you never back a lawn tractor up during open cutting You should make 90 degree turns over the course or sections of grass you are cutting Other than that, I think the lawn tractor is the best for Mr Homeowner like myself and others Keep as mush of the deck in the uncut grass as possible and do not stop unless absolutely necessary for fastest cut
Comment from : Billy Etheridge

That lawnmower cost more that my car
Comment from : Matthew Trumble

If you mow in "snail spiral" pattern, you don't have to turn arround your tractor at all, so it can be faster
Comment from : Slafix

zero turn is also much heavier and will dig up your yard or get stuck to where the tractor mower will ride right over where the zero turn gets stuck
Comment from : GiJo

Never going back from zero turn Besides stand up ;)
Comment from : Quantum Sword

You didn't give the tractor a fair testyou don't normally mow back and forth
Comment from : Harold Young

I was highly surprised that you said the tractor was better on hills I purchased a tractor several years ago, and my back yard had about a 20 degree grade The tractor felt very top heavy, and gave the impression that it was going to tip over (correctly, or incorrectly) I returned it and swore if I ever bought another riding mower, it would be a zero turn, since the center of gravity appears to be about a foot lower
Comment from : Larry Dommer

That's not a tractor It's just a riding lawn mower The other is a zero turn riding lawn mower
Comment from : NC1861

Another major downside to a zero turn if you ask me is both your hands are always busy the entire time You have to stop to brush grass out of your face which happens a lot if its windy You also have to stop every time you take a drink of your beverage Lawn/garden tractors are so much more comfortable and relaxing to mow with
Comment from : javman

I can still drink beer on a zero turn I can literally one hand steer n do whatever with other hand
Comment from : Jonathan Banks

I have a ZT2 cub cadet 60 inch It's awesome no complaints
Comment from : Moonlight Blade

What about the 390 tractor
Comment from : George Gillespie

If all your going to use the tractor for is mowing the grass and not going to multi-use the tractor like a sweeper garden till snow blower etc SKIP the tractor completely its old technology its snow rough riding and half as fast to get the job done as a zero turn In my opinion I bought a Zero turn 25 years ago it was a good one Woods with a 24 HP Kubota 3 cylinder engine and it has never given me one problem I also had a 27 HP cub cadet 54" lawn tractor and I ran the for a couple years and although it always mowed OK it was slow and rough riding as heck This morning that Cub cadet lawn tractor is gone and it was replaced by a cub cadet Pro Z 100 zero turn mower! I will never go back to a "lawn tractor" because they suck!
Comment from : Karl K

Pop wheelies and impress the wife Got it
Comment from : Fosty

I'll always go with a zero turn for maneuverability and speed
Comment from : Nathan

Enjoyed the Video with one comment In the time tests you are driving the tractor mower like a Zero turn so it can't be expected to compete When using a tractor mower avoid reverse and sharp turns as much as possible Keep speed up with wide turns and alter your cut patterns to account for that driving Plan the cut to be efficient with that type driving and times will decrease significantly The added advantage is mechanical wear will decrease Smooth is fast in mowing and race cars!

I gonna be honest I thought that was Richard Hammond
Comment from : Gabe Conley

I like F2100 kubota 60 inch deck diesel whit deck at the front
Comment from : God Will Lawn Care LLC

The seating position on the tractor looks a lot more comfortable than the zero turn
Comment from : Jim Dandy

Con- Ability to pop a wheelie That's a pro
Comment from : YorkyPoo UAV

John Deere offers a cheaper tractor the S100 It’s 2k and I just used it today Works pretty well
Comment from : Bryan Rogers

730 series with 54 inch deck lol! That should have the big boy on it and has more than enough power to run the big deck
Comment from : Larry W

Who pays that much for a mower

Comment from : Jim Lastname

have an old L130 and while I agree it doesn't have the manual ability of the zero-turn, it still gets the work done, that's all Also, zero-turn are very expensive now to buy it Jaja Awesome video
Comment from : Sergio Laurencio

Which one comes with you? Woof!
Comment from : Yarny Bart

What model gives a better comfortable ride quality?
Comment from : Gary Gbur

I just got my JDs100 lawn tractor delivered today People asks me if I was getting a zero turn I told them my yard wasn’t big enough for a zero turn so I went with the lawn tractor Either way both the lawn tractor and zero turn beats out a push mower all day every day, I’ve been using a push mower for the last 11 years but no more
Comment from : MEEMOSS77

I have both
Comment from : Pete Busch

I bought a 2021 Craftsman Tight turn T240 Lawn/Garden tractor paid a total $2,700 for it has a Kohler 7000 series engine 22 horsepower 725cc V Twin engine based on the Kohler command commercial pro enginehas a 3 year unlimited hours warranty weighs 630 pounds has a thick cast iron front Axle Tuff torque hydrostatic transmission with steel gears5 inch turning radius cruise control 31 gallon fuel tank so why in the world would I spend $11,000 on a mower when in reality it's not better or not that much what I already have and paid $2,700
Comment from : 3 4 5 Stone Cave Road

The zero turn actually has many more capabilities than just mowing You can attach dump carts, seeders, yard rakes, aerators and water attachments Even on some zero turns you can add a plow On the newer models you can even add these things
Comment from : Logan Campbell

Go ahead buy a zero turn and a pretty dress or buy a tractor drink beer
Comment from : Nicholas Williams

Great video and very helpfulOne thing not mentioned regarding the zero-turn vs a tractor was how much easier it is on your neck and arms to turn w/handles vs the steering wheel I'm 69 w/neck issues I had a JD X380 tractor that aggravated my neck severely due to the lack of power steering, and all the three point turns I had to make on my 32-acre manicured lawn Yes, I did more than my share of kidney-shaped turns to avoid the additional steering required for a 3 point turn, but 3 point turning just comes more than I liked w/ the tractor I have a Z540R on order, though I have used a Bobcat in the past and tested my neighbors zero turn The zero-turn not only is more maneuverable than a tractor, but it is also much easier on your body to steer, once you get the steering technique down As w/anything new, it does take a bit of getting used to at first
Comment from : Roger Woodward

Had zero turns for 30 years now, would never go back Mow ditches that would roll a tractor every time, just have to learn how to handle slopes Lower center of gravity on the zero turn will let it slide down hill instead of roll over, there's a knack to it for sure What used to take four hours go do is now half that saving a lot of hours on machine Much better machines out there than green ones in my opinion
Comment from : MrFarmer2345

Unless you have hills to do, the ZTR is 10x better They aren't great on hills, and can even be dangerous But - the ZTR is faster, and more maneuverable
Comment from : Doc Mirror

I have a Husqvarna TS354XD GT I absolutely love it, it's a little beast, has never let me down, and for the money you can't beat it However those John Deere 700 series GTs are absolutely on a whole other level! They are definitely extremely expensive, but they come decked out with a lot of top tier features I would definitely sacrifice my mother's first born son to own one!
Comment from : Jesse Case

Ever pop a wheele on a 0 turn 🤣🤣
Comment from : Feinauerfire 0245

Good discussion, great presentation IMHO wanted a zero turn but bought a tractor for versatility (it is 4x4 for hills, a blade for light snowfalls, and blower for heavy snowfalls)
