I've got a Bad Boy ZT Elite 54" with a Kawasaki Engine. It's a solid mower and mows great.

I recently got a Scag liberty Z and I really like it so far.

Heard really good things about the Hustler. I think as long as you get a good molded deck, Kawasaki engine, grease zerks to keep it lubed, you'd be good with any of the newer models, as long as you were a weekend user and not trying to make a living with it. I bought a Husqvarna 52", molded deck, 23 hp Kawasaki this summer. Put 17 hours on it and so far, it's a been a great mower. Ask me in 3 years!

Have been using a Hustler mini-z,42",19hp kawa, for about 12 yrs. By far best mower I ever had, got it after going through several of the box store junkers. These mow so much faster than the old style you may not need 48", smaller will be a little more maneuverable,
get in tighter spots and maybe closer around stuff. GL. D

Thanks, For the input......

the quietest on the market..Good reviews all-around....

My previous mower was a 1997 JD with a liquid cooled Kawa. It just got plain worn out (everything but the engine) and I was having to replace little things on it every 4 or 5 times I mowed, bearings,fuel pump, wires rubbed in half etc. Ran good and cut grass like a champ. I just got lazy and wanted something newer with a larger cut. I sold it to a member here, far as I know its still running.

Brother bought a commercial zero turn from a neighbor, 1600 hours on the kawa engine. His drive pumps have gone out but the motor still running. I cant recall the maker of the mower

My stepdad bought a 48" Hustler from a local dealer in Santa Fe. Within a year he closed up shop and his warranty meant absolutely nada. There are places around that'll repair it, but on his dime only. If you have a tractor and implement dealer who isn't simply a month by month store front I'd feel safe getting the Hustler. I also would stay away from Tractor Supply and Home Depot models. Their warranty is worthless too. I decided to go with a 54" Kubota Kommander simply because they are known to last. Our Alvin dealer has been open for 40+ years which was the real first reason to get it. The wife griped a little at the initial cost but after she got the hang of mowing with a zero turn she grudgingly said it was worth it.

The warranty is issued by the manufacturer, not the store.
He can take it to any Hustler store & get warranty work done.

Bought my 54" SD in May. 30 hours on it and it is a beast. Had the Kawasaki on it but pretty sure all new models will be Kholer only
