I have had mine for a few months now and I love it. I saw videos where some people were saying how bad Cub is and all that but I went to a local mower shop known for their good work that works on them and the guy there told me yes they are good. Not hard to work on. Last and perform well as long as you properly maintain it. He gave me some other tips on buying a zero turn as well so I went to my local Home Depot and bought one. Now some people have reported theirs was not put together completely or correctly so don't buy from HD. This is going to depend on your local HD. Lowes, or any other box store as to who puts it together and how well they do. My local HD apparently has very good people. It was put together completely and correctly and I got it the next day. Delivered. Can't praise them enough. Anyway I have 2.3 acres and mine mows it like a champ. I even mow my neighbor's yard because the lady is old and alone and I help her out with yard work. She has about 1.5 acres. She has the really good Augustine grass too. The thick Floratam type. My ZT1 cuts it like a champ. My grass is more like field grass. Combo of bahia and some type of wild stuff. I hope to sink a well and get proper irrigation this year so I can get the good Augustine grass like she and the other neighbors have. I upgraded from and old Murray tractor style mower to the ZT1 and I love it. Never going back to the old style mowers anymore.
Lawn mower batteries don’t last more than two years. That’s how they make them, that way you have to replace them every few years
I just won the ZT1 54” in a giveaway raffle for a local high school ag dept fundraiser. I spent 100 bucks on two tickets and was surprised when they called me to pick it up. Seems like a solid mower. Probably will last me the rest of my life at 60 years old lol. Hope so anyway. 🤞
I got rid of the plastic seat bumpers and replace with 3 inch motorcycle seat springs barrel type. Totally worth it.
I have a ZT1 50 inch cut. Going on four years old. Still have the original battery. Only thing I don’t like is that grass collects on top of the deck. Damp grass will stick to the bottom of the deck. My deck is in good condition. I also added grease fittings to the spindles. Other than that really pleased with the mower.
Put a big block 440 in it. 👍
i have a 2009-10 RZT 50VT…. this thing still runs like a champ at 840 hours i promise
The spindles are very easy to take apart and put new bearings in. I won’t replace the spindles right away without trying new bearings in them. Bearings per spindle ran about $20
Wow same here May 5 2020 model approaching 150 hours. So far so good same battery and just oil changes, I added the arm rest and fenders.
And this deck looks fabricated. Imagine what one of the pressed decks would be like. I think the 42” version is pressed.
thanks for the review! looking at this and the new Ariens Ikon 52-in ,
Had ours since 2021. Still not sure what to think. It does fine but the cut quality isn’t that great in my opinion. But of course I’m coming from a newer exmark. Used to mow but I gave it up and sold it. Got this for my yard. It sure does lay down some stripes though! I was surprised. Sits out in the weather every winter. I kid you not, every spring it fires right up. Haven’t had to charge the battery a single time yet. My 2019 exmark radius 60” would never stay charged over winter.
I Worked at Interstate Batteries for years so with that being said, the lifespan on a battery of that size and rating, all u should get is 3years, 4 years max no matter how well u take care of it ... I'd say for a battery just past it's 3rd birthday , cranking amps will be down significantly and if you brought that back to the manufacturer, they would agree that the battery is where it is expected to be at this point in it's lifespan....
That is one beat up deck. Gotta clean those off every mow.
I store my battery in the house during the winter and drain all the gas out as well. I had to change the fuse and charge my battery this year. The mower finally started and I drove it to the grass and as soon as I engaged the blades, the mower died. It won't even click when I try to start it. I've been watching every video I can, but yours is the only one with my exact mower. I'm thinking a faulty Solenoid, but the video I watched has a different cover over theirs- so I can't figure out how to access mine. The safety switches are my other thought, but again- mine are different than the ones in the videos I've seen. I'd appreciate any advice or knowledge you can give. Thanks.
I have the exact same lawn mower the battery is a junk that come with it I believe it's like 210 cranking amps I got rid of it and bought one from Tractor Supply 350 cranking amps makes a huge difference. Also how do you keep your mouth underneath mower deck from kicking up with grass mine takes up with grass whether I'm more wet or dry can't seem to figure that out it's a pain in the ass to scrape have to lift it up with my tractor and lay under it and scrape under the deck
Are you saying that 2 of the 3 blade spindles are already worn out already and is there a place to grease them ( zerk fittings)?
Do your handles line up? Just curious. I’ve adjusted mine every way possible and one is still about 3/4 of an inch high and forward. Wondering if it’s common across that mower or if I may have a bent arm from the factory.
Does your mower make a grinding noise when you turn or pivot?
