@@HexaFox it’s different for everyone. I have degenerative disc disease and herniated discs from an accident. I can’t function after sitting down on the sit down mower. I’ve had the best year of my life since my accident 16 years ago after swapping to a stander
@@robertpoindexter8616 eh idk , we’ve used just about everything and i still use 36” walk behinds every day of the week. Just prefer to be standing on , rather than walking if i’m doing 25+ houses man.
I know this is not true for everyone. I have severe lower back pain. I have wondered for awhile now whether or not a stand on mower would be better or worse for me. I know for some people with certain back problems a traditional riding zero turn is better. So have you noticed less mornings of not wanting to get out of bed? That is my biggest problem. Both hard to go to sleep and hard to get up after sleeping.
glad i found this video. this is where i'm at right now, 57yrs with spinal stenosis, digen. disc disease with 7-8 bad/thin discs(lumbar/mid back/neck, and arthritic spine. my riding lawn mower 38" residential beats me up now, dread mowing (hell, any kind of yardwork now) but i have to do it, don't need commercial gear, only residential that is comfortable, light, and not have to bend over at a slight angle or major angle for prolonged periods of time. i thought about the stand on, then again, just modify my spring seat suspension and seat itself. i've never tried a stand on, too much money anyways for .3acre home lot. the only new riding mower i found to be most comfortable so far is a jd-s140 and up into x models. believe it or not, the murray m200 i found to be very comfy as well, i'm also intrigued by for some strange reason. maybe a used older stand on? don't want a zturn. any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks.
@@HexaFox i'm right there with ya bud, very hard to get up and sleep is a 50/50, sometimes ok/good, sometimes not, kills my energy too, very limited with it, weather affects it as well, every day is different not knowing what to expect, some days good, some not and just wanna stay in bed and that's why i'm hesitant about making commitments, some people don't understand and quick to label you as lazy and unreliable. half of my issue is damage, the other half is hereditary. protect your spine people.
@@jimjam1719 This is exactly the way I feel. I have bad days and good days and never can tell. I have noticed that taking over the counter NSAIDS can really help me get a good nights sleep by relieving the pain. However, I try not to rely on them too often because of the problems they can cause long term. I grind the hell out of my teeth at night and trying to learn to wear a mouth guard. So yeah it can be pretty miserable. Anyway I saw your comment about using residential mowers and do not take this the wrong way but that is a mistake. I have had both and now that I have moved to a commercial Ferris mower I will never ever go back. The only downside is that if I had to replace my setup now it would cost about $15,000 which is hard to swallow. Anyway my backup mower is a Craftsman zero turn and whenever I have to get something done with the Ferris I hate life using the Craftsman. The Craftsman only goes about half the speed of the Ferris while mowing and you feel every single bump. I can mow much faster on the Ferris and I do not feel anywhere near the bumps on it. It is literally a night and day difference. I also just saw you didn't necessarily want a zero turn. Ferris' patented suspension system also applies to their other mowers but I am not sure how good it is. For instance, my zero turn has four large springs on it and I believe the stand on version only has one spring between the operator platform and machine. I have been on one but not long enough to know if there is a difference. It may even be more comfortable since you are standing and the spring absorbs bumps from the machine so the operator does not feel them but I have no clue.
I totally Agree- Stand On mower is the way to go for all the reasons you mentioned and then some ..!! But like the guy said below .. to each their own .. he prefers sit down .. and who am I to tell anyone what’s better for them,, but I’m certainly in agreement that for me Stand On is by far the way to go ..!! Any amount of time on a Stand-On and I believe most would agree again for all the reasons you mentioned..!! Again my opinion- they’re so much more fun too drive .. every time I get on the thing it’s a blast .. Exmark Vantage 52” mulching mower and JD 652R MOD .. 2 great Stand-On Mowers ..!! Great video .. thanks ..!! 💥
New subscriber. I subscribed for the stripes. Lol Started watching your other videos and as a “lawn dude” myself there are something’s I totally disagree with you on but this one, I can’t argue with. Standers all day everyday.
I use a wright 60” stander love it I like all 3 styles they all have their own place but i still prefer a stand on I agree with everything you said in the video.
I used a stander for a couple days when one of our sit down machines was down and the dealer loaned us a stander for the time being. I really liked having the elevated view of the deck, and it was definitely fun and different to use. Both have their pros and cons, but I’d still prefer a sit down for the most part. But I’d love to have a stand on for those properties that are too big for a walk behind, but too small for a big commercial rider.
Why did you choose Hustler stand ons? Im looking at purchasing a stand on. JD, Wright or Hustler. 36-48" Any feedback on why you like the Hustler would be great. Thanks
I hate telling ppl I have one leg and I cut grass for extra money so I really do need the zero turn I see the stand on mowers a lot but I really can’t use that kind
I want to get a Deere QuikTrak Pro 52 stand on with rear discharge. Also what are your sunglasses, those are sweet, could you provide me with some info?? Thank you
I have a Wright Stander B 52'' and a Exmark Lazer Z 60'' (sitter). Overall, like my stander. The footprint of it is way smaller, nimble and light. Standing takes way less of a beating on your back.(unless your running a Ferris sitter with 300 lbs of coil over shocks) Sitters have some big plusses including deck feathering, able to hug hills and overall more stable maneuverability. Getting at your hydros, fluids and maintenance items are generally much easier on standers which holds a lot of value to me. They both have different/unique applications. End of the day, run what makes you happiest!
You couldn’t of said it better. Our lawn part of our business is small (2 days a week) any who last yr. Converted to only sit down. Huge mistake for my personally. Easy on, easy off, is completely underrated.
My lawn is on the fringe of being too large for me to mow without a break, it’s roughly 1/3 of an acre Ranch/Rambler style city lot built in the 1950s and I can hit it with my walk behind Toro in about an hour and a half, 2 hours if I take a brief rest before hitting the backyard. (Backyard is Buffalo, front is Bermuda, so I never do both on the same day unless my schedule rotation overlaps) I’m confident that a standing mower would make that like an hour shorter, but at my age (29) I tend to enjoy the work/energy it takes to do that every few days during warm season. It might be a different story in a decade or two though, so I’m just enjoying it while I can.
I love stand on mowers I've gone on some steep hills side ways with them and u can dip down low n get under some trees that branches hang as low as the mower controls worked for 4 company's now n told last 3 get stand on mowers they hug hills
I'm a bit "older", and I prefer a rider. With a suspension seat. That seat is a game changer. I admit that the stand ons would be better when you have to get off and on a bunch, but for me, riding wins.
Is there a bag catcher for a stand on mower? I’m interested in getting one but I’d like to be able to bag the clippings, west Texas is horrible on stickers and don’t want to spread more goat head around or other seeds that isn’t grass.
I have both stand on and sit on john deere mowers. I prefer the sit on with suspension seat. I don't care nothing about riding a stand on all day it wears my legs out for some reason plus their hot on your legs. They do come in handy when it comes to blowing off.
Ill never own a stand because of my back problems. Its much more comfortable for me to sit down, plus i stand up 10 hours a day at work. Last thing i wanna do is stand up and cut grass for another hour after i get off. You made very valid points to owning a stand on though. We're all here to mow, so keep on mowin'
All you can do with your feet on a stand mower is stand with them. While sitting on my Dixon one foot can raise the deck for obsticals and my other foot can raise the chute because I made a mechanism to do so. There is a longer list of good things about sitters than standers.
For a sitdown mower. The most comfort comes on a ferris. The suspension is amazing. Nothing else in its class. Full suspension. Not just a floating seat.
I much prefer stand on’s. It’s MUCH easier to focus. And it’s MUCH easier to control and it’s important if you are on a mower that propels itself, that you have something that is easy to control so that way you don’t tear someone’s lawn up.
I don't have to get off my Dixon to pick up trash. That is what a cheap folding hand extension tool is for. I can have a square pail between my legs and a branch trimmer with too, all easily accessible. If you sit, there are fewer branches to duck for and trim. I have 74 years on my feet. A little plantar fasciitis goes a long way towards wanting a suspension seat and not stand some more. I dont stand on my golf carts, cars, motorcycles, nor do I stand watching t.v. or car races or movies or auctions. There are a few good reasons for standing but not enough of them.
These mowers are the heaviest mowers made and will leave ruts or tire marks in any soft or sandy soil which is what Florida yards are made with. I would not let a yard service use this type of mower in any yards here for that reason.
100% these mowers are professional, the kind you use to mow baseball fields. I wish I had one, shoot it’d make mowing a regulars yard an absolute breeze. I bet I could cut the overall time down by a lot too because of how they maneuver
I don’t have 5 mowers so the length doesn’t matter, get a 72” deck and hills don’t matter because you can’t tip anyway, I don’t get off to pick up trash I mulch it up, don’t leave junk in your yard if you don’t want a mess lol, learn to turn and won’t tear up turf 😂
In my opinion. Stand on’s hurt because I’m 6’6. It feels like I’m working out my abs. Like I’m doing crunches using my lags to balance instead of my whole pelvis
Stand on’s are only good for smaller and tighter areas. Idk why people would want to stand up on a mower when they have to mow a 5 acre field. And second when you live in the south you get more rainfall which causes grass to grow faster and thicker stand on mowers do not have a lot of horsepower. Them hustlers will go fast in a parking lot but once you start cutting it bogs down. You literally have to raise the deck all the way up to keep it from bogging down. Just my opinion.
to be honest stand on is way safer then zero turn because if your going down in a hill about to crash in the zero turn you gotta brace your self, but on the stand u gotta just jump of
@@AdamBarber-how? I mow at least 6 hours a day and I’ve had experience with both stand on and zero turn mowers, I do admit stand on mowers have there place for a few yards but generally speaking zero turn is far better. I do like useing a blower on a stand on that’s pretty much the only point I agree with in the video
Destroys your knees hip hands look at Spencer lawn Care now having hand issues.. most of the people that say thier back hurt with a sit down has never had a sit down with a good suspension seat!
I use a gravely 44” zero turn rider, I can’t “stand” the stand-on mowers but to each their own.
Thanks for sharing this, great info
Right on
Everybody and their brother has a gravely, this thing looks kinda cool

All valid points, even why you might want a sit down. I'd summarize it this way: if your body can handle a stander, then it is the better platform.

Them hustlers will go fast in a parking lot but once you start cutting it bogs down. You literally have to raise the deck all the way up to keep it from bogging down. Just my opinion.
If you are older 40 years+ get a zero turn!😊 You getting up their in age!😊
My toro time master walk behind will look just the same and I’ll be in better health walking .
to be honest stand on is way safer then zero turn because if your going down in a hill about to crash in the zero turn you gotta brace your self, but on the stand u gotta just jump of
Standing desk vs sitting desk
Why would i mow standing up when i sit down . .
@AdamBarber-fd8qp i feel the exact opposite. But ive got bad knees .
@@AdamBarber- I agree with you, I use a 44” gravely and I feel like I’m 75 when I get off of it. It’s weird now that you mention it
@@AdamBarber-how? I mow at least 6 hours a day and I’ve had experience with both stand on and zero turn mowers, I do admit stand on mowers have there place for a few yards but generally speaking zero turn is far better. I do like useing a blower on a stand on that’s pretty much the only point I agree with in the video
@@AdamBarber- most thorough explanation I’ve ever read, thanks for sharing
@AdamBarber-fd8qp thank you for your response. And you also have a great day.
Sit down is 1000 percent better if u catch holds 5 times the amount
makes sense.
Yeah, man whatever floats your boat.
Cost 2-3X more too!😂
Stand on,sit down, push mower,self propelled,they all suck.I hate cutting grass.
😂
Lol, you won't feel this way when your in your 50s. I'm not standing up to mow anything! That's funny
You look like the evil sheriff from O Brother Where Art Thou
Dude how tall are you? Lol.
Stand ons too expensive
Stand on destroys your knees and ride ons destroy your back. Simple as that. Pick your poison.
Your knees are meant to bend like that, our backs didn't evolve to absorb load while in a seated position.
Destroys your knees hip hands look at Spencer lawn Care now having hand issues.. most of the people that say thier back hurt with a sit down has never had a sit down with a good suspension seat!
