I cut about 2 acres with my zero turn Snapper. It has a 64" deck with a Kubota engine. I love it.


Must be nice to eat ice cream as fast as you want and not have to worry about brain freeze.

No way I would try a robot. Can see having to fish it out the pond or creek. Be that isn't covered under guarantee.

The robot is awesome. It goes only where you want it to go. Lawn always looks freshly mowed. No work involved after installation except to change the blades a few times.

Try a sparten Tough mower and a little on the pricey side. They a solid and heavy duty, but worth the money.

Just bought a John Deere from a local Lowe’s, made in Greeneville, TN. That’s a John Deere plant from what I can tell. I have a 2 acre yard with no flat spots, lots of water and hills. I replaced a 15 yr old husqvarna with a 48” deck and 23 hp motor with a 48” deck and 22 hp John Deere. I would’ve bought the same mower if still produced. Mowed with new one last night, first mow of year. Rides nice and good cut. Time will tell.
