Name the type I have had them all. Finally after I wore out the old rear engine snapper I bought the zero turn. Its the best thing to come along since sliced bread. Warning though. I live in the hill country and my lawn is steep in places. I was cutting along the edge of the yard not long after I got the zero turn and got to close to the steep woodline and lost total control. After a few 360dees down through the woods a came to a stand still. After looking around to see if the wife or kids had seen the incident I couldn't help but laugh. No one saw me. Lol. I had to winch it out of the holler with the truck. So if you buy one or allready have one be careful on the inclines. Lol

I wouldn't trade my zero turn for anything. Got 4 acres to mow and a lot of trees. Used to take me 4 hours on a john deere 425 with a 60 inch deck. Now I have a husqvarna zero turn with a 54 inch deck and it takes me less that 2 hours. Just have to know your boundaries when your operating it. I bought a cheap push mower to mow the ditch out by the road

When anyone says zero turn 2 words come to mind... Dixie Chopper!! The absolute best zero turn hands down! Not to mention they are made in Indiana.
