Summary: Lot of features for the money but not worth it! 2003-10-05
Comment: This mower is nearly $600 less than the nearest competitor which. Makes it appealing to the budget buyer. BUYER BEWARE!!! I bought this mower new in April and mowed with it for 5 weeks before the right hand hydro went out. It was in the shop for an additional 5 weeks. When I finally got it back I had the pleasure of using it another 3 times before it was stolen. The belt constantly came off for no reason. I could mow in 18" tall grass for an hour and it would stay put but it would come off mowing 4" grass. I struggled for hours trying to get the belt to stay on for any period of time. Finally I took the belt covers off and figured out how to get the belt back on in a few seconds. JUST WHAT YOU WANT TO BE DOING WITH A BRAND NEW $2800 MOWER RIGHT? Also the rear tires are too small to go uphill(they spin like crazy). Whoever stole this mower got themselves a gem. I would strongly urge you to look elsewhere! Like the old saying goes you get what you pay for!

Comment: There's a reason its $$$ cheaper than the nearest competitor. I bought one and put 4 hours on it before I returned it to the store for a refund.The IZT drive system is weak. The drive system has one box that contains both pump and wheel motor with a lot of aluminum parts inside. That was what failed on mine after mowing twice with it. Something went wrong with the right-hand side transmission, the thing would only travel in circles. It would run good until it got hot (~ about 30-45 minutes) then it would slow down and make some terrible noises. The deck adjustment system and the height indicator are a joke. The indicator went missing after the first 30 minutes of use, it just fell off. I did find it before I ran over it and stuck it back on. Its poorly designed - when you sit on the seat with the engine running, the seat pushed the plastic shround on the engine against the flywheel and it shaved part of the shroud away. I'm a huge fan of B&S engines but when you pointed this mower uphill the engine started missing and burned enough oil to emit a huge cloud of blue smoke - no mosquitoes here. I took it back to the store and got a refund. Then I spent another $1000 and bought a Simplicity ZT1844 with a Kohler, BDP-10 pumps and seperate wheel motors. The Simplicity is a mowing machine.
