Cub Cadet XT1 LT50

Cub Cadet XT1 LT50 (50") 24HP Kohler Lawn Tractor Arrived as scheduled…actually much earlier than initially expected. It came in a fully enclosed crate, which protected it flawlessly. It started immediately after some small assembly and has more power than I’ll likely ever need. A well built rig with fabricated deck added to its value.

Great So Far!

Review Posted 03/07/2022 
I am pleased with the delivery and product so far. Because of the season and the weather, I have not had a chance yet to actually put it to work. The uncrating and final assembly went well. It started on almost the first turn of the crankshaft and it is in the garage ready to use.

LOVE this mower. We have 2 1/2 acres to cut, and this makes cutting a dream. A really wide cutting area takes so much less time. Powerful! It will not disappoint! So glad we bought this Cub Cadet!

Good Lawn Mower, Happy With My Purchase
By Steven B. 
Helenville, Wisconsin
Purchased 06/17/2021 | 
Review Posted 09/10/2021 
The only problem I had with this Cub Cadet is the uncrating of it. The sides weren't bad, but getting the Cub Cadet off the floor of the crate was difficult. I ended up taking a SawzAll and cutting the boards beneath the lawn mower. I needed more than myself to get if off the floor boards of the crate it came on.

Mower As Described Takes A While To Get Started
By Matt L. 
Plattsburgh, New York
Purchased 04/03/2020 | 
Review Posted 04/27/2020 
I read a bunch of reviews and did research on multiple sites before I purchased this mower from Mowers Direct. An OUTSTANDING delivery process and they had the mower to my house in two days. It was very well packaged, and everything was in perfect shape when it was dropped off in my driveway.

The mower operates well, and I was able to mow at a pretty quick speed. The mowing in reverse was a great new feature (to me) and really cut down on mow time and hassle of disengaging/engaging the deck.

The ONLY con to this setup that I’ve found so far, is that it’s a cold-blooded machine to get started. The cold start will take about 10-15 seconds of continuously turning over until it starts up, although there have been times where it still wouldn’t start after trying that long. Even when the motor is warm, I still have to choke it for it to fire up. I’m not sure if this is common, or if my carburetor needs to be adjusted, but I sure wouldn’t try to show it off to friends and try to start it when the motor is cold!

I’m happy with my purchase overall and will be studying YouTube university to see if anyone has a fix for the starting problem.

Lived Up To The Reviews We Read. Runs Well, Cuts Well
By Hank S. 
Thornton, Texas
Purchased 03/21/2020 | 
Review Posted 04/13/2020 
I picked this to replace a beat up Troy Bilt that cuts nearly two acres every week seven months a year. The delivery was quick, and the truck couldn’t make a turn into the farm, so he had to unload on the road with a tractor with forks attached. I uncrated it and checked the oil and gassed it up, I also used a few 2x6 boards to help mower off the pallet and everything worked fine. It cuts clean, has tight turns, and it's notably faster. The tractor feels solid. The only downside is that it's noisier. I'm also wearing noise protection. I'm happy with the purchase.
