Review Posted 03/10/2016
Great mower. My warranty does not matter here because our local warranty shop thinks that any machine cheaper than the brand he sells is defective due to operators stupidity to begin with.
Luckily the Ace/Yeager people I bought it from are honest people and they paid for my minor repair out of their pocket. They don't sell riding mowers anymore.

Best Mower Ever

Review Posted 09/12/2010
I have had this mower for nearly two years.
It is the most hard working mower that I have ever laid eyes on.
I push this mower to the extreme. It can mow a five acre lot on one tank of gas. It can climb almost any terrain....It's 18.5 horsepower can basically speak for itself...
In fact, just the other day I was pulling 10 children of 8 years old on a 12 ft trailer around the 5 acre lot. Yes, I hooked a hitch on it. The engine never quit! It's amazing.
AN EXCELLENT CHOICE.

Sorry but true

Review Posted 05/25/2010
I bought this mower, and after 3 seasons- not years- the automatic shift and rear end went.
The repair shop wanted over $900 to fix it, the tractor cost $1500, and that is my sorry story. I also bought a trailer and auger.
3 seasons = 1 1/2 years, summers only, garage kept.
I hope not to buy another tractor off M.T.D. Yard Machines. The dealer said he a one other with the same thing.
