Snapper 2691020 Reviews & Ratings
spend more time trying to keep belt on than cutting grass
By Ronald T.
canon, Georgia
Review Posted 08/01/2016
Have a spx 42 inch less than a year old, I am going to get rid of this thing and buy a green mower because I spend more time trying to keep a belt on it than I do actually cutting grass.

Model 2691020 Lawn Tractor
By Lora B.
Summerville, Georgia
Review Posted 03/26/2015
I received my new tractor in late summer 2013. Decided to try it out. In the fifteen minutes of mowing the belt came off 4 times replaced kept mowing, Next use finally broke the belt, purchased a new belt only a few uses another broken belt, contacted dealer and was told to contact snapper, they told me to take it to my local dealer for warranty work.
I took it to the snapper dealer who inspection and added a flywheel looking thing raised up from the base for leveling?? When I get it back tried it out only for the third belt to break. on hold with snapper 1-800-317-7833, husband left message plus sent emails with no response?? Will continue to follow up

My New Mower
By Bill T.
Huffman, Texas
Purchased 01/14/2013 |
Review Posted 04/08/2013
Received as promised. Looked good. Problems, had to send to shop for repairs. Three weeks later (shops busy this time of year) got it home. Pick up and delivery not covered in warranty. Took a deep breath and took it for a spin. Well to tell you the truth, this machine impressed me. No hand shift, two pedals same foot, forward reverse very easy. Very tight turns, cost much less then the zero turn machines, which I would not like to work on. Back to the mower, quieter than my older Snapper, faster more powerful and much easier to handle. Mowers Direct did me a big favor buy selling me this machine for the best price I could find.

Review Posted 03/06/2013
I received my new tractor in January. Unpacked it charged the battery and decided to try it out. In the fifteen minutes of mowing the belt came off 4 times. I was told to contact snapper, they told me to take it to my local dealer. I took it to the snapper dealer who at a quick inspection found a pully guard missing and trouble with the flywheel kept it from starting. When I get it back I'll let you know more.

A Perfect Company
By Alberto P.
Casselberry, Florida
Review Posted 09/30/2012
I'm very pleased with this Company, especially with Joan P., a very professional and sharp person.
We dealt with a Mulch Kit for my Snapper SPX 2042.
Thanks again.

I love it so far
By Marc B.
Bryan, Ohio
Review Posted 06/10/2012
I bought this mower locally (sorry MD) and used it the day after purchase to mow 1.5 acres of very tall but very dry grass. My initial impression is a very good one. The auto transmission and the forward/reverse foot pedals plus the super tight turning radius allowed me to cut this 1.5 acres in about 1-1.5 hours and I have LOTS of obstacles. It definitely seemed to go faster than the 46" inch Troy Bilt POJ it replaced and exhibited absolutely no unfavorable characteristics.
I have owned three riders prior to this in fact and this is, without a doubt, the best of the bunch. I purchased a snapper for several reasons: they have a reputation for being a quality US made product and their manufacturing facilities are located in a right to work state. Plus, Snapper is owned by Briggs and Stratton now and B&S is another fine American company with a long history of producing durable intelligently engineered products so this "partnership" made me even more comfortable buying a Snapper because I don't think Briggs or Snapper will risk their reputations the way MTD did.
This mower is well thought out, intelligently engineered, comfortable, easy to maintain with its spin on oil filter and oil drain hose, and it cut the grass evenly and without issues. 5 stars so far. I love it. I'll update in a few years after it has been thoroughly weighed and measured.
