I hope mowers are better quality than everything else, it seems like we live in a disposable world. You only get so many uses out of something, appliances and other big ticket items included. Its disgusting.
Well said!I have to believe that most 'commercial grade' mowers are going to be the most dependable and cost the least in the long run...
They will be built much better using rebuildable/replaceable components.
If you buy a John Deere or Cub get it from a dealer, and not a box store, else you may get a MTD!
I really don't think you'll buy a John Deere from a big box store and have it be an MTD product when you consider that MTD doesn't have anything to do with JD.
The MTD family of brands includes Cub Cadet, Cub Cadet Commercial, Cub Cadet Yanmar, Troy-Bilt, White Outdoor, Yard-Man, Yard Machines, Bolens, Arnold, GardenWay, MTD Pro and MTD Gold.
Distribution of John Deere and Husqavarna Low End mowers goes to Lowes, the same way Cub Cadet and Ariens low end mowers end up at Home Depot and Tractor Supply.
