I've always assumed Scag mowers were top of the line - one of the best that you could buy. While chewing the fat with a friend, I realized I have nothing more than my opinion to back up that assertion. So....am I correct? Do Scags have issues? I am not currently looking for a ZT mower, this is just for my own information.

Of course all mowers have issues over time especially if abused.

But the Scags that I worked on have been fairly robust. As have been JD and Hustler Super Zs.

Great mowers but expensive. What isn't expensive these days?

All commercial grade mowers are good mowers unless they have been abused and servicing has been neglected.

These mowers are made by SCAG power equipment in Austin TX and not some other 3rd party private label company like many other units are made.

I tend to favor Bad Boy mowers as a comparison for a similar quality-built unit.
