Who owns a Snapper Pro with the ICD Cutting System? On a scale of 1 through 10,how would you rate the quality of cut?
Great reminder about keeping deck clean and clear. I clear after every third mow and usually the build up is staggering at that.I also give it an 8. I have the snapper pro s150xt. Cuts well but mine doesn't have any rear anti scalping wheels. Have four on the front. Don't have a problem with scalping though and leaves an even cut. The striping kit is only a rubber flap bolted on the back of the deck but it works. I believe any of the commercial decks will cut well as long as the blades are kept sharp and the under side of the deck is kept clean of grass and dirt build up. I see people complaining that their mower is leaving strips of grass, but they never mention looking under the deck for build up. If it's got grass and dirt clumped up around the blades then the air can't flow the way it's supposed to. Just maintain the mower properly and any of the commercial mower brands you are looking at will cut well.

That was actually my comment about the build up but that's ok the point got across.
