The user who started this thread (wanting a larger mower but his boss wouldn't pay for it) said he bought a Lesco 32 for $500 (he wrote a visitor message to me). I told him to post a pic of it here, so hopefully he does.

You know what a lesco mower is don't you?

Yes....a walk-behind....pretty much John Deere, why?


Yea I think JD owns them now or they did but I don't believe they sell them anymore. People said the Lesco was a Cub Cadet painted green. I believe that it was originally made by Cub Cadet. I'd like to see a picture of the Lesco. Here's a write up.


Cub Cadet Zero Turn Mowers: Review of Lesco Z-Two

The Cub Cadet zero turn mowers are the same as the Lesco Z-Two. Don't get confused by the Z-Two's green color. While Lescoç—´ main business is fertilizer, it resells the Cub Cadet mower under the Lesco brand name and a green coat of paint.
If you plan on buying a Lesco Z-Two mower, Lesco has been bought out by John Deere Landscapes. Many stores no longer sell mowers or do repairs. They are focusing on just selling chemicals and landscape materials. Parts availability and service could be an issue.

Oh, I didn't know they are the same as Cub Cadets.
Here is a general picture of a Lesco walk-behind until user Dale hawley and associate posts a pic of his.

My guess would be the Cub Cadet Version. That's not to say that the Lesco isn't a real good mower.

I would like to hear how he likes it if he gets to use it a couple times, and I also would like to see the picture of it. Hopefully he logs back into LMF so he can see our posts.

I don't believe you can but either the I series Cub Cadet or the JD zero turn tractors anymore, at least there not listed on there sites.

They have not made the zero turn John Deere SST since 2003.
