I bought one of these mowers last week at Lowe's. Apparently, they quit selling them on 3/9 for some reason. I sure hope there is not a problem with them. Any input? Bill

As a followup to this. I called my local Lowe's where I bought the mower about why they put a hold on selling them. The manager called me back that some were found to have the kill wire incorrectly connected to the coils. After calling the local mower shop that was doing the repairs, I determined that mine must be operating correctly. They put them back out for sale today after only one was found with the problem.

I have had my Husqvarna riding mower for 17 years, it still runs and looks great.....I would buy another one in a heartbeat.

I took my 6 year old 21HP 48" regular riding Husqvarna mower at my house out to my business to take the place of my 13 year old 14.5HP MTD. The Husqvarna has a little over 200 hours on it with absolutely no problems. I decided to get the zero turn Husqvarna for my home since I have so many trees to mow around. It also should reduce my average time from 50 minutes per cut since it should be faster. Out of curiosity, is your 17 year old Husqvarna also orange? I was a little surprised to see that my old Husqvarna was actually built in Charlotte, NC. Bill

PS The regular rider has a Briggs and the zero turn has a Kohler Courage 23HP - I hope the Kohler holds up like the Briggs.

I just wish I could afford enough land to justify a nice zero-turn mower!

Mine has the Kohler. All I do is change the oil.

You might want to think twice about that. Sometimes I feel like an indentured slave to my yard - lol

I didn't know if Husqvarna had always been orange like Kubota. My neighbor came over to help me unload it out of my 1 ton dually saying he thought it was a Kubota from across the street. I believe the Kohler will last as well as the Briggs. Thanks, Bill
