I’m in the market for a ZTR mower for mowing a residential lawn. Just over an acre and fairly flat except for one area that is sloped. Not looking for the cheapest, but the best value for the buck. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Going on 5 years with the same setup. I do 1/2 acre with mineWe have a Hustler raptor with the Kawasaki engine. Bought it on the recommendation of our Facilities guy at work (he knows his stuff)
Been running strong for four years.
I second it. I have a 2020 Raptor 52” with the 23HP Kawasaki engine and it has been great. I too have a little over an acre. I can knock it out quick. I can raise the deck with a foot pedal as well and the engine is covered by a big guard on the back. It cuts really good too. My dad has a 2021 Cub Cadet with the same engine and his does not cut nearly as good as mine does.We have a Hustler raptor with the Kawasaki engine.

Yep, I can vouch for the lack of quality cutting on the Cub Cadet. I bought one years back to mow 3.5 acres when I lived out in Blanchard. While I never had any issues with the motor, I was constantly having to work on the deck of that thing. Blades sucked, the drive pulley mount wasn't sturdy enough. It would work it's way loose a little bit and cause constant belt slips. Better mowers can be found, even in that same price range.I second it.
