I have 2 and they are built well. I can mow 11 acres with one in 6-7 hours (lots of trees). I bought a second one when the oldest turned 11. The boys mow the yard now, and they can do it in under 3 hours. I had a Hustler 72" diesel and it was an absolute beast, but it was water cooled and the cotton wood would clog up the radiator. Had to blow it out every hour while mowing in June.Most mowers now use the same parts/transmissions/hydraulics/motors/electrical components. You pay an upcharge for big name brands.</blockquote>
