Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

For comparison, as I was doing a lot of research, other similar specced mowers would be the Bad Boy ZT Avenger, Scag Liberty Z, Gravely ZT XL, and Hustler Raptor XD. I shopped dealers for all of these models this year, and I was not able to find any of these for under 5K, typically they were closer to 5.5-6K. The best comp at the 4K range I would say is the Bad Boy ZT Magnum, and it has sealed "lifetime" trans-axles.

Additionally, none of these will come with suspension - which seems overkill, but it's honestly amazing unless your yard is perfectly graded. Hope this helps!

I think the only thing I can ding the Stihl on is forcing the Briggs option and not offering a Kawasaki, but at least it isn't an Intek - and the price is more than right. I immediately did a test cut with mine and was very impressed with the low end torque for cutting, this mower is replacing a 24HP 42" Briggs Intek powered mower that I am retiring and the PXi was letting me cut twice as fast, with a way bigger deck.

The RZ 262 with the ZT3100 transaxles looks like an incredible deal for $5k after the 10% coupon. Doubt you can get anything else new with ZT3100s at that price. Thanks for sharing!

Yeah I don't think 5 is possible on any other deal right this moment, closest is probably a ZT Elite from Tractor Supply. Which is 6.

There's just no solid discounts on mowers these days outside of Greenworks doing their regular discounts on their models, and electric changes so frequently still. I can't see getting parts to be easy, and while it would be reasonable to put 1,000 hours on this class of mower, I can't imagine an electric one going there. (Unless you drop 20K on a real commercial one, even then, parts have to be crazy expensive)

I'd be employed with tall grass vs the other way around

Awesome, just got the RZ152 for $4307.18, incl tax. My local ACE is the dealer and said they'd be able to drop it off, too!

I've got about an acre of mowable lawn that I've been using a 28" dual-blade Craftsman push mower on. It takes me a couple of hours to do the whole thing; 45 min for just the front. I'm also lucky that my wife has been bugging me to get a ZT mower for years now, since I'm usually too tired to mow for hours at a time. By the time I get to mowing sometimes the grass has to be cut at the max mower height to prevent bogging.

Glad somebody else was able to get in on this price. Going from push cut to a 52" deck is gonna be a massive change!

I don't imagine the Stihl site has a thriving review community, and people with a bad experience are more likely to go through the trouble to post a review.

It's a Ferris painted orange, I have zero concerns about my purchase at this price. You can find people having bad experiences with every other brand as well.

I don't care how you paint it. A 1.3 is a 1.3. would you work for a company with a 1.3 review on Glassdoor?

Extremely small sample size. It's a total of 3 reviews. Chill daddy.

I'm also seeing huge savings on the bagger and collection blower.
