Kubota ZG124E Reviews

Never Got A Job Done In One Sitting
Model Year: 2013

I've had this mower for 4 years now, and I have yet to finish the first mowing job without having to make a repair/adjustment/trip to the shop. It throws belts constantly, spring falls off the idler pulley to the transmission, and it won't restart (usually) if I run out of gas or shut it off to take a break. The startup sequence is the most squirrelly and finicky I've ever seen, the frame has bent from glancing off of trees, etc (I mean, after all, it is a zero turn) even though the metal is pretty thick on it. It only seems to last about an hour before something shuts it down, and it takes about two hours to complete a mowing job in my yard (2-3 acres lightly-wooded land).

Pros: I'm thankful it didn't cost a whole lot more
Cons: Not reliable, no confidence in it

Great mower. Expensive, but well built. 0% financing for 4 years, 300 hour/4 year warranty. You can get a less expensive mower that will be just as good at cutting the grass, but will it last as long as a well maintained Kubota? I thought it was worth the extra $1,500 over the Toro's, etc. for something like this with all the extras like 0% for 48 mo. and 4yr./300 hrs. warranty. Just my .02 cents.

Pros: Well made.
Cons: Pricey.
