My bro-in-law had one probably 3-4 years ago equipped with the stand on platform. He got rid of it almost as fast as he bought it because the control placement/operation gave him carpal tunnel and tendonitis in the forearms. Dealer told him that was a common complaint with them at that time. Not sure if CC has corrected this issue on newer models. He replaced it with a Scag Turf Tiger ZTR and has never regretted it.
