Average Rating: 4.4 of 5.0 Mowers Direct Recommendation By Mowers Direct The Ariens Zoom is one nifty zero turn lawn mower. At 34" wide, it's relatively small compared to other zero turn, ranging from 40-60 inches wide. Since it's so narrow, it can literally zoom around your yard extremely fast. You can almost consider it a wide area walk-behind mowers with a seat. A great replacement for lawn tractors that cannot quickly turn around lots of obstacles. Written October 08, 2009 Great Mower By Paul from (Tampa, FL) I took delivery and went through the process of preparing the machine only to find out the key was not included. Once that was resolved, it's apparent that this is an excellent zero-turn mower. With the mulcher kit added it does a superb job of making lawn care very rewarding. I am very happy with this purchase! Written August 01, 2009 Bad Design By Bruce Murr from (Walla Walla, WA) I had my mower less than 2 weeks when the brake locked up and I was unable to move the mower. I had to call a repair facility to come to my location to get them to release the brake. Unfortunately I was not at home at the time and it was a weekend. (They were not an authorized dealer) I was told that the rod that goes from the brake handle back was bent. They straightened the rod and charged me $126 for pick up, delivery & repair. Two weeks later it happened again. This time I took it to a authorized dealer as per Ariens internet site. I told them the problem and they repaired it. They straightened the rod and welded another piece of steel on the rod to strengthen it. Written June 10, 2009 Awesome Machine! By Howie from (Carmel, IN) I shopped for some time because I wanted a ZTR but not a large deck due to limited storage space. This beauty cut my mowing and trim time in half, and takes up only a small area in my 3 car garage. It has run great and been a snap to service. I would suggest the mulch kit unless you like a lot of clippings- it's a small price to pay vs. the bagger at nearly $500. The only problem I have had, which seems to be an extremely common issue, is a clogged fuel line which I was able to fix in minutes. (And no one in the family feels I am "Joe Mechanic".) If you own an acre or less, have a lot of stuff to mow around, or standard size fence gates to get through, buy this today! Written May 19, 2009 No Regrets By Sherry Zautner from (Watertown, WI) I needed to replace a 20 year old John Deere riding tractor. After reading up on zero turn lawn mowers I decided to give this one a shot. I was hesitant at first because my yard is hilly, but this machine handles the hills and inclines quite impressively. The first time I drove the Zoom34 I was hooked. I am one happy customer with no regrets about my decision.
