Ariens MaxZoom2560® (60") 25-HP Zero Turning Radius Lawn Mower

Installing bagger unit was easy but i'm a fair mechanic. Its a lot heavier then I expected. Which is a good thing. Counter weight bracket holes did not line up so I had to do a little drilling. All in all it took about two hours to install. Works great so far and saving me a lot of time.

Instructions are clear and concise. Need to be a fair mechanic and strong enough to handle the heavy parts. A little disappointed the belt cover is plastic and not steel. Its doing the job just worry what will happen to it if the belt brakes.

Well built and very easy to maintain.

Our family recently moved from the city to an old farmhouse on 10 acres. Quite a culture shock, but a good one. The kids really love it.

I could mow my old lawn with a 22" push mower in about 45 minutess, but the new place is far too large & the grass grows too fast to keep up with using the old methods.

So, that is why this Ariens MaxZoom2560 with the 60" deck is just the ticket. Using it's 3 blade deck, it can mow at up to 8 miles per hour. A traditional lawn tractor can only go 1-2 mph.

This means that I can cut my lawn in one third to one half the time! And the increased maneuverability of a zero-turn mower means eliminating most of the trimming too- another big time saver.

Sure it was more expensive than the weekly bargain model at the local "home center", but this near-commercial mower will last me until they put me out to pasture.
