Husqvarna GT54CS (54") 26HP Kohler Garden Tractor w/ U-Cut

Was leary about buying online, but took a chance and I have been very pleased.

I have not used it yet, but I think it will do just fine. I still have my 9-10 year old one but it started leaking oil but I think it will be ok with a new gasket set. very reliable product.

I researched and looked at lawn tractors for 6 weeks - this model is one of the best values in its class! Ordering thru Mowers Direct was great - called, spoke with sales agent, ordered and it was shipped the next day. Very easy to install deck and brush guard!

My only issue is with the freight company - said they called twice to schedule delivery - never attempted a call - if it had not been a second email from Mowers Direct I would still be waiting! Had to call SAIA twice to get delivery then when confirmed with dispatch that a box truck was needed to deliver due to road and bridge limits they sent still sent a tractor trailer - this put the driver in a bad position with having to exceed load limits on roads and bridges.

The tractor came as ordered. Packaged well with no deficiencies. Everything worked accordingly. The only issue was a lose blade that fell off after deck was attached and tested. No damage noted. Would advise to check the tightness on blades. After several cuttings the tractor runs great and had a smooth cut. Very much like the 6 degree turning radius.

Mower was easy for me to assemble but for first time owners it would help to have operators and parts manuals. This is my third Husqvarna.

I said I would re-review after the season. Well, I am very happy with this mower, the tight turning radius is the main reason I selected this particular model. I am very pleased with the ability to make tight turns around trees.

I did experience some issues trying to obtain a mulching blade/kit. As it turns out the blades will either mulch or throw....the mulching cover I bought works fine but since the blades want to throw I have to watch the cover to ensure it does not become disengaged.

Overall, I am happy with this mower...it cuts, it mulches and has a good strong engine.

Roll Tide.

Good machine! Couple of issues. 1) the front tires were not aligned correctly and had to be corrected. A quality assurance check at the factory would have been nice. 2) I replaced the center blade grease work to a 90 degree because the deck would need to be lowered every time I needed to grease the bearing. That could be a manufacturer fix. l love the turn Radius, speed, and overall performance..

I like the mower, works well, nice tight turning radius. I'll check back in at the end of mowing season......if ordering demand any freight company other than SAIA.

I purchased the 54" Husqvarna garden tractor the 29th of April of this year.After using it for a few hours two of the plastic caps that cover the area where the blades attach fell off.i used it again a few days later and one of the front wheels fell off. I called Power Equipment and they said it could not be returned because I had put gas in it.They told me I would have to bring it to a dealer.the dealer said he replaced the front wheel bushings and I was charged for the repair.

I also wrote the supposed lawn mower expert asking how to replace the mower blades and the response was we have to get another expert to tell you that and they never answered my question.The blades are said to be replaced without using any tools according to the advertisement. I am so disgusted with this purchase and the way they fluffed off their responsibilities that I will never buy from them again.The repair dealer stated this garden tractor is so bad that he wouldn't even take it on a trade in and that the only Husqvarna mowers he services under the warranty are the ones he sells.

The mower now has less then 20 hours on it and it is a piece of junk?
