CRAFTSMAN Riding Mower T2200 with Leaf Collection System

Works great for grass after a little trial & error

It says its for leafs, but I’m using it for grass. I wanted more capacity than thw bagging style, and I already had a trailer. This just barely fits inside my Polar 18 cf dump trailer. The first two times I used it, it jammed quickly. Then I figured out I drove slower and only went over dry grass, it worked great. If I hit any patches of weeds that have thicker stalks or bigger leafs, it clogs. But I just mowed an acre of tall grass and only had to dump the trailer twice. When its fully...

Alleviates Some of the Work

Obvious that it is great for eliminating the raking part but you still have to empty this thing, which IMO is the toughest part unless you have a dump area that allows you to tip your cart and drive away. I do think it is worth the $400. My 19hp mower lets me know when it is full because it puts a strain on the engine. That is one specification that no leaf equipment manufacturer ever mentions, my point is any unit larger than this would be difficult for the average lawn tractor to handle.

Doesn’t fit a Craftsman LT2000 tractor.

I did not like the fact this chute that come off my mower deck does not fit. I purchased the 42-46 mower deck craftsman and it’s not even close to fitting. The actual leave catcher and tube fit my trailer so all I need is the right chute. No phone numbers in the manual and Lowes says it’s a third party product and they can’t help.

A lot easier than raking

Assembly wasn't as straightforward as it could be, but it works like a champ picking up leaves and grass. Holds a lot compared to neighbors who have to stop frequently to empty their bins. So far so good! When buying, it would be great if they told the trailer size needed. Luckily mine fit.

Discharge chute does not fit

This leaf catcher took 3 weeks to come in and not all the pieces fit my riding mower. My craftsmen 300 YTS is listed as a match. I was able to get it to work using an older discharge chute. Very disappointed for this very expensive item

Time saver

Does a great job on lawns but not good for picking up leaves from hard surfaces. I use a blower to push leaves onto the grass then sweep them up.

Works as stated

Works well on my John Deere riding lawn mower. I have about 2 acres with a ton of trees so leaf pick up is a nightmare. This has been a great purchase and has helped a lot!

Resident

Just bought a craftsman R110 30 inch and paid 1900 for it to find out that is rusted in and out all over

Collection system

Fits my troybilt 46in deck and fits my wagon. Works really great at collecting grass clippings and leaves

Leaf collector - good deal - works as advertised

Worked as described - easy to assemble and attach - works great for grass too!
