Husqvarna Z242F 18-HP V-twin Hydrostatic 42-in Collection

Do a thorough inspection of assembly

Just did my 1st mowing. Everything worked as expected. Be aware of assembly oversight. My deck was 1” higher on 1 side and 1” higher at the back, tires were 10x overinflated. Luckily I did a thorough inspection and adjusted everything to manual specs. If I didn’t do this I would have had a very ugly and uneven cut. As far as the mower, I would like more incremental mow hight adjustment and bigger front tires, but still pleased at this price point.

Husqvarna Z242F Perfect for Me

This machine replaces a 13 y/o Ariens 34", so the wider cut reduces mow time, not that the 34" took long to do my treed, 1/2 acre site. It handles much more smoothly than the old Ariens. Delivery was prompt, delivery personnel were professional, and cost of shipping was surprisingly, free! It's taking a long time to get a mulching kit. It's top speed is a little slow, but fine for mowing. I'd like to be able to remove the shoot without damaging it when I get the mulching kit on.

I never had a zero turn mower and I love it. Had a hard time at first getting it to move because of some levers in the back and I had to get use to driving the mower properly. Other than that I have had no problems. I would definitely recommend this product. Now I'm actually having fun mowing the grass and saving time.

Bought one of these $3000 lawnmowers and went to change oil at 100 hours and the oil drain line was attached at the wrong end at factory and the line is in a 360 degree knot. Poor workmanship and quality control, also you would think spending that much money on a lawnmower it would have a fuel gauge.

15th Season Coming Up- Still Good

I bought this same model as it was 15 years ago when we moved onto a 1/2 acre lot. Change oil and filter every year. Grease a few wheels. Replaced Seat. Bought 3 sets of blades. Still reliable and going strong.

Leave no stone unturned!

After reading that this product was reputable and of great quality, I made the purchase. Upon delivery, the mower would not start! Uncertain if this a manufacturer issue or a retailer issue. I have had bad experiences with Lowes before.

Great Mower

Bought this for a yard a little over an acre. Does a great job, it's comfortable and the controls are user friendly. Feels well made and you can't beat the clear cut deck. I definitely recommend because there aren't a lot of smaller mowers that you can get with a good fabricated deck.

good zero turn

looked at a few different zero turns and decided on this one for my first zero turn and I'm glad I did. Got it home and used it right away, easy to use and cut my yard in half the time. will definitely recommend this lawn mower.

Amazing zero turn mower

This is the first zero turn I’ve ever purchased. I did a lot of research before buying this model. It took about five minutes to get used to steering it. It mows fantastic and is so easy to operate. The grass doesn’t grow fast enough lol

Fair pricing and fast delivery

Looking all over for a zero turn mower with these exact deck/hp requirements. found one at Lowe's and they had FREE delivery. No body else has a 42" deck in stock so we jumped on buying this one. It was delivered in two days!!!
