This is a nice, substantial mower but the purchase experience was awful. I live about 50 miles from the nearest Lowe's store, so ordered online for store pickup to avoid the hassle of dealing with third-party delivery company. I get home with the mower only to find that the battery is completely dead/defective and would not re-charge enough to start the mower.

wow
This is my first Zero turn mower and wow! It gets the job done fast. The pasture looks like a golf course.
This is a very heavy duty mower.
From the salesman Mark answering and explaining everything, to the cashier Holly, and the delivery men everyone was professional and made this an enjoyable experience. The mower is everything I wanted. It is very heavy duty.

Ariens Zenith 60 Outstanding mower
Purchased this mower a month ago. So far, has exceeded expectations of it's capabilities. Machine is powerful, but quite comfortable during operation. Frame is commercial grade, solid as a tank.

Since it is my 1st Zero Turn, took some getting used to, It replaced my very old Wheel Horse 520H w/ 60" deck. Pretty much had it mastered after the 1st mowing and find it much ...
