Husqvarna YTA24V48 48-in 24-HP V-twin Riding Lawn Mower

Less money per use!

I have had mine for 3 1/2 years. In that time i have pulled a full size single axle trailer full of firewood with this lawn tractor and then mowed my half acre in a few minutes. Others must really be abusing this thing! I closed the mower with a aftermarket cap and bought mulch blades. They even chew up tree limbs. 😉

Stay away

Junk… worst riding mower ever. Engine is good, but that’s about it. Dropping deck is easy; getting good at it. Poor grass cutting/expulsion of grass. I bought it from a neighbor with 10 hours on it. Replaced drive belt twice because of trans slipping. First had trouble with reverse, now forward hardly goes. Grease seal blowout right rear. Looking for another mower after 5 years of disappointment.

48 inch Husqvarna Mower

I have barely had this two years and one of the cylinders froze, It only has 133 hours, What a ripoff.

I would recommend this to people. Ive had mine for almost 4 years, and the only problem was that the original battery died quickly, but was replaced, and now i am replacing the battery again. So four years and just getting a battery is pretty good.

Transmission issues - known issue

I bought this unit from Lowe's a few years ago. The unit only has 36 hours on it and the axle gasket blew blowing grease all over the tire - tons of grease. Searching online I have found this to be a very common issue with this transmission. "No Problem" I thought.... I'll just buy another gasket for the axle. I installed it and it cost me less than $10. HOWEVER - this RS800 transmission is not servicable! That is straight from the website of the transmission manufacturer - not serviceable. So, ...

4th year of use

I purchased my YTA24V48 in Sept 2016 and wished I would have waited until the YTH24V48 came back in stock. I have have serviced it each year with an oil / filter change, grease points, and etc. My disappointment is in the transmission: 1) plastic case; 2) axel seals do not last; 3) and 4) if the CVT belt or the drive below ever need replacing...removing the gas tank in order to access the transmission will be a challenge. Although I have never had any major issues with my mower, I still ...

Orange lemon

Bought this model in March of 2018. Worked good for a few months then problems started.....Reverse is tortoise pace. Both front tires have fallen off. Has been back to Lowes twice for engine issues. Going back again...wont start unless I wedge the choke open...runs for five minutes then stalls out under load. Last time it was in at Lowes, repair contractor tried charging 300 dollars for repair and didn't fix squat. Said they replaced components but same old dirty components were still in p...

Worst mower ever

This is the second Husqvarna mower owned. Have had nothing but trouble since the mower was new. This mower has the three blade system and an arrow shoot. Most of the time grass flies out the front and fills the top of the motor and all the vents on the hood and the rest of the mulch goes on your lap. One time around the yard equals a 5 gallon bucket full of grass on your feet legs lap and mower deck If the grass gets any do you want it the mower will plug and kill the motor. If you plan on mowi...

NOTHING BUT TROUBLE

Bought this mower brand new from Lowes. First Husqvarna I've ever owned. Was so proud for the first couple of weeks and then the pride when away quickly..Let say up front, Warranty is not worth the paper it is written on period. They will claim that every claim you make is your fault, therefore, not under warranty. Just wanted to make that clear. Now to the mower. Whats good about it. The engine is the only thing that works perfect and thats because Husqvarna did not make it. Transmission is hor...
