John Deere S100
Good Quality
Thanks for sharing. Nothing runs like a Deere!
Great value.
It is a Name Brand that is American made. Have not used mower yet. Had a very helpful associate (Chritina Dobbins) at the Oxford, AL store.
completely unreliable
after only 5 years old stuck in first gear, able to put in back in gear then the next year once again stuck in first gear, taken to repair shop & found out this mower has a plastic trans housing which overheated & warped, overly expensive to replace trans. no more John Deere for me, who puts in a plastic trans housing, seriously?
We sincerely apologize for this experience! We will be sure to document this issue. We appreciate you taking your time to share your review.
