S170
Bought the mower in Oct. It looked like it sat outside for the entire summer. Seat was full of mildew and cracked, the engine had rust and everything looked like it was used and returned.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We appreciate you taking the time to let us know and we'll be certain to document this issue.
After delivery push is rod to activate PTO
The tractor is efficient and very easy to use
Thanks for your review. We appreciate your comments!
Know what will be delivered
Delivery action was shifted to another store. That store forgot one part and it took several calls to finally have it delivered. They at least gave me a small credit off the delivery charge.
Thanks for taking the time to share your experience. Your feedback is important to us.
Waiting on a replacement..
I had to return my S170 because the PTO was not working. The mower also was delivered without any paperwork or manuals. It was also missing the left brake pedal pad and the battery had not been properly secured or charged. Now I’m waiting on a replacement which seems difficult to do for Lowe’s. Not a great experience.
We sincerely apologize for this experience! We will be sure to document this issue. We appreciate you taking your time to share your review.
Perfect Mower from John Deere
Mower is awesome. Plenty of power and does an amazing job.
Thanks for sharing. Nothing runs like a Deere!
Very clean cutting lawn tractor / easy to start
I love this Lawn Tractor / just paid $100.00 more than I should have / When I got home with the tractor and raised the seat the price on the sticker under the seat was $100.00 dollars less than I paid
Thanks for the feedback.
