Slower than most 0 turns

drive belt fell off
This is my second review. After a month, the drive belt fell off without running over anything. Talked to a landscaper friend who says that shouldn't happen. I have a warranty and called Lowe's. They sent me to craftsman, who gave me another number, who gave me another number to find someone to take it to, then they would assess and see if it qualifies for fixing. In the end, warranty is a hassle and landscaper buddy is putting belt back on and hopefully it just wasn't put on correctly in the fi...

Too expensive for not enough mower
Would RecommendThe mower does its job but I wouldnt say it’s worth the money that it cost. It’s also very small in size. I’m only 5’9 and had to adjust the seat out to its farthest setting (there are only two) so I would not be knocking my knees with the handles and it’s still barely enough leg room. If you so much as twitch in the seat while the blades are on the mower will immediately shut off which gets annoying if you’re mowing over rocky or hilly terrain.

Happy with my purchase
Would RecommendThe ride and maneuverability is very smooth. Directions could be clearer and adding a seatbelt would definitely be a plus!

Make sure all items are present before they leave!
Received product and there was no key for the mower. The black bag attached had about a gallon of water to where the manual was ruined. When I contacted Lowe's, they said I would have to drive an hour away to go pick up a new key and manual since the Lowe's near me didn't have an extra key. Nothing wrong with mower, just Lowe's.

first time with a zero turn
Would Recommendit is quite responsive so I recommend puttering around to get used to it. It has a lot of safety features to keep me from killing myself. Also, I have 2 acres of 6 ft brush that it's cutting down pretty good. did a half acre today to get used to it and will finish up tomorrow.
