Love it !
Purchased two months ago have about 15 hrs on it. Runs great cuts great. Bought the optional bagger for it couple weeks ago very nice works good. The only thing that they could correct is the left & right drive control levers don't match up with each other when brought together from the neutral position no matter how you adjust them they're about an inch off which is not a big deal but should be corrected. Other than that I would definitely recommend. Great mower good price.

Troy-Built Z42 is a Great ZT Mower
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Product is great. I needed something that I could stretch my legs while driving because I can no longer use a conventional riding mower due to a hip replacement. I was hoping that a Zero Turn mower would be a good alternative to my Murray riding mower. This was a great decision! I have had the Troy Built ZT mower for almost 2 months and used it 4 times. It has plenty of power and is fun to drive. It came with a Troy Built 679 cc V-Twin engine. (That equates to approx. 20-21 H.P.) It does take a little time to get used to steering with lap bars versus a steering wheel but after the first mow I found it easy. The design seems very solid. The sturdy frame was one of the reasons that I picked Troy-Built over many of the competitors. The controls are simple and easy to use. And because there are no pedals to work with your feet there is plenty of room to stretch your legs!
Removing it from the crate was the most difficult part, although this is a good thing. It took me longer to get it out of the crate than it did to assembly it. The crating allowed the unit to arrive undamaged. Assembly took less than 1-hour. Both the uncrating and assembly were done solo (without any assistance). All you have to do is connect the seat, battery, chute cover, trailer hitch and adjust the lap bars - everything else is already done for you. Oil is already in the motor so all that is left is add gasoline and start it. It started on the second attempt and ran perfectly. I highly recommend this product it has exceeded all of my expectations.

Great Mower
I bought this mower a month ago. It is great in every way. Large Tires, good looking, quiet yet powerful engine. Cuts grass great. Its big and heavy. 20 inch tires help with managing bumps and roots. I just love it in every way. I even like the deep cup holder.

Looks good
She's a beauty. Can't wait to try her out by cutting some spring grass. The seat sure does add to the look.

Mustang Z42 Zero-Turn Rider
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very nice mower! However, if you’ve never ridden a zero turn before, and I hadn’t, it will take a little getting used to. Steering with lap bars is a whole lot different then a steering wheel. Takes a little getting used to but you pick it up pretty quick. It’s really fun to drive. Actually it’s a hoot! Great mower so far but I have less then 5 hours on it but so far would highly recommend!

forever
had mine for two years. it very easy on your hands and arms; well so what ? if you have regular riding mower without power steering you would know what i mean. most riding mowers will turn enough, but the best advantage of zero turn is when you steer it; it's very easy.
i rarely use zero turn on my lawn because it can tear up the lawn, but i do use zero turn on a hard surface. i learned to turn the mower on the lawn you have to do it slowly, and when you accelerate you also do it slowly.
especially for older people, the zero turn mower is a must have
