Looking to get onto a zero turn.Im coming from a riding mower but really looking to pull the trigger on a new zero turn.Options im looking at, Scag, Spartan, Gravely or Cub Cadet.Let me know what ya'll would recommend or what to stay away from.
I'd get the cheapest one unless you are mowing substantial area. A 42-48" is plenty for any typical residential yard.
Toro is huge in my area and I would say 90% of the commercial operations run them. I have a 52" commercial unit and a 42" residential unit. The 42" has been a great machine. I would buy a 42-48 unit for about 3000 bucks and run it for 5-6 years. They hold their value incredibly well. Do minimal maintenance on it (change oil, sharpen blades) and sell it in 4-5 years for ~2000 with 3-400 hours. Rinse and repeat. You'll always have a nice mower that gets the job done for less 200 bucks a year. Honestly thinking about unloading my 52" and exchanging it for a new residential unit.
I have never heard of Spartan mowers but I would be fine with the other three.
Have a 72in Kubota diesel zero turn, service for over a decade, does fantastic.
Pick your poison.
I bet that thing is awesome.

How big is your Honda mower?Ive been thinking of getting one too and doing a ton of research. Thing is. My yard is tiny. Takes me about a hour to cut with my walk behind honda but id love to be done in 20 minutes. My total lot is only .75 acres. So im guessing .35-.50 acres is actually grass. I really feel like im just splurging and it isnt a necessity.
But from my research some of the best you can get for the 3k mark are
Gravely-Ariens-Big Dog-Hustler. Same manufacturer. Hustler even has a really cheap $2300 option with a Briggs. Idk if id go that cheap though.
