My advice to anyone looking at a Lowes/Home Depot john deere: skip it and go straight to the dealer and get a X350 (or other x series mower). Much higher quality, and you dont have to deal with a junk briggs engine.

Well I guess this is technically an off road vehicle....I had to check the calendar to make sure it wasn’t April fools day or something 😂

Just purchased x350 today.Love it ! My old John Deere was 14 yrs old with 3200 hrs, yes thats right 3200 hrs.so I can’t complain.Gona take deck off of it, the engine still runs good gona use it to pull wagon to move things around.Have had great luck with JD mowers.

Great job on your reviews. After watching your snow blower review I went out and bought a X390. It's not here yet, the dealer I bought it from said that the snow blower would be in stock the first week of October. I totally wanted to get a machine with a locking differential, but as you said, it was a lot more money. I'm nervous and excited all at the same time, my driveway is on an incline. Again, great job, stay safe!

Excellent review. I really enjoyed your simple explanations of all the features. I am thinking of purchasing the X350R with the mulch kit and rear collector box.

I'm going to get a x350 this video sold it. Thank You!

Just bought a 2020 x350 48". Absolutely, love it. I traded in my 12 yr old Cub Cadet LT 1045 that finally gave up the ghost

Fantastic video my friend. Very informative. I am currently getting ready to pull the trigger on buying a new x350 and like you I am concerned about not having a locking differential. I'm down here in the Smoky Mountains northeastern Tennessee and I'm thinking I can get along without it but it would definitely be a plus if I had a locking differential. However like you pointed out the additional money you have to step up and pay for the next series up kind of makes that an impossibility for me right now. At any rate thanks again for a fantastic video stay well!

I have a2018 x370 with power steering and hydraulic lift i love it, i have a lot of obstacles to mow around just got the snowblower a couple of months ago no snow yet so im patiently waiting to try it out😂

This is such a well-designed mower. I sure wish I could say the same about my base model mtd.

My operators manual for X304 tells to rotate anti scalp wheels when removing 48" deck. Glad to hear tractor had enough power to remove that snow.

I've got almost 200 hours on my x350 and it has worked really well for me. The two problems I've run unto were a defective front left wheel that wouldn't seal to the tire leading to slow leak. The other is traction/suspension. When you are on uneven surfaces this thing teeter totters back and forth on two wheels because it doesn't have any articulation in the rear. once you get a wheel in the air it just sends all power to that wheel. Also, It's real wet and hilly where I live so a real suspension and some more aggressive rear tires would have been nice. It's clear that this mower is intended for a perfectly flat and smooth lawn which I don't have. My lawn is rough as hell and after a few hours of mowing I feel like I got hit by truck.

I have the X390 series with 4 wheel power steering. My lawn is hilly with lots of trees. The 4 wheel steering really helps with traction on the hills. I tried the 350 you have but I lost traction a lot on the hills with the 48" deck. The power steering helps because the non-power 4 wheel steer is like parking a 1950 Buick. Here in the US, Deere only offers a diff lock in the 500 series and up.

Hey just watched the video i have a x350 also i love it only have 8hrs on mine brand new i had the same issue with the seat, i changed it to the exact one on the x590 bought it on ebay its the milsco xb200 . Easy installation high back very comfortable, guy i bought it from (tractor stuff) in the search bar have a good one.

I really love my Ventrac 3 series. takes a minute to change attachment, and there are like 30 of them

I have a John Deere 265 which is almost 40 years old and was a great machine but now pretty tired, and I just wrote a check for a new 350 today. After tooling it around the dealer's lot a bit, I totally agree with your observations. I can't wait to get on it. I mow about 3 acres and have a 500 foot long drive, and we live in the snow belt by I-90 in Erie county, PA and 100 inches is a typical annual snow fall.

[howardkoster]

My 2007 X300 actually needed two extra 50 pound weights in the back for snowblowing to help with traction. Big difference!! (My two 50 pound weights I believe were actually old go kart weights I adapted for the X300". The 44" snowblower is VERY aggressive and as you say, watch the speed with heavier / wet snow..I've buried the snowblower in very tall drifts and it kept on working.

This is where it starts....my JD life started with a box store D170, then to a real JD X540, and now a X758. It’s a beast in every since of the word.

[TramaineleDay]

I have an X5 series with 227hrs and never had an issue. Love the locking rear-end with a 54"cut. Thinking about a 1 series or a Z9 for quick mowing.

Great info. Would love to get my husband one. On the ride on one we have the exhaust manifold is low to ground and with all the leaves they can catch on fire. 🔥🤦🏻‍♀️. Mower was gift but definitely need an upgrade.
