Any mower that runs and cuts is the best mower!

I have (4) of the PROZ960s. My guys will never let me go back to lap bars or stand up. Built in turf tear reduction and the coveted ability to mow on steep slopes and around retention ponds like a breeze is truly a game changer. Our production has increased 20%. NO MORE 3 point turns.

I own the Pro Z 970 (dual wheel for hills). It is a fantastic machine. The steering wheel was initially to accommodate my wife who does not like the traditional zero turn handles. I have come to love it as well. Absolutely fantastic machine at a crazy price but I wanted to buy a machine for the next 10 years and have the additional stability of the 4 back wheels. Good video.

I have the mini homeowner grade ZTS1 version. No fancy suspension on the front, in fact, the frame is so rigid i can lift a wheel over a foot in the air with no flex whatsoever. It has multiple grease zerks, mostly in the steering linkage bushings on the front. I got it for one specific reason: Hills. My property is on the side of a mountain, So I have a 200 plus foot long hill right down the middle that varies between 17 and 25 degrees. I can mow sideways along most of it. A regular Zero turn would just lawn dart down the hill, and a lawn tractor, or any tractor would flip over. That's where these mowers shine is on hills and in and amongst trees, They are a lot more precise than a regular zero turn cleaning up the woodlands that are my front lawn. With a heat index of 107 today, the grass can grow, though.

Totally agree with cub steering wheel hill stability and it not tearing when zero turn. When the patent expires, I expect it to be widely adopted by other brands.

I am happy with my toro zero turn “with a steering wheel”!
I purchased it new on end of season clearance for $1700. About 1/10 th of the price of these.
It is 5 years old and still going strong. :)

I purchased one of the first Steering wheel style zero turn mower, Cub Cadet Z Force S54 and it has proven itself to be a very stout & reliable mower. Has several hundred hours now, had it serviced recently (hydro drive belt) and my mechanic read the date manufactured as 2010. Looking back I realize the date is correct. One of the best things about the mower is its ability to handle side slopes. Have an area I mow at church near the road with a pretty severe slope and while I have to steer with one hand and hold on to high side of mower with the other, the mower is like a Billy goat on the side slope. Been a great mower!

We bought a Pro Z 100 steering wheel Cub Cadet in 2018. It has been a great mower and we would buy another one without any hesitation. Outdoors with the Morgans recently did a video with the cub cadet zero turn steering wheel mower also. I would bet after the release of your video and their’s that more people will probably purchase this type of mower.

A friend of mine has one just like it called a GIZ Mow, which he really likes, he had a Camp Ground and has bought just about every O-turn there is.

To say it’s the best you would have to use this mower commercial for a year, that’s the only way you can get a chance to test every aspect of weird lawns with obstacles and things like that.

I have had a cub cadet 0 turn since 2015 and mine has greaseless blade pulley hubs I have not had one issue with them, I cut about 2.5 acres weekly in Wisconsin, It needed plugs, air filter and oil changes. I will buy another one when this one junks out.

Hi Brock - I have this exact same mower. Had it for one season and put 50 hours on it. The best mower hands down I have ever had, and I have owned almost every type of mower you can imagine. This thing is a tank! If you see it in person, you will notice how thick the steel is everywhere on this machine. As you mentioned - no grease fittings! You explained the steering perfectly and it is precise. I load mine on a trailer with less than a 1/2-inch clearance on either side. People see me get ready to load and they say - you will never get that thing on that trailer without a fight, and with a standard ZT that would be correct, with this one it is never an issue, the steering is so precise. It is also very fun to drive, like a go-cart, and it will go as fast you want, I never use it with the pedal to the floor, even moving from one part of the property to the other - too fast. CUB has been around a long time, and they really hit a homerun with this machine - it's impressive in every way.
You explained the complexity of this whole machine perfectly - good job and keep up the great work on the videos!!

Hello people we don't greese our cars anymore and they don't wear out. No biggie!! Love the grass shoot and that pulley guard is genius.

[kenday]

Ive had a 60inch Gravely for6 yrs no repairs and cuts great!

[eightknots]

❤you do a superior explanation of this mower, they should pay you for your time. Thanks for your help.

[hashtagjustadad]

Hands down the coolest concept I’ve seen for a zero turn. It definitely has my attention!

[steveboston]

The shopping cart analogy is THE best selling point when mowing on slopes, especially around ponds, major pucker. Kind regards

[coldwarkid]

Many reviewers have been super impressed. It's crazy what the dual wheel setup can tackle.
