Mulcher works perfectly. Very happy!
After reading many negative comments about this mulching equipment I was reluctant to purchase it. I followed the instructions and attached the blades and plug and the process was easier than I anticipated. I have run the mower now for four hours with the mulcher plug attached and have had zero problems. It works perfectly. No complaints from me, I couldn't be happier.

Mulch Kit Works Great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Mulches well, if you are looking at doing leaves with it, it will take a few passes since the mower blade tends to generate a lot of airflow. Either way it's better than raking! I haven't noticed any problems with it that the other people were complaining about. It seems well designed and made to fit on the tractor.

Waste of money
I bought this kit when I first purchased my mower. The blades do their job, but the plug is a piece of garbage. Grass will build up around the plug and ultimately push the plug away from the deck. I literally keep it packed full of grass so that the mulching blade can actually mulch the grass clippings versus shooting them out.

Great blades. Plug doesn't Work.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great blades but the plug design doesn't work. Grass starts to push open the plastic . Next you know there are big clumps hanging from it and stalling the blade. I tried the wire tye through drilled holes and still an issue. Basically this is a non-function product as is.

Look for an aftermarket part instead
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The chute cover sort of works but it doesn’t fit tightly against the deck so a lot of leaves make it through the gaps. Also, the expensive mulching blades that come with the kit do not fit on the drive shafts of my LT46 tractor, so I ended up having to use my regular blades.

Mulching blade kit for ZTS1 46 zero turn
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not as bad as people claim. Does a great job mulching grass. Cut grass does fill in around the openings where the plastic cover is attached, but once they're filled, I don't see any issues. I allow the cut grass to act as a plug. I'll see how it performs as time goes by...

Poor plug design
The mulching blades provide excellent lift, they took quite a bit of grinding to sharpen them though. The plug has a very poor seal. The mulch plug wire should come with this, it would probably help. Only the 42" plug has the retaining wire for some reason. I'm going to try ordering the wire before I try modifying anything.

Poor Plug, Good blades
I received the Mulching Kit for my 46 inch xt2 deck yesterday, Friday September 1st, 2023. The plug or cover was easy to install as was the blades; however, as mentioned in many reviews, the plug or cover does not work well. It is too flimsy. While i believe it fits well enough, it does not take much for grass and pine needles to move the plug or cover such that grass and pine needles are blown out of the side of the deck leaving a trail of cut grass and pine needles on the lawn. Maybe the plug should be sturdier.
Do want to say that the xt2 lawn tractor with 46 inch deck is very good, but Cub Cadet's best lawn tractor were the xt3 GS and GSX. I have bought one of each, the GSX in 2015 for my lawn and a GS in 2020 for lawn work at the Church I belonged to at the time. Of course from what I have read, Cub Cadet stopped making the xt3. By the way the xt3 48 inch deck had an awesome mulching kit.
Wondering if Cub Cadet plans to add to the xt2 GX 54 a power deck lift and power steering.

Satisfied to say the least
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These were so simple to install. The blades arrived sharp and perfectly balanced. The adapter installed in meter minutes with easy to follow instructions. Ordering was simple and everything arrived early. Performance was above expectations.

Awesome blades, terrible plug
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Does and amazing job at mulching......the deck plug is a poor design. Keeps coming loose on the bottom which allows large clumps out into the yard. As other have done I also had to modify it to work correctly.

LT 46 mower Mulching kit
It makes mower more narrow and mulches the yard waste down into the ground for a natural fertilizer, I also have the bag collection system for fall and it works great too, really good products. I give them and the mower for its tight turning a 10!

Works well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased the mulch kit for my new XT2 LX46 with Fabricated deck to handle the fall cleanup. While the plug could fit a bit snugger, the mulching kit worked excellently in dealing with my leaves.

46 inch mulch kit
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Works OK. The issue is that it doesn't stay tightly attached and gets a lot of grass stuck in the gaps and you need to manually remove it. Will modify with a few drilled holes and Zip ties.

Missing a Piece
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This kit needs the metal rod the kits from a few years ago had. It connects by the wing nut to hold the back of the blocking plate in place. If that was included, would rate this 5 stars.

46" mulching kit
I bought this at the start of the mowing season. The plug sucks. Never really sealed very good to the deck. Now its popping out of the deck blowing grass straight out of the deck. Blades seem fine but deck plug really bad Quality.

Works fine and delivered on time
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good, the other reviews talk about leaks and other issues like bad fit. I dunno about that, i left the discharge chute on like you're supposed to and had no problems.

Simple Installation, excellent end product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Delivered on time with easy installation instructions. The blades themselves do an incredible job; you would never know that I don't gather the clippings after mowing my lawn.

Mulching kit inferior
The “plug” doesn’t fit or seal very well. Lots of grass and dust comes through it. I drilled holes to use electrical tie-wraps to snug it up. Also used tape and foam sealer. Haven’t had it very long so will see how it goes.

Does exactly why is supposed to do
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had purchased the bedding system when I bought the lawnmower. Did not work well for my grass so I purchased this mulching system and it works fantastic.

Far less than expected for the price
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first Cub Cadet riding mower (XT2 LX46). Have always owned orange riding mowers and have been mostly pleased but there are service issues now in the area so decided to try Cub Cadet. I never gave much thought to the orange mower mulch plug but after experiencing the plug of the Cub Cadet Xtreme Mulching Kit I have a greater appreciation for the orange mower design. Namely, it worked. The Cub Cadet mulch plug by design is poor. Fit is loose, cut grass blows out at several places causing grass clippings to accumulate on the deck unnecessarily, and it leaves a streak of cut grass behind. I, like others per recorded reviews, have made several alterations to it to make it perform to my expectations. My research prior to purchase was only into the mower specifications and subsequent performance reviews. The only thought on the mulching kit was that it seemed expensive but I am committed to mulching. So, please tell me Cub Cadet that you are engineering an improved more effective design of your mulch plug that we will see soon.

Great Blades
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great blades. The cover for grass exit is poorly made. It does not fit close or tight.
Grass gets hung up in it and blows thru it.
