Nice little hassle free machine
Good features, great turning radius. It is a great machine for small-ish and relatively flat yards. It will stuggle on even slightly steep places.
Here are the problems that you will come about - the front tires are 'inside' the deck width - so the grasses get flat then doesnot really cut. so you will need to overlap by quite a bit. It will struggle on slopes (even on slight ones - possibly due to lack of weight which in turn makes it a good product on soft/sandy areas).
However, it is pretty easy to operate, does what it does pretty well. you will not be dissapointed.

saving wear and tear on my body
My legs are starting to go on me and it is becoming increasingly hard to mow with my self propelled walk behind mower. It was 97 degrees yesterday and it only took me 15 minutes to do my back yard (as opposed to an hour). Great job, worth the money!

Great Rider
This Rider was #1 in Consumer Reports for Riders - far above any of the others listd - Yes it is more expensive - but you get what you pay for. I have had it for two seasons now - runs like a charm - cuts great - never had a problem.

Too Light Weight
I have had the mower for about two months (six cuttings). I am disappointed in its inability to operate without spinning one of its back wheels when cutting diagonally across a gentle slope in my yard. The tires have very little tread depth and almost work as if slick. This mower would be great if you had a completely level lot.
Also, when using the cleaning port at the end of a cut, water pools in the "valley" of the deck top. There should be a small drain hole or two to prevent this pooling.

Great Little Mower
Bought this mower for my Mother-in-Law. She loves how easy it is to start and mow with. Traditionally it took me about an hour and a half to mow with my self propelled mower. Now it takes half of that with only a fraction of the effort! Looking forward to my second mowing season, as soon as the snow stops!

the mow in reverse is perfect
the perfect little rider i went from PONY 42'' cut to this 30'' in cut and i get done in a faster time because this mower cuts in reverse and the troy bilt pony did not what a difference and i can whip it around flowers trees, whatever is in the yard with the hydro stat drive it makes it a lot easier, but i cant complain about the troy bilt it worked flawlessly for 8 years. and still works just wanted a new different rider.

Don't overlook this little dude!
I've had this Cub Cadet riding mower for close to a year now and I must admit that I didn't know if I would truly like it. This riding mower has proved me wrong! I absolutely love this thing! I also own a Cub Cadet self propelled walk behind mower that I've owned for years and love it too! If you mow your yard, you better know your yard! I mean knowing about every dip, slope, chug hole...EVERYTHING! Respect this mower and read up on it, know it's limitations and follow operating instructions and procedures! Above all of what I've stated about this machine, set your expectations accordingly and you will not be disappointed. I promise!

Well made rider
I've had this rider about a month ago. I think it's well made with Cub Cadet quality. It runs well and allows me to mow forward and in reverse. It covers a lot of ground. My only two suggestions are 1) it needs some anti-scalp wheels on the mowing deck so it doesn't cut too short on rolling lawns, and 2) the front wheels mash down the grass so the mower doesn't mow it as close. These two items cause less than perfect mowing.

Great little Machine
Bought my mower about a month ago. I have used it now 5 times. Works great for a small yard that has some tight areas. I also am very pleased with the quality of the cut! Lawn looks great! I used to walk behind a self propelled unit for over an hour, and took two breaks. Now I get done in less than an hour, and I sit down with a COLD ONE and admire my lawn!!

Not Bad
Seems to be a well built machine. I bought it because I don't have a lot of space for a 42 in cut mower. It is made for a flat lawn and I found that to be true. I have a few small hills and it doesn't like it. If you have a VERY flat lawn then this could be for you. The deck wash hose connection on the deck has a design defect in the quick disconnect. Leaks all over the top of the deck. I contacted service and they sent me a complete new connect mechanism and it still leaks. It needs an O ring in the male end and there is none. I won't use that feature. With my small hills I don't know that I would buy it if I knew it didn't like them. There is a wire like ring at the back of the machine that disconnects the drive train to enable to push the mower by hand. Seems kind of flimsy to me. I would think they could have designed a better way. All in all not a bad machine. Seems to burn a lot of gas but I'm use to my push mower. I would only recommend it if you have a VERY flat lawn.

GREAT First Riding Mower!
This is my first riding mower. Until my CC30 H was delivered, I had never even used a riding mower before. I purchased it from an independent Cub Cadet dealer and the mower was delivered to our home and it was fully set up at the dealer's shop, was delivered with a full tank of gas and the tech who assembled and set up my CC30 H explained everything I needed to know.
I've had the mower exactly 2 months and have used it 8 times to mow our 1/4 acre property (front and back). Thus far, it has performed flawlessly. The cut is quite acceptable considering that I'm now cutting the grass at a faster pace than with the traditional push ("Personal Pace") mower. There have been no mechanical issues and cleanup is easy with a leaf blower and the hose attachment on the deck. I purchased the grass catcher / bagger with the mower and read as many reviews and watched as many videos available on numerous websites as well as having read the Owners Manual and other official manuals for this riding mower so as to be as well-informed about what owning and operating a riding mower may require.
I also purchased this mower due to its very manageable size and, most importantly, it fit through our 42" gate between the back and front yards, which meant no fence / gate alterations. Overall, I'm very, very happy with my purchase of the Cub Cadet CC30 H riding mower and would immediately replace it with the same model were anything to happen to it.

I have been using my CC30H for just 3 times and love it. It starts right up, steers very well and is very comfortable mowing.

What we were looking for
When our 18 hp mower froze up after 5 summers, my mechanic said that engine had a flaw. Shopping around, we found that most mowers in our price range had the same engine, no matter what brand name was on the label.
Because we have several trees, my wife wanted something small that would mow around them. I wanted an engine with the old-school oil distribution system-oil pump--filter etc. I also wanted a mower that mows in reverse. This mower fulfills all of these needs, and it is at the top of our price range.
Being a Cub Cadet, we expect quality.
After reading the instructions, we have mowed our 6/10 acre lot once. It is fairly flat with just a slight grade at one end. It is full of very small ruts and ridges. The CC 30 H cuts nicely and cuts in close to trees and our garden boxes. There were couple of patches of tall grass, and putting the cut height at 5, it went through those, but I wouldn't recommend it for cutting a lot of tall grass.
The biggest drawbacks I see are most of the mower is made out of plastic, and it isn't real rigid. I could really feel this through some of the small ruts in my yard. This is why I only gave it a four on Performance and Quality.
Something some people might not like is that is has basically two speeds, slow and slower. We are happy with this, but after using the 18 hp mower with 42inch cut, I really noticed how much more time it took to mow. But the CC 30 H is quieter giving more time to meditate on theology.
I would recommend this mower to anyone with an average to large lot and who doesn't feel the need to rush through every job.

Very comfortable
I bought this Cub Cadet CC 30 H in June to replace my 30 year old Lawn-Boy RE8E. The seat is great on my back, the automatic transmission is great. It is quiet and cuts nicely and turns on a tight radius. Can't think of anything negative !

Very Satisfied !
I bought this mower in May 2018, I have a .33 acre Lot mostly flat, and this mower is Perfect ! I can get up close to shrubbery and other obstacles with ease, The mow in reverse feature is fantastic for getting around obstacles as well. I can mow my yard in an hour, If I were pushing it with a 20" push mower it would take at least 2 1/2 hours.

Perfect for my yard.
I moved into a new home a couple of years ago and purchased a CC XT1 riding mower during the first year. I'm on close to 1/2 acre so I was right in between a full rider and a push lawn mower. We have since added landscaping that has further eroded the amount of grass to be cut while also making things a little less maneuverable. In short the XT1 was a bit overkill and also took up a little more room in the garage than I like.
Enter the 30 H and all my problems have been solved. Its quieter, compact and does a great job of cutting. A little under powered especially on any type of slope but a great mower nonetheless. The right tool for the job is a good feeling.

Perfect Answer for small lawns
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After downsizing my house and lawn I was looking for a small but nimble riding lawnmower. I did my research and decided to go with the CC30 H. I have had it for about 6 weeks and I am very pleased with my choice. My yard is flat with several trees and curved edging for plant, shrubs and flowers. The CC30 H cuts very well and I can maneuver it around the trees very well. My only dislike is cutting in reverse, but I am getting used to that. I also did buy a after market oil drain tube to help with the oil changing. Overall, I am pleased and would make this purchase again.

Mowing the lawn is enjoyable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Buying this smaller riding mower was the right choice for me. Cuts great and also bags grass very well with optional bagger kit. Was very impressed with pick up suction of the mower deck. Have mowed lawn 5 times now without any issues. Just 2minor adjustments needed (seat and Blade height).Mowing time was reduced by 50%and suggest to use riding mower first and then touch up with trimmer or push mower. Glad I purchased this Cub Cadet Rider not only for cutting grass but also pulling 40" thatcher and 40" lawn areator around with ease! I can now enjoy doing yard work again with this Cub Cadet 30"H Rider rider. Thank You

Great Mower For Wisconsin
Does a great job for 1/4 acre and a grass cul de sac. Love the tight turning radius, mow at night, good power, great cut, hydrostatic saves so much time. Grass bagger to mulch kit, and back takes maybe 10 minutes if that-very easy switch out.
J hook on back of bagger is a hazard to catch on fence or object. Oil change pet cock location is a design failure. Needs a straight pipe threaded out enough past motor to change oil to make user friendly.
Super happy with purchase. A great, great riding mower. Use a walk behind most of the time, but great to have when needed or change of pace for hot days and mid week grind. This was a great purchase for the money. Thanks Cub Cadet!

Love the Hydrostatic drive with reverse while cutt
I bought it about a month ago at HD. So far I really like it. I have a 90 x 180 lot with a house and a pool so not that much to cut, but I live in Louisiana and it gets really hot in July and August. At 65 I like keeping up my lawn and this will keep me doing that. I had an older 28” snapper rider and this is much easier to get around and cut tight places.

Overall I am very pleased (4.5 stars)
Bought the product sight unseen because 1. it was one of very few mowers that would fit through my gates and 2. it came so highly recommended. Just a few quibbles: it was tricky to unpack from its crate unaided, it wasn't clear how to know when the blade was engaged/disengaged and it's hard to reach the pedals with short legs. However customer service was very responsive and helpful. I like how responsive the steering and brakes are vs. my 20 year old rider and it's nice to control the speed with my foot pedal, but I do wish mowing in reverse was a less complicated process, since my yard requires it so often.

Love it!
I've used my Cub Cadet the past month, and I am very pleased with it. Easy to use, easy to turn, and I love the hose spray feature to clean underneath. One thing that might need improved is when I am using the hose feature, there needs to be a way to get the water off the top of the deck. I don't see any drain holes.Sometimes the rear wheel spins when I'm going up a small incline, but usually I can back up a bit and try a little different angle. Overall, I am very pleased with this mower!

Great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this one since it’s a smaller than the bigger ones and bought the bagger. Previous owners were not taking care of the leaves and probably have a few inches of leaves just stacked. Bagger is picking up even the small seeds and twigs left behind by the squirrels. The 30h seems to have enough power for what I need to get done with having .64 acres. It definitely makes cutting grass a lot easier leaving me to use the push mower for minimal use and just going back with the trimmer for the smaller stuff. Cutting grass is less work now and more enjoyable.

Great riding mower!
I purchased this riding mower to make mowing a large yard more enjoyable. After mowing the yard several times, I have discovered that mowing is no longer a long ordeal, but in fact I actually feel energetic after mowing. A great investment in time and energy savings!
