Love it, but...
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this mower, that is why I bought it's . But my opinion has dropped too four stars as I try to sharpen my blades. First, the engineers used a bolt with a 15/16" hex head. Too bad most 1/2" drive socket sets top out at 7/8".
Second, the bolts must have been installed at the factory, or by the dealer, with an impact wrench. Penatrating oil, a 14" Crescent wrench and a rubber mallet won't budge them. I'm going to have to borrow an impact wrench and a 15/16" socket, or maybe buy a 3/4" drive ratchet set...
Third, the manual says to remove the deck to remove the blades. Forget that. I have it on ramps and I am working from underneath. Removing the deck for routine service is ridiculous.
I've never designed a piece of equipment without doing maintenance, at least in my head. I'm calling a fail on this part of the deck design.

Treat yourself, you won't regret it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent machine so far, comfortable, quiet, easy to maneuver, built like a tank! I ordered the bagger for it and cant wait for it to arrive. This was a fantastic upgrade from my last zero turn, no more digging holes turning corners, best decision yet.

Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had a ZT2 50 for a year now it is the best mower out there for the price range, It replaced my Toro Zero turn and this machine out performs it, the only complaint that I have is the hard ride Cub Cadet needs to change the seat suspension

ZT2 zero turn
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well I pulled the trigger on a zero turn mower after years of buying tractors and I asked myself why did I wait so long . I absolutely love the ZT2 built like a tank and the 23hp Kawasaki motor wow I love the whole package. I looked at others but the Cub was the one believe me take a look you may find that it’s for you too.

Zt2 50 issues
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought a ZT2 50. Had only 20 hours on top of it and 6 hours underneath cleaning the deck. Sold it at a huge loss just to get rid of it. Was very comfortable and engine was great. Just not a fan of fabricated decks.

Average at best
Nothing special. Wish I would have just saved my money and kept my old mower.
