For the money it's hard to beat!
Compared to other residential ZTR mowers this one is hard to beat. There other mowers that are built a little better, but compare the quality to price the ZT2 60 is hard to beat. Fast, cuts great, so far I see no need to mulch grass blades. Easy to clean, comfortable ride, easy to check hydraulic oil, easy to gas up, sporty looking and very practical design.
Serviceability of the Hydro Gear mower transmission, the large turf tires, and the 24 HP Kawasaki FR Series V-Twin engine was a deal maker. Oil changes are a breeze on the Kawasaki motor, everything is easy to get to compared to other brands.
If your shopping around for a ZTR make sure you compare apples to apples and compare what you get for what your wanting to spend.

Cuts fast, smoothly and comfortably.
Pros:
Good match between speed of mower and cutting ability
Comfy
Nice cut with hi-lift blades
Easy access to everything requiring maintenance
Nice appearance
Easy to setup/adjust (comes with tool)
Cons:
Hitch plate keeps vibrating loose
Belt tensioner spring on top of deck vibrates loudly against deck
Summary:
I will put loctite on hitch plate bolts
I will wrap spring with rubber hose to prevent metal on metal contact
I will recommend mower to others; more so, if Cons are addressed
Also have 3 year old XT-1. Trouble free and great cut. Definitely give Cub Cadet a look.

This machine is amazing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This machine is amazing. It gives you a very wide cutting space. Easy to turn and maneuver. Driving arms are spaced out so you can easily sit in the comfortable padded seat. Easy to start. The changeover from driving to cutting is a bit stuttered but manageable. Bright yellow paint is easily visable . 3 speeds to do your cutting . This is a well made well built durable zero turn machine for large area and branch’s lands. This is a must have for any one who has a decent amount of land to cut.

Awesome mower!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I started looking for a zero turn mower I had no idea what I was getting myself into as far as the different brands out there and going through all the different information on each. After all my research I chose the ZT2 60 by Cub Cadet and I couldn’t be happier. I was using a 48 inch rider before and this unit cut my mowing time in half!! It looks great and is a blast to mow! I chose the ZT2 60 for the features of the deck and the serviceable transmission. And yes it also looks great and is very comfortable! The quality of cut is great and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.

Great Mower!
I bought the ZT2 60" deck two seasons ago. We had just purchased a small acreage, which then expanded. I am mowing over 5 acres a week with this mower. Runs great, I have hit a number of saplings and it just keeps on going. Although not recommended for ditches I still use the ZT2 for my ditches and it has never ever had an issue.
I have a second house I take care of as well and just load the mower on a trailer and cut that 1/2 acre like it is nothing. If there was anything that I would like is to have a seat with more suspension, but there are after market seats I could get if I really wanted. As for the mower hands down a great purchase!

Smooth ride
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love this mower! It’s handles great and turns so easily. It took more than a few minutes to figure out how everything worked but I got it. It’s a little confusing at first, because you have to remember how to make the blade go up and down as well as learning the handles. Once I took a couple runs in the yard I learned how to work it. Practice makes perfect. I would recommend this mower!

Fast work of Mowing.
I got this mower very early in 2019 and had it sitting around for a while until I could try it. On large lawn with good drainage this mower is a MONSTER for speed and ease of use. But since my yard take a while during April and May to dry out I had a tough time with it. The small front wheels get stuck in soggy/boggy ground and the back tires with flat treads designed for not tearing up your grass in zero turns will spin easily and get stuck. Have a backup mower with large wheels standing by to pull yourself out. Now when it rains hard to use the old mower to do the soggy/boggy areas and do the rest with my ZT2 60 for it's exceptional speed and large fuel tank. Speaking of the fuel tank, it's large enough to do both the front and back yards of my 5 acre lot without refueling in between. I also have roots from trees that protrude from the ground which will destroy a mower's blades quickly, but I haven't hit any at all this year and found I can mow as low as 2 inches making the yard look well manicured like a golf course or park.

Cub cabet zt2 60
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the Cub Cadet TZ2 60 Zero turn mower to try and am so glad that I did. This thing is amazing! I had never used or ridden a zero turn before and at first was both nervous and skeptical at best about how hard it would be to get used to. Boy was I wrong! After going over the basic instructions and safety features I was off and running in no time at all. Within about 15 minutes I was riding and mowing like a pro! The mower was not only amazingly easy to get used to, It mowes GREAT as well. Your speed and turns are easily controlled with the simple push or pull on the controlls. It mowes great even at high speeds. In fact, my yard has honestly never looked better. I would highly recommend this mower to anyone who does their own yard maintenance!
