My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Lawn tractor choice?

16 years ago

I am looking for a new lawn tractor. Looking at 3 Craftsman models...

1) YT4000 (28928) - Very good 42", 24hp model

2) PYT (28980) Pro model of 42", 24hp

3) 28933 (Revolution zero turn)

The first one looks like a good deal... and plenty of power for my 15,000 ft2, flat yard. Trying to figure out if there is any reason that I would not know until after I owned one for a while, to go up to the Pro line... the zero turn might be nice, but I don't think it is worth over $1000 more.

Any insight from Craftsman owners would be greatly appreciated... or anyone else who thinks another brand's similar mode might be a better deal.
