Riding mowers

17 years ago

Got about 3/4 acre and tired of the walk behind. Someone told me that the riding mowers (such and Cub Cadet John Deere) sold at home depot and other borgs are usually built to cheaper specs than if bought at a "respectable" dealer. Does this make sense? Any here in the know about these things?

Well- it's more like the entry level units are all you find at the big bow stores. You can buy the same unit at the dealer. For 3/4 acre- it isn't mandatory that you buy more than an entry level tractor. There may be differences in the service you receive after the sale.
