Everyone, I'm looking at an entry level zero turn. I have about an acre of land to mow about every four days in Ohio. I like to use mulching blades and wouldn't mind putting on a striping kit. Something that mulches well and leaves no clumps would be great.

Looking at various ZTs, I came down to John Deere Z355e and the Toro SS5000. Both have excellent reviews. I notice on the Toro complaints of poor customer service.

Anyone own one of these or have a recommendation?
