Cub Cadet : Buying Guide

Speed 

You can get the job done a lot faster with a zero turn lawnmower instead of a lawn tractor. It has a lot more power hence more speed and faster cutting. 

Durability 

The parts in a zero turn mower are made of stronger materials and are much more durable than the smaller push mowers. 

Reliability

Because of the stronger parts, ZTR mowers will go through a lot more damage and still be reliable. You can hit rocks or small obstacles and it would keep going.
