Ride on

[Lee Winger]

I guess its horses for courses, how many hours a year does your mate require a ride on? personally I'd rather a commercial walkbehind Ferris, Scagg or Great Dane

Its purely for personal use -once a week in the season on about 2 acres of lawn.

He'll definitely want a ride on, walking will be too much like hard work!! ( I would imagine!!

Personally I would stay clear of the lower end machines if buying used, as you will get top end domestics for not a lot more money

IMO lower end includes Murray,Lawnflite, McCulloch AYP etc.

Mid range is Hayter (although some are Murray) ALKO, Twin Cut Countax etc

Top end is John Deere, Stiga Kubota ISEKI.

 

Top end domestic is suitable for footy field size (1 1/2 acres) no need to go fully commercial.

 

Thanks for the advice GK, much appreciated!
