Hi,

I have about 1/2 acre to mow with several obstacles, but mostly flat.

I am looking to purchase a lawn tractor.

I have looked at MTD, Craftsman, John Deere and Kubota - all of which I can
get parts and service easily (no other brands in my area like Cub Cadet)

I've narrowed it down to three:
John Deere L110
John Deere LT150 or LT160
Kubota T1570

There's about a $1000CDN difference between the L110 and the others. I've
seen some negatives about the L series JD's, and some rave reviews.

Does anyone have any experience with any of my contenders?? Parts/service
are important to me. Is the L series really that bad.

Thanks

I have the L120, so far its been great but only have 20 hours on it, I
mow 2 acres. I got the grass catcher with it as an option and really
like it. If you decide on the JD, the price is the same no matter
where you get it, Home Depot or John Deere.
