The Kohler engine is a very good engine if it was maintained properly.
Look at the oil and you can get an idea of how well it was maintained.
If the oil is black and thick like molasses, that is bad. If it is
translucent and runs, it was changed recently and hopefully was changed
regularly in the past.

The John Deere's are highly rated. The are considered the most
reliable. And, they have the best TV ads. What more could you want

38 inch - 14 to 16 HP
42 inch - 16 to 18 HP
48 inch - 20 to 22 HP
