Not a bargain,

This review is from: 5/8 X 97" Premium Belt. Replacement Belt for 174883 Used on Craftsman, Poulan, AYP, and Husqvarna
I have bought this Rotary brand belt two times so far. The first one I bought came with a bit of material hanging off at the seam, so I was a little concerned but I installed it with no issues in the springtime. Before the end of the mowing season it broke. Next time I ordered one, I figured I ought to change brands since this one really just seemed like bottom-of-the-barrel quality. So, I ordered a Pix brand belt instead, and what I received when I opened the box was another Rotary brand belt. Slightly annoyed, I installed it anyway and hoped for the best. . . True to form, a few months later, this one shredded and broke too. I SHOULD have returned it and insisted on the one I ordered (not that I know for sure if Pix is any better).
It says on the package "Made in Taiwan" in case you are interested. I strongly recommend that you DO NOT BUY THIS BELT unless you are willing to replace it at least once EVERY mowing season (maybe more). The original belt that came on my mower from Sears lasted several years, but this Rotary brand belt is absolutely of the very poorest quality and construction. Yes, it is the least expensive belt you can buy, but it is definitely NOT A BARGAIN when you consider the fact that you will need to replace it at least four (4) times as often as a normal belt. Sorry Rotary, but this item is garbage. . . what a waste of time and money. ***As for the positive reviews: I suspect that some of them are not actual customers, but product promoters. The balance of the positive reviews (probably authentic) have no followups after more than one season of use. They merely like the price they paid and the speed with which they received the product. If anyone actually has one of these belts last even up to two (2) mowing seasons in normal use (three-plus months of weekly mowing per season), I'd certainly like to hear about it.***

Put belt on my 42" deck craftsman rider during mid summer 2009 --went on well. Belt broke late June 2010. I have a 1/4 acre yard that gets mowed about once a week during the upstate NY mowing season. Simply did not last. I ordered a slightly more expensive belt 174883 Replacement belt made to FSP specs. For Craftsman, Poulan, Husqvarna, Wizard, more. from same amazon partner vendor & hopefully I'll have better luck. If I don't get at least a couple seasons on my next belt, than the savings not worth it & I'll reluctantly pay the big money at sears.
