...The ZT1436 is ...It is a bit noisier than other brands I have tried, but for the money I saved it's bearable.It does the same job around trees and plantings as the more expensive units and for me should last a lifetime as I do not intend to use it daily to mow for a living.(Professional brands)I would recommend this to anyone with "stuff" to mow around as it cuts your lawn care time in half(even less) so you can move on to other interests.Just as easy to use as the Big names zero turn units, only half the price.So far I am quite pleased.Parts are available internet and phone, but no local dealers for service.I figure I can fix anything that may go wrong and they will supply the parts if need be.This Zero turn mower actually makes lawn work fun!

This review is from: Swisher 36-Inch 14.5 HP Zero-Turning Radius Riding Mower ZT1436 (Lawn & Patio)

I have used my Swisher 36" zero turn for 3 years now. I have not been gentle with it and it has performed flawlessly. I mow 2 acres and I am currently looking for a good deal on a 50" swisher, so obviously I have a lot a confidence in Swisher mowers. Also, I have had to replace a couple of deck bearings and the Swisher part people are extremely helpful and actually know about their products. I had a couple of bearings go bad after about 250-300 hours, which is pretty good, even for a commercial quality mower.

I wanted a zero turn mower but not a huge one, I have a medimum size yard with lots of trees and narrow spaces between fences and flower beds. This is the perfect width and size for my use. I bought the mulch kit, and the only complaint is that instead of the factory drilling a bolt hole for the plate and putting a bolt in it if your not going to use it, you have to drill your own hole and the deck is thick metal. Otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.
