Product Description

9 Bushel 3 - bin Soft Bagger for 42" deck. Fit Lawn tractors.

Bagging is a clean and efficient way to collect grass clippings and leaves. The top of the bagger is designed for improved air flow, which results in fuller bags and less stops. The easy-glide bin with built-in handles makes clipping disposal easy.

    Great capacity and easy removal for tow-behind accessories October 22, 2009

    I bought this bagger for my new PYT 24hp 42" tractor.  The 46 inch width does not interfere with close work except for one sign post in the yard.  I just stay back a bit and use the weed trimmer.  I'm happy I decided to go with the 3-bag unit.  The stock blades that came with the tractor provide ample "lift" to fill all 3 bags.  The one to the left fills first, followed by the center, then the right.  Not sure if the latching system on the overhead cover will hold over time, so I will monitor this closely.  If the cover is not fully latched, the grass clippings will blow out over the bags.  I love the dual handles on each of the bags, and this makes for very easy removal and emptying.  The bags go on, and come off with little effort.  Make sure to clean the exhaust vents each time you empty the bags.  There is some blow-by around the main seal if the vents get clogged.  The little red wheel that is supposed to let you know when the bagger is full is not a big help so just feel the bags from time to time, or wait until you see it is not picking up the clippings.  All in all, I am very happy with the bagger when compared to more expensive options.

    If I had rated this a year ago... May 22, 2008

    If I had rated this a year ago, after using the bagger for a month or so, I probably would have rated it as 4 stars. After having used it for a year I can only give this product 1 star. My first hint should have been when I had to have it delivered 3 times as the first two came with cracked tops. The catcher does fill from left to right as each bag fills. After time, the weight of the left bag has caused the left support pole to bend out. The support bars are not a heavy enough gauge to support the weight of full bags. This makes the catcher sit uneven with the left bag hanging lower. This has had several negative effects. First, the bag hits the ground when I go through even a gradual dip in the yard. This causes the bag to bottom out and be lifted off of the support bars and onto the ground spilling half of the bag on the lawn. Because the assembly is leaning down, the support bars are also leaning down which will also allow the bag to fall off. I had to use bungee cords attached to the bag handles to keep them from slipping. This also adds additional time to dumping. Even with the bungee cords holding the bags, I am constantly reaching back to pull the bags back into place. Finally, I noticed that a crack had started to form in the hard shell next to one of the hinges. As I was cutting last week, the entire shell cracked in half and the bagger fell apart completely. Other than these problems, it's been great. One other thing worth mentioning, I have a craftsman 42 deck with 22 horsepower. I would recommend only getting a bagger if you have a minimum of 22 HP. I don't think that a smaller engine would be very effective at pulling the grass into the catcher when it is high or damp. For $450 to replace this item, I think that I'll be going back to mulching.

    3 Bin Soft Bagger for 42 inch deck October 21, 2011
    By Lor48 of Andover, MN
    Pros:
    Easy to install and use

    Love this thing. I have an acre lot and have raked and bagged leafs for years. The bagger works great, I haven't had problems with it clogging up or anything. It does fill up fast, but sure beats raking.

    Good product but beware of bin falling through supports. July 09, 2011
    By nucjock of Ottawa, IL
    Pros:
    Easy to install and use
    Cons:
    Bin falls through supports

    My brother works for Sears and recommended this product. I am very happy that I purchased the 3 bin vs. the 2 bin. I don't have to empty as often. My brother says that most people that buy the 2 bin always wish they had bought the 3 bin. However, there is one down fall to this product. Looking from the back, the left bin fills up first. Therefore, this bin is the heaviest and falls through the supports. The bin will then dump lawn clippings all over your lawn. I read another review about this problem before purchased this product and indeed, it is a problem. I did two things to rectifiy the problem. I load the bins from right to left instead of left to right (like the directions tell you to do.) Second, I put a long strip of velcro on each side of the left bin. These two things create more friction and prevent that bin from falling through. Since I have done this, the bin has not fallen through. Overall, I'm extremely happy with the product. It works well and is easy to assemble/disassemble. However, I shouldn't have to put velcro on the bin to prevent them falling through. Sears should come up with a more robust design.

    easy assembly, easy to use, convienient 3 bushel bags June 15, 2011
    By EricYLee of Saint Paul, MN
    Pros:
    Easy to install and use,EASY TO USE

    Easy to assemble, all hardware included. Took less than ten minutes to mount on the mower.

    Bins are plastic and easily washed, The total capacity of the bins combined is nine bushels but are separated into three easy to manage interchangeable compartments.

    The pickup tube from the mower deck is two separate pieces that fit together easily into the bagger housing.

    Only two problems in the whole thing is the bolts that hold the pickup tube elastic bands to the ejection port are reinforced with small washers and are easily pulled through the plastic if you accidentally hook something. I changed the washers to one inch washers to beef it up against pull through. The other minor problem is the red fill indicator stopped working after two, three hundred foot passes. It would be nice to have a way to fix it but I noticed the grass falls out of the bagger when it is full.

    Don't waste you money on this one! May 18, 2011
    By mower30 of Canby, OR

    I've had this bagger now for 3 years and have had nothing but trouble with it. The only time it will pickup clippings is when the grass is bone dry and already short before cutting. If the grass is in the least bit wet or long, forget it. I have to cut my lawn, and then go over it a second time to pick up the clippings. Even then it still leaves at least 1/3 of the clippings on the lawn I think my craftsman mower is great, but the bagger is a big waste of money and and time. Don't waste yours with this product!!!
