The Craftsman 26 hp V-Twin Engine Zero Turn Tractoroffers extreme horsepower at a value-loaded price. The Briggs & Stratton Platinum Series 26 hp* OHV V-Twin motor with a counter-balanced results in more power, less vibration, quieter operation and less wear and tear.

There’s a 50 in.-wide deck with a timed triple blade system for superior cutting performance, and six cutting heights from 1-1/2 in. to 4 in. provide you the flexibility and precision your lawn needs. Four-gauge wheels minimize lawn scalping for a more beautiful lawn with 20 inch. turf saver tires in the back to prevent skidding and grass damage as you turn, and 13 inch front caster wheels for making effortless turns. The 14-gauge welded steel frame is rugged and durable. Pivoting front axle and floating deck follows the contours of the ground for clean, no-hassle cutting.
The Craftsman 50 inch Riding Mower comes with a reliable, 12-volt, 230 CCA battery for reliable starting in all weather conditions. A 3-gallon gas tank with sight gauge give you more mowing time between fill-ups. Deluxe high-back seat with auto slide adjustability has added padding for an ultra-comfortable ride and foam-covered lap bar grips reduce vibrations while mowing. Dual deck wash system cleans out grass and debris build-up under the deck.

I bought this in April and it worked fine and mowed great. Then a spring broke that helps keep the mower deck up. Every time I would go over a bump it would drop the deck to the lowest setting. I called Sears and a technician came out and found out there was a broken spring and ordered a new one. He came back out a few days later after it arrived. He worked on it for a few hours and finally said he couldn't get it back on that he needed help. A few days later he and another technician came out and worked on it half the day. Between them they had 70 years of experience working on mowers and they weren't able to fix even after talking to the manufacturer. The one tech told me he thought the mower was built around the spring. So they left and it's still not working. They returned about a week later and said it would have to be replaced. This went on for about a month. Obviously I didn't get this one as a replacement. I sent it back and got a refund. It's lucky it was under warranty. If it had happened a few years from now I would have been stuck with a mower than only mows really close to the ground. I caution anyone thinking about this mower to look at some of the others.

i purchased this unit to mow 3.5 acres. First of all it won't mow in reverse. That is just not right. Then the vibration is horrible.

i don't like this product. It will not mow in reverse
Blythewood, SC
I purchased this machine to mow 2 acres. The sales person was great and seemed to really know the machine. I have now mowed with it for three mowings. It just simply doesn't perform well. I rode my neighbors Deere unit and it steers better and the controls are more user friendly.

sears has move to a cheap product. I am an engineer and will tell you this product is not well designed. Look at a Toro machine at Depot or a Snapper machine at your local dealer. Either one is a better machine.

I looked at a Craftsman ZTR last fall and it seem to be a well built machine. Now this machine looks like a totally different machine.
