    Craftsman YT 3000 42" Briggs & Stratton 21 hp Tractor October 10, 2010

    The Craftsman YT 3000 42" Briggs & Stratton 21 hp Tractor is an excellent tractor.  I used it twice since I purchase it about two weeks ago.  The tractor is easy to operate and it does a great job in cutting the lawn.  With the hydrostatic automatic I do not have to stop the tractor in order to change speed which has reduced my cutting time by ½ hour.  The only thing I wish the tractor had is a hood latch.  I highly recommend this tractor.

    YT 3000 42" Craftsman lawn tractor October 26, 2010

    I purchased this tractor to upgrade from a 7 year old Craftsman model 42".  What i liked was the two purpose cutting blades, mulch or bag.  It has a larger engine and 4 anti scalp wheels instead of two like my old one. I also like the fact that the fuel tank is much larger.  I can mow two + times instead of once before refilling.  It seems to be similarly built and performs much the same as the old mower except two things, 1-it makes more noise in the cutting deck, maybe thinner metal or the blade design, 2-It vibrates more from the deck and engine area.  Overall, Craftsman makes a quality unit for less money than most.  I had no problems with my older tractor, just wanted a newer unit.  I bought this model because a Consumer magazine top rated it.  I am satisfied, but not overly impressed over previous model.

    Great Value December 28, 2011
    By mrbreu of Sylva, NC
    Pros:
    good speed,comfortable,handling
    Cons:
    blade switch in seat too sensitive

    This is a great mower.  I have used mine for about 1 year now and have not had any problems with it.  This mower has a great turning radius around flower beds and other obstacle's in my yard.  The only con to this mower is  the blade switch in the seat is too sensitive, when i try to shift my weight to mow on some inclines it turns the blades off.  Overall this is a great value for your money and I would recommend this product.

    The Craftsman Lawn Tracktor is reliable and does the job! November 23, 2011
    By gmccormack of North Chelmsford, MA
    Pros:
    good speed,comfortable,handling,8 inch turning radius
    Cons:
    Needs better bag full indicator

    I used my Craftsman YT 3000 42" Briggs & Stratton 21 hp Gas Powered Riding Lawn Tractor for the first time and it went great.  I live in New England and got it just in time to pick up leaves with the bag attachment.  It worked well and I look forward to using it next summer to mulch the grass.  Installing the bag attachment was easy.
