What to Look for When Buying a Cub Cadet Riding Lawn Mower
Thinking of buying a Cub Cadet Riding Lawn Mower?

There are several Cub Cadet riding lawn mowers that have been developed throughout the years, including the new Ultima Series, as well as new XT2 Enduro Series models. Thanks to a range of features that are key to a great looking lawn, there are many Cub Cadet options to choose from. It can be difficult to decide which model is right for you so before making any purchasing decisions, you should first ask yourself the following questions.

How large is the area that I want to mow?

To make sure you can get the most out of your mower, you must take the size of your home or property into account. This will have an impact on the features you want and the level of power you will need.

What size mower deck do I want?

Lawn mowers with larger cutting widths and more horsepower will get the job done faster. However, smaller mowers allow you to work in more areas with limited access, such as backyards obstructed by narrow gates, that larger mowers cannot fit through.

What type of terrain will I be facing?

Understanding your terrain is critical in deciding how much horsepower you need. Homeowners that work on flat, less challenging terrain can choose a tractor with the least amount of horsepower, while those that work with slopes and hills will require a mower with more horsepower and stability.

How many obstacles will I need to mow around?

The more obstacles within a space, the tighter turning radius you will need. Cub Cadet zero turn riders tend to have a smaller turning radius than tractors. Theses zero turns are designed to help you cut grass faster with fewer twists and turns.
