Well tomorrow I'm going to go check out the Rhino line. And i finally found a couple REAL Bush Hog dealers so I'm gonna check them out too.

I would check the specs ON LINE and compare the different models from each manufacturer then price comparable mowers. I would want a gear box at least 25 HP rated higher than my tractor or more. 1/4" plate all around including top which is where most rust out occurs and one with plenty of bracing for stiffness of deck. Also look at how the tail wheels are mounted. Some brands are really wimpy and see a lot of them bent. Look at the 3 PH brackets for robustness and make sure that they have the swivel joint so the tail end can ride up without stressing your top link. Some just have pin while the better quality have a swivel joint that allows a lot of movement up without binding anything

I you want a stout cutter as the title says look at the BB720. I would say that the BB72 is a good cutter but it is not up to what you say you are wanting. It fits into the category of the Landpride, King Cutter and others. A very nice unit but it is a light duty unit just like 90% of all the others mentioned.The bb72 is more in my price range but the 720 is very nice heavy cutter. I've looked at their blade change system and it does look handy.
