I’ve been looking at the JD 2210 for months and waiting for the announcement of its replacement. Thanks to the TBN members, I now have the preliminary information on the new JD 2305. It looks great! Now I need to select the appropriate mower for my application and would appreciate input.
I plan to mow 3-5 acres of meadow grasses just to keep it looking clean but not highly manicured. My real question is “Do I buy a Mid Mount Mower or a 261 Rear-Mount Rotary Mower”.
My impressions are the MMM is more maneuverable, but the RMM is easier to attach and remove as needed (i-Match?). I’ll be mulching around the trees so I don’t need to make sharp turns or mow in a tight radius. Bottom line is… I’m leaning toward the RMM because I could drop it off after mowing and attach a rake or ballast box or what ever much easier than the MMM (my assumption).
Any recommendations?
