Cub Cadet GT3200 Reviews
Super Duper
Model Year: 2010
I first purchased a Cub 2544 in late 2008 and had nothing but problems, although the Dealer repaired each issue, and did it all promptly at no charge; it was still very upsetting for me. I wanted a tractor that would last and be of a quality that I could be proud of and to own. When I traded it on the GT 3200 after looking at Simplicity, the Deer, and Kubota – it was in my best interest to stay with a Cub, financially and to meet my needs. I just like the look of a Cub and the History of the tractor firm, I realize that most of this has changed – but, my feeling about ownership has not. I do wonder if the travel, left to right, and up and down, on the Berco blade is correct, it appears to be less than expected. It is only about a 5 to 5.5 inch travel total. This does not seem right, but again, I have nothing to judge this movement on, other than appearance. My overall experience to date is excellent, and the Dealer JE Andrews & Sons, has been excellent as well, they provide superior service and care when working on my units.
Pros: Everything.
Cons: Burns gas.

This cub cadet is very good at what we have had it do. We have a triple bagger for it to pickup tree leaves & grass that gets too thick. The mower deck is very heavy & really dose a excellent job. We bent one spindle on mower but was our own fault. It is the best tractor mower we have ever had.
Pros: Very good tractor & morer
Cons: none

Cub Cadet 3235
Model Year: 2004
This tractor has the Kohler Command 25 HP 2-cylinder engine. It replaced a 1978 IH Cub 1450 with 44A deck and hydraulic snow plow. It has the 54-inch mowing deck which is a huge improvement over the 44A. The power steering is a joy, eliminating the need to add a steering wheel spinner knob that I used on the 1450. The 44A required monthly cleaning underneath whereas the 54-inch has required cleaning once a year or less. It weighs 260 pounds so the less the better. I mow 1 acre with some uneven areas and many tree roots. It works well trimming around many small trees and shrubs after disabling the Reverse-no-mow feature. It has not required dealer service yet. The forward speed is less than advertised, even after adjusting reverse to a crawl for maximum forward speed. I jury-rigged a 2-inch pedal extension on the forward pedal which allowed adjustment for a higher forward and reverse speed.
Pros: Sturdy build, good cut
Cons: Poor adjustment to gain forward speed. Poor mounting of headlight bezel.
