Gator Blades......opinions please

   / Gator Blades......opinions please #11  
I just purchased gator blades from my Local John Deere dealer, I have a 2320 with a 62d deck. I have had this since 2008, the deck came with the standard blades.....it seemed to cut well but I thought it left a lot of windrows when ever I mowed. After asking around no one seemed to be able to tell me how well gator blades would work on my deck. So I took a chance and ordered them. (my dealer had never sold a set for this deck) I believe they cost about $65. They are very heavy steel just like the original blades. So before I put them on I thought I would service my deck, pressure wash the underside and give them a good test. I made sure my grass was long and that it was dry. It had been raining her for 3 days so the grass has been growing like crazy:D: I went out and started mowing and couldn't believe how well they cut! I am told that the gator blades reduce the clipping 4 to 1, and I believe it. It makes my lawn look 200% better. The blades also seem to struggle less in taller grass and the tractor doesn't seem to work as hard. I also have three other people who have a 2320 and they were so impressed with the cut of the blades they have all gone out and purchased a set for their tractors. My only regret is that I did not have them two years ago. I give the gators a thumb up for me they are great! :thumbsup:

I have the Gator blades on a 72" MMM and would not EVER buy the stock blades again. I have much less windrows than the stock or high lift blades. They work very well for me. As for some of the previously listed draw backs, they happen with every blade.

I have the gatorblades and love them.. I notice that the clippings are much smaller than the OEM blades..

As with anything, some ppl love them and some hate them.. but they arent that expensive and if you dont like them im sure someone on here will buy them from you if the price is right
