I hope, very sincerely, that your purchase works out better than that $2500.00 piece of garbage, no good, hunka junk, Crapsman I bought with my hard earned dollars. I could go on, but then my chest will start to hurt, the numbness will creep into my left arm.... you get the picture.

wow first person I heard with a bad experience with a craftsman. Did you get their lawn or garden tractor model?

Yes those are the type of replies I love the most. Nothing but a sentence or two of pure brand bashing, with nothing at all posted to back any of the bashing up with. Unless we hear the story, saying something is a piece of junk without a description of the situation is just wasted words.

I think we will all agree none of the Craftsman models are X700's, but they don't have X700 price tags either. I'll venture to guess that unless in the case of the occasional lemon, which you can get with anything, those who have serious ongoing problems with a Craftsman LGT are asking too much from too small a tractor for their job at hand.

I have had alot of trouble with craftsmen but i don't go bashing other people lawn mowers besides to each it own. I personly like my JD LA100 and my New JD 4120 C.U.T. I just don't can't stand when people can't be happy with other peoples choice of tractor. Like I aways say if you think your lawn mower better then letting hooks chains and see the outcome.Stop bashing and be happy for that person if they made mistake then they will soon find out the hard way.
