STEINER 230, Any Input Please.

Thanks. If I had to go with that style I would go with the f series JD or Kubota, just to have something more mainstream.

Yep, the out front deck is my favorite. But I prefer the red ones:

The Articulated Steiner is a horrible way to cut grass. Sure the deck is out front but it is very tiring. Sure, the new ones with foot pedal are better, but swinging that deck around on the articulation is a chore.

Me, I like my ten foot Cushman wing mower. It's like flying a Lear jet in comparison. Like I would know what that's like. Only problem is, something is ALWAYS leaking, and it's next to impossible to work on. But cutting grass is no longer an issue of time. You can keep a HUGE amount of grass cut, just ten minutes here and there when you feel like having a sit down job.

If you want comfort get a Ferris zero turn with suspension and a cat diesel. I remember when the JD. dealer had to get rid of them because they could not sell a JD. zero turn..... Jim

Yeah, I could use a suspension seat. When I did a very large mowing job on hard ground, my hips suffered the next day. But generally, any mowing job just doesn't take long with 62HP and a ten foot cut. Plus I like Automotive steering.

Look at suspension on the mower it's self and you can add the suspension seat too.... Jim
