Weaknesses Changing belts. In order to change the drive belt, because the engine pulley is pretty much stuck on, and you cant use anything to try and pry it off without damaging the pulley itself I had to TAKE OUT THE ENGINE to change the drive belt. I also had my gas tank crack along the seams from the mowers vibration. It is a pain to work on.
Overall Cuts grass just average. I have fooled with the deck non stop but still leaves high spots all over. I have to mow twice once each direction to get my lawn looking good.I will NEVER purchase any cub cadet in the future.

Strengths Looks like a really good mower
Weaknesses It's not a really good mower.
Overall I purchased this mower about two years ago thinking I was buying something that would last (CUB CADET). NOT. After only 200 hours, you would think it had 2000. I recently went back to where I purchased it to find out why gas was coming out of the fuel pump after running it about 30 minutes. The answer I got was it could be the fuel pump. Replaced it $26.00 NOT. Or it cold be the compresson. Or we really don't know. But since you're here. If you bring it in, we would be happy to check it out for you. But since the CUB CADET is such a crappy machine. We stopped selling them. Have a nice day.

Good tractor for the price. Easy on gasoline,easy to maintain.
Weaknesses Could use some more HP. My 1976 8hp Allis Chalmers has as much pulling power as the cub.
Overall Compares to the John Deeres and Kubotas I've owned

Weaknesses This is my first cub cadet. My grandfather had one so I thought it had a good reputation, but I must agree that this model is not what I expected.
The battery goes dead every few months. (It seems to suck the life out of every battery I buy. Every three years I need to replace all the belts. Finally, I agree with the other reviewers it doesn't cut very well. I admit I have a rought and hilly yard, but it always looks like a bad haircut. When you take a turn the mowing deck never stays level (I have adjusted it several times). I leaves terrible high spots.
I bought it at LOwes and the sales person promised they would have parts in the future. Well the next year they dropped carrying cub cadets and I have a terrible time finding belts.
Overall Overally, I would think twice about buying another cub cadet. Its not my grandfathers lawn mower, and I waiting for something big to break so I can get something different.

Strengths It is pretty until the paint flakes off.
Weaknesses If you can think of it, it is weak.
Overall Waste of money. Think the manager of the service department, Bill at 330-225-2600 Ext. 7295 is completely nuts. Must be related to the owner of the company or something because I can't figure out any other reason why he should be permitted to speak with anyone, let alone customers.

Weaknesses Everytime you move the pedal to reverse the mower shuts off. I understand that they're a newer model that has a by pass on the key switch. (Which I had bought that model.
Overall Not a bad unit. About average. Probably wouldn't fight you if you tried to buy it from me.
