Strengths Looks good, Has good reputation.

Weaknesses Front wheels toe in. No adjustment on rods,just preformed. The toe in looks like you turned the wheel to the left for one wheel and turned to the right for the other.When you go forward the tires drag side ways.Would probably tear grass as you go forward.Had to buy a 79.00 mulch kit.

Overall Dealed said that was normal. Told them to put it back on the trailer and want my 1850 money back. Very saddened by the quality of the front end.Looked at other lawn tractors and had adjustable front rods to correct the problem.My old 15 year old MTD never looked like that.
