"Only had this a month, but it's been a good tractor so far. Had to do a little work to it, but nothing too major. Bushings on the front axle pin needed replaced. One down side: OEM parts are pricey and not many parts are after market. WIX makes filters for it, Fram makes an oil filter, which Walmart carries. It runs a 6 ft finish mower and 5 ft tiller with no problems. It has the hydro-static transmission, which seems to work well. Frame bolts at the rear of the engine need to be checked periodically, can come loose."
