Ferris IS 5000 Review
Great Mower
Posted by Stanley Dean on 07/23/2014
I have owned this mower for 4 yrs. now, and have not had any issues with it so far. I mow about 1.5-2 acres a week for most of 9 months, and sometimes more. It has performed flawlessly since day one.
My neighbors each have a Cub Cadet and a Toro in similar sizes as mine, and they both have had to have repair work a couple times in less than 4 yrs.

REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Pros: The spring suspension really helps smooth out the bumps as compared to a rigid suspension. Something my back really appreciates.
Cons: The roll bar needs to be able to fold down. Poor traction on slopes, but at same time the rear tires tend to dig out the grass in tight turns.
