Quality Problems - poor supply of repair parts

5 years ago
Bought this mower in February 2020, it did fine on our 2 acres the first year. HOWEVER, about a month into year two the drive pulley just fell out. The bolt attaching it to the shaft had sheared off inside of the shaft. Disappointing, but it's not perfect world and there are random bad bolts. Fortunately the mower was still under warranty. (It turns out that all Cub dealers won't do warranty work on equipment that they didn't sell - somewhat annoying, but that's a different complaint). When we did get it to a warranty repair shop we found out that the bolt had been cross threaded when assembled ( the assembler should have noticed that it was a little tough to tighten - but whatever). The only fix is to replace the shaft assembly which apparently includes a portion of the engine. It has now been almost seven weeks, in the shop and we still have not heard that the parts are in. Basically we will have had almost an entire season borrowing mowers while our year-old Cub sits in a repair shop gathering dust. Sad.

Pros and cons

19 days ago
Had my CC ZT1 54-inch mower for 3 years now. Pro: powerful motor, starts right up, mows grass evenly. Cons: bumpy ride is very stiff, grass clogs up underneath by the pulleys, if grass is even a little moist the drive wheels spin and rut the lawn, takes almost 2-1/2 gallons of gas to cut 2 acres of grass, not stable on any degree of incline especially if the grass is wet.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Very disappointed

a month ago
Very disappointed. Having starting issues. They will not cover under the manufacturer warranty. They say I should have spent hundreds of dollars on the extended warranty. They outsource the customer service to Africa. Couldn’t understand the person, loud noises in the background (sounded like they were fighting/ arguing.) I’m a 70 year old disabled veteran. Had to have someone pick up my cub cadet lawnmower and take it to river valley tractor for repairs and now I’ve got to have someone pick it up because they couldn’t get authorization to work on it even that’s where they told me to take it. Tractor supply couldn’t / wouldn’t help me either. Said I should have bought the warranty. So plan on adding $500 to the final amount of the item.
