I owned a CubCadet RZT 50 for 11 years and was the best mower I’ve ever had… That is until I bought the Ultima ZT1. This mower is robust, tough, mows like a dream and is comfortable to ride. I bought mine in May 2019 after I wore out my RZT 50 and, man, has Cub Cadet went to the next level. It has cut my time spent mowing.. It has cut my time spent mowing in half. Mower came delivered and already assembled. Very pleased with it. Easy to use and didn’t take lo.. Easy to use and didn’t take long to get use to driving a zero turn. I have a rough yard and I’m glad I opted for the larger tires and Kawasaki engine. Engine came without oil. But, it must have had some already in it. Two quarts way overfilled it and a full quart needed to be drained. Check as you add. So far so good, there are several videos on YouTube claiming deck vibrations and stragglers when.. So far so good, there are several videos on YouTube claiming deck vibrations and stragglers when cutting. Mine cuts beautifully and doesn’t have vibration issues. I chose this one because of bigger tires, comfy seat and headlights. The bigger tires make it ride really nice and harder to get stuck! Nice very well made. Gives a very good grass cut. Very pleased with the new Club Cadet Ultima ZT1, it.. Very pleased with the new Club Cadet Ultima ZT1, it is doing a wonderful job on my lawn the performance is excellent. Great mower n good price. We are loving our new Bumblebee!!! This is by far the best mower I’ve ever owned. Runs like a top with zero problems. I would definitely recommend this Ultima ZT1 50 inch to everyone. Expensive, but I love it. Its exactly what I wanted. Ive had the mower for a month now. Runs and mows great. It is a grass eating monster! Almost makes me like cutting grass again! I have had this mower for just over a month. I live on 2 acres with a fairly steep hill in back… I live on 2 acres with a fairly steep hill in back, I previously had a Troy Built 50′ Mustang ZTR. This Cub Cadet mower is wonderful in every aspect and FAR superior to the Troy Built. It handles beautifully and gives a great cut. It makes short work of my front and back yards. I highly recommend this mower to anyone looking for a quality zero turn. It looks really cool as well. This exceeded all of my expectations! The driver was courteous and helpful! The quality of the machine and cut are unparalleled! Great employee Beth B. Easy setup, mowed two times so far everything going fine… Easy setup, mowed two times so far everything going fine. Cant believe how awesome this mower has been. Only used 4 times for 1 acre residential yard so far and I love it. 1/2 time of tractor. This is a solid well built mower with an engine you can trust. I’ve had many mowers and this has.. I’ve had many mowers and this has quickly became my favorite! All around good machine. I mow 2 acres with it.. I mow 2 acres with it and it has cut my time down a lot from a 52′ lawn tractor used previously. So far so good. Only used it 3 times. AT 20+ hours – Very Happy with my ZT1 50. This is an update to my earlier review. After 20+ hours cutting my 2 acres with the ZT1 50 everything about it is great. I have no issues on slopes and the cut looks great every single time. I have zero issues with deck vibrating or starting that others have mentioned. Over all this is a GREAT product. Great machine , handles easy , a 5 Except don’t do slopes well. Great mower, I cut a section of the yard at my new house that was let go it was 8 inches tall. With the depth cutting dial it was easy to adjust heights as I cut it down over a few passes. I have that area of the lawn back under control and it looks great. Over all was as I had expected Awesome Mower that works Great. Well-thought-out design and solid build. Overall a very well-thought-out design and excellent build quality. Love the open concept with easy access to the engine for oil and filter changes. Removable floor plate for easy access to the belts and pullys is also a plus. Deck is very easy to detach for blade chsnges. Extremely comfortable seat and lap bar handle grips. Love that the lap bars are fully adjustable. Love the deck height adjustment. There are a few things holding me back from giving this 5 stars, though. My biggest complaint is that the deck only has 3 points of contact instead of 4, affecting deck stability. The deck wash system is so-soyou’ll still have to scrape the deck from time to time. Four-ply instead of two-ply tires would have been nice. Also, would it have really been that hard for Cub Cadet to include a seat cable to keep the seat from falling forward when accessing the battery and fuel tank? It’s standard on the ZT2, but I think it’s something essential and should be standard on the ZT1. Metal springs instead on ABS plastic under the seat would have made for a smoother ride. Overall I’m very impressed what Cub Cadet has done with this mower and I think it’s the best you can get at this price point. Fast precise mower even in reverse.. Fast precise mower even in reverse. Overall great mower so far. It makes the mowing so.. It makes the mowing so easy and quick! Well built, easy to maneuver, easy access for repairs and..

This mower is great quiet engine lots of power i really like it. So far its great. Tested out just about all of them before I bought this one. Im a big guy and this one is fully adjustable to fit small or large people. Some of the others would not work for me. One monster machine that handles all my cutting needs. Considering the size, it maneuvers easily and very quiet. Love the look cuts good so far is great.. Love the look cuts good so far is great but is brand new but Im hoping that it would still perform the same within the time. Was ready to use very nice cut so far I.. Was ready to use very nice cut so far I liked. Loce the design, light, run well. I have 15 hours on this mower. So far, it has exceeded my expectations. I cut one acre of relativ.. I cut one acre of relatively flat lawn, and I use it to cut the perimeter of a 4 acre horse pasture next to fencing. It has worked well. I also have a shallow road-side ditch in my front yard. I was told a zero turn mower would not handle the ditch. But, this mower has been able to keep the ditch well manicured by using the easy height adjustments. This is important due to the amount of rain we’ve had recently. I have a few acres with multiple obstacles and have cut my time 40 per cent compared to a 48 inch deck tractor. The owners manual from Cub is sort of chintzy but engine manual is o. Much improved over previous generation ZTR mowers. First use was awesome. Seat is especially comfortable as is the foot deck mat. Speed was very fast, cutting height selection was so easy and so many grass height levels to choose from. I really like the LED headlights for the fall nights coming soon. This mower got much better traction than my other ZTR, no more left rear wheel spinning. Only things I would change would be to have an easy-adjust seat (kind of a hassle to take bolts out to adjust it) and the handles have too far of a throw to get to top speed. I might also add a USB port for cell phones too, just saying. Replaced a 10 year old Cub Cadet model. The changes made to the machine are incredible. My yard has many.. My yard has many uneven spots and the 50 inch deck keeps perfect with cutting too low. No complaints as of yet. Great mower, awesome cut and nice ride. Great mower Ive had for a couple months now. Stripes good and is comfortable to ride. I love the mower so far! First zero turn and.. First zero turn and cannot see myself going back to a regular rider. Mower met all my expectations..

Set-up was easy, got used to the steering in about 15 minutes and then easy to control speed and quick turns. Cut my need to use a push mower altogether to cut the patches I couldn’t get too with a regular riding mower so all I need now is this machine and a string trimmer, so my total mowing time cut down to 1/3 of the time. Also, very powerful suction and discharge so no stray grass blades left standing. Overall – very happy with this machine. Now have time to do other things than cutting grass.

This is my third Cub Cadet Zero turn, and the previous two were great, but this one is by far the best mower I have ever used. More power, and better control. I have only had the mower for les than 2 weeks but so far, im thrilled with it. MTD was really good to work with on this. HD was OK, but I got a little run around, nothing too bad. I’ve just used it a few times, but it mows.. I’ve just used it a few times, but it mows really well and has a good clean cut. I like the easy controls and the Kawasaki engine. So far a great choice! So far so good! If I could offer your R and D guys a suggestion…. Electric hub motors built into the front wheels to provide 4×4 drive without major redesign. Cub Cadet Ultima Zero Turn Terrific Mower. The Ultimate Zero Turn 50′ mower is a truly excellent mower and does a significantly better job of creating a nice, level grass cutting. It is easy to start and very easy to adjust the cutting height with a foot pedal and dial. The deck design is especially good in that it has excellent discharge behavior and that translates to very good performance when using the bagger. I enjoy mowing again! I wish it had low range like my.. I wish it had low range like my Toro. Coming from a 20 year old tractor i love this… Coming from a 20 year old tractor i love this. It took 3 mows to get the hang of the zero turn. It was totally worth the investment and mowing the grass is fun and no longer a chore. If i had to do it again i would get the ZT2 with the wider and flatter tires because the ZT1 tires slip. I have only been able to use it for a.. I have only been able to use it for a few minutes, but my Dad likes it very much. Have not found anything about it I do not like. Cutting lawn is quickly and comfortable ride. I have hills and rough terrain. Mowes the hills well. Mowes rough area well at low speed. Excellent results on flat smooth lawn. Just bought this 50′ cub yesterday. First time out flat tire. Reason: The tire is a cheap two pl.. Reason: The tire is a cheap two ply’. So plan on purchasing the two 20×10 tires with a 4 ply tire same size. The original ones can be punctured with a stick on the ground as mine probably was. (mine had two holes in it) no nails or other metal pieces. Just a heads up. Otherwise happy with the tractors performance at this time. Only had it a week but so far so good! .. Only had it a week but so far so good! Cut our mowing time in half, sturdy, and easy to.. Cut our mowing time in half, sturdy, and easy to use! Absolutely love my new zero turn. I was a little nervous going from a tractor style to zeros turn.. I was a little nervous going from a tractor style to zeros turn, it took me no time at all to drive this thing like a boss. It’s so easy to drive my 5 year old drives it all over the yard. This is a tremendous value on a terrific machine. We almost bought an Ariens for the same price, but the seat is higher and much more comfortable. The Cub has a hitch which is optional on most. It handles and mows wonderfully. This sports the Kawasaki, which is even better than Kohler. It a good mower.. It a good mower. Assembly of the mower will be much easier if the crate is dismantled completely before installing.. Assembly of the mower will be much easier if the crate is dismantled completely before installing the separately packaged items seat, control arms, etc. The construction is robust, strong and very well engineered; the cutting results are the best we’ve seen among our other 3 ZT mowers! We are not a lawn business, we just have a very big lawn. It’s actually more fun than work to cut the grass with this excellent machine. My first zero turn. I moved down from a commercial Bad Boy Outlaw XP due to my having a smaller yard. I left a mower with four corner shock mounts and an air ride seat to a very stiff and rough ride. I do acknowledge having a yard that needs some work that will improve the ride. The KW engine is as I expected and the mower overall handles well and is very responsive. I haven’t had it long enough to judge overall performance. Starts easy and provides an even cut. Easy ride, great for our 3 acres.. Easy ride, great for our 3 acres. Love all the upgrades from my.. Love all the upgrades from my previous Cub Cadetl. Great mower, great engine. Does an excellent job. It does take some getting used to as far as knowing when the bags are full (if you get a grass catcher) Also wish there was a way of telling how much gas is in it while mowing. I just wish I would have gone with the power grass catcher. A great ride, low vibration and easy to use wich is ket to mowing over an acre and a half. Great machine for the price. I’ve had it for about a month and really like it. People around here call it the little yellow tank!! I wish it would go a little faster… It is a simple, sturdy, and well engineered unit. Great residential zero turn. I bought this mower about 1.5 months ago and wanted to wait to leave a review after a few cuts. Easy to maneuver and cuts evenly on a mostly flat yard. Just wished the rollers had more weight to make the grass bend more to show noticeable stripes in the yard. A little aeriation this fall and some KY31 seed and next season hope to have better results. Cuts mowing time in half compared to a lawn tractor. I have only had my mower for a week now. This is the first time I have owned a Zero turn mower ev.. This is the first time I have owned a Zero turn mower ever, initially I consulted some friends on the use of these types of machines and started off slow. So far so go, did not crash however the wife and daughter have not tried it as of yet. Big difference in mowing time from my Garden Tractor vs this ZT1 50. Oh my nocked off 1 hour first time out and I really took my time. As I get more confident and learn to change my old habits of how I mowed my lawn with the Tractor I should be able to mow the whole lawn in an hour. Good cut good power. Little small for 6’3′.. Little small for 6’3′ and could have not went on the cheap and not put arm rests on the seat. The mower is everything we hoped for. We switched the lapbars so we could turn and back it up. We would recommend this mower to everyone. Great machine finally someone build a strong residential z turn. I wish it had larger tires. I have gotten stuck a few times. It arrived on time easy to assemble cut the grass.. It arrived on time easy to assemble cut the grass great. The retainer for the right transmission was missing and I.. The retainer for the right transmission was missing and I had to install one. Went well after that. This mower has lots of power to mow heavy grass.. This mower has lots of power to mow heavy grass. Extremely easy to operate. The controls are very handy right at your side. I was impressed at how comfortable this mower is , even on very uneven ground. Love the deck washout. Unit was simple to assemble: couple of handles, bolt on the battery cables, and had to add about a half quart of oil (make certain to check the oil level). The unit started right up and drove it off the pallet. Have mowed twice now. Very level and clean cut. Cuts clippings very finely. The outlet shoot spreads the clippings well (keeps them from elevating and blowing all over). The 23HP Kawasaki does quite well, starts immediately and only need to push the throttle to half way at the most and it doesn’t bog down any. Very comfortable seat and leg room is good, even at 6’2′. Also, it does come with a hitch plate to bolt on so you can tow a cart or trailer around. 1.4acres, reduced mowing time by almost 20 minutes from using a 48′ tractor. Seek God while He may be found. Great mower for me. Cut my mowing time in half.. Cut my mowing time in half and lawn looks great. This is our 2nd Club Cadet. Our 1st on was.. Our 1st on was 11 years old and survived 6 kids mowing an acre lot so we decided to replace it with another one. I have used a borrowed zero turn before and I had a Yard Machine. Final choice, the Cub Cadet ZT1. Easy to operate, cuts great. Customer service is our top priority!
