this is the worst mower deck Kubota has ever produced it leaves a strip of grass between the blades always has and apparently it always will. Kubota should recall this mower deck and offer you another one to replace it with.

I have had two other Kubota's prior to this one and I could not be more disappointed. I added the grass catcher attachment and it is darn near worthless. If the grass is the tiniest bit moist or long, it all gets stuck and you have to disassemble the catcher, clean it all out and do it all again in a few minutes. It also leaves a trail of the cut grass behind it. After only 40 hours of use and I am ready to throw in the towel on this one. Looks like I will be heading to John Deere.

This is the third rideon of this model i have owned. The first two were great how ever the one i have now is dreadful. While under warranty it has blown two head gaskets,had the carburetor replaced and still severely backfires when turning the motor off after doing a couple of hours mowing.

This mower has been nothing but a headache from day 1. Cut is uneven and constant part replacement and repair work necessary. What a disappointment. Have always bought Kubota mowers and never will buy another, nor will I ever recommend one. Pulleys need constant replacement. Just JUNK. Repair/Replacement parts are expensive. Had in dealer for repair 3 times in first season.

i thaught i had a quality unit but i was wrong i will go to a different brand next time 100 hrs new belt pulleys on deck cost $500 dollars now the drive is stuffed its only done 200 hrs now i will never buy this brand again it has been serviced on time and has only been used by me not a very good product

Parts used within 50hours of use:
2 x tensioner pulleys
4 x deck belts
2 x deck drive belts
2 x drive belts
Cutting deck required straightening after 15 hours.
Won't cut grass. Flattens it rather than cutting it. Leaves a strip between blades.
Low engine power. Been to dealer 3 times.
This is without question the worst purchase I have ever made.
Signed Totally Disappointed with my mower

Kubota T2380A-48 Tractor Mower chosen over prior major brands. This unit built better. Much easier to use to go forward and back to mow in tight space and there is red blinking light to let.you know it is bidirectional mode. Product advertised as 23hp Kohler motor. Delivered unit just built this morning had label with 22hp Kohler??

Why tractor mower? I have lawnmower trailer attached to tractor mower's trailer bracket loop hole to attach small trailer to pick up fallen broken tree branches off mow areas. This saves wear and tear on the blades.

Prior brand 54" ride tractor mower, spindles replaced 3 times.. The new delivered unit (unused), had bent spindle.. New replacement belt kept coming off after install..

had a 2380 mower at a school 5 days a week never gave me any trouble great on all types of ground great ride change one drive belt in 2 years very good on fuel easy to mow around buildings starts first time ever time no problems on slope ground

Just not a Mower I would buy again.
No, it is not really easy to maintain, burns Belts very easy, also Cuts Grass VERY uneven, can't adj. it at all to stay even.
Comfort to ride is about only thing I DO like about this mower.
It is easy on fuel of coarse that could be because one is constantly replacing belts or adj. Cutting level on Deck.
& mower is sitting idle most of the time.
Do yourself a favor & stay away from this model. Lots of other choices to choose from.

I have had no problems with the lawn mower but the mower deck is not worth a crap it has the Infinity Series Deck with speakers one blade turns one way one blade turns the other but it leaves a strip of grass between the two blades have replace the blades twice and it still does it from day one not a very good mower deck design

I recommend this lawn mower it has a lot of cutting power along with a great cut better than the other lawn mowers i owend. The belts are still like brand new and have over 75 hours on lawn mower. Very, Very happy with the Kubota.

Like others here I am dissapointed in the Kubota T2080 I purchased because I believed Kubota was a quaity product, Its abiity to mow the grass without going over it 2 or 3 times is disappointing. It has from day has left a strip between the blades, I have had it back twice and it is no different. Just chopped out the second drive belt and at $90 each it is a rip off. (appreciate anyone telling me where to by after market in Melbourne). Seriously thinking of selling on ebay and getting another Husqvarna much better mower for the price.
Looks good and the height adjustment.
Overpriced spares and poor mowing

We have had a T2080 now for 18 months. The machine has destroyed two horrendously expensive drive belts in no time. Looking for an aftermarket belt for the next time. When turning it leaves an uncut section in the middle,( very annoying ). This machine replaced an old dunger Cox which cut the grass much better but had other problems. Kohler engine is v good. Lack of traction on hilly terrain a problem.
- seems to be made a bit better than the cheapies. - good engine - comfortable
- super expensive spares - not enough protection for the belts - super expensive spares - crap cut quality when turning - super expensive spares
