Poor construction
I have had one of these for 10 months and I just snapped to clutch linkage! The problems started in January 2014 when I noticed 2 cracks, one on each side of the firewall where it connects to the main chassis. That was repaired under warranty. The dealer said this was very uncommon and had never seen this happen to any lawn mower. The second problem was the Briggs & Stratton Engine.

em, a snapped clutch linkage. Now I can't even get the tractor into gear! What a joke. Never buy ANY Rover ride on mower, they will only cost you extra in the long run.

When it wasn't at the local service station Flimsy design and poor construction.

A spring (similar to trampoline spring) broke from under my ride-on, I could still engage the cutting deck blades but could not drive the rear ride-on wheels, I have the new spring but I am not sure exactly where it attaches, I think it tensions the idler pulley but would be useful to know where, any help would be appreciated

Hey guys the mower has worked great, but it started losing power to mow, put some bad fuel in I think, so drained it had just wont get the revs up again.
No smoke no noises start just like normal but lacks power won’t even run the blades.

I'm looking at purchasing one of these and have agreed on a price of $800 would it be worth it considering all the bad reviews on this product?

they can be all right if treated with extreme care but once out of warranty your pretty much on your own when it comes to repairs which can be difficult in some circumstances. It is up to you though. if your good at coming up with solutions to the issues that the product can throw up and do your own repairs I would say go for it. if not i would go with something else.
