Bought the MX4250 with a mulching kit in 2017 after Toro was recommended by my father in law who had a Z diesel. Terrible choice as mine has been back to shop for a replacement electric brake, new carburetor, and both hydros replaced under warranty last month. Now losing drive on one hydro when hot (just replaced last month) and have been told it will have to be replaced again, thankfully still under warranty but seriously? Because of this issue now takes me 4 hours of what I could mow in a hour with a new hydro that has less than 15 hours since being replaced. Over $7500 to purchase with mulching kit I am not impressed.

Bought mx5050 from dealer, brand new. $6300. Has now 70 hours,have broken 4 drive belts. At 40 hours central spindle bearings failed. Now at 70 hours another spindle bearing has failed. Been back to dealers now 3 times. They keep it from 2 weeks to nearly a month each time they have had it. Total lemon.

Great ride on mower, we have about 20+ trees and it's so easy to manouver around them. We are also on a bit of a slope and you do have to be careful turning on slopes but never had a problem there either. We have had it two years, would recommend.

The catcher is the biggest waste of money. Make sure your in a drought to use the catcher. The slightest bit of moisture (no good for couch lawns) and it clogs leaving the lawn a mess. Told to upgrade to larger model or downgrade.
Otherwise have had no problems just don't put on a catcher.

Do not buy one worst mower I’ve owned neads jump starting every time I use it (about 6 times) battery buggered only charges when it wants to and won’t move when not charging if jump start it. Doesn't turn off unless wiggle the key and first start up engine seems like it got to much comp even with a car jumping it. Starts with handles inward an takes off lmao. Sick to death of the deck coming off its hangers every time touches anything slightly from either side. both front tyres go flat between mows. Tears up the grass when turning fast or slow. 7 grand of junk by the time spent pumping up tryes jump starting and fixing the deck hangers it be faster with a push mower. first an last ever toro.

I love this mower. It is so fast and does a great job, but it is not free of cons.
Being a Zero Turn, it is no good on slopes. Gentle slopes are fine, but anything above a 4 to 1 slope, you will end up facing the wrong way. Especially if the ground is a little greasy.
If you are too harsh on the turns, you will rip holes in your yard. I mow around fence posts and I have dug a 10cm hole in the yard because I hit the same spot each time.
But I don't regret buying this mower at all. It is so much faster than a tractor style mower and makes easy work of mowing around obstacles.

great lawnmore, never had to sharpen the blades, fuel efficient, easy to maintain, doesnt skip a beat, easy to ride, easy to use, haven't service it yet. I would recommend this to all my family and friend's. It does really save time when you have to cut acres of grass.

If you have want to shred time not only grass you can’t go wrong. Deliberated for ages between lawn tractor and zero turn then what brand. I am happy with decision....... zero turn and Toro......once I got my head around driving it that is. Won’t go back to a lawn tractor again and love the new machine! Halved my mowing time on my three acre block.
