“The 42" YT3000 hydrostatic tractor was worth waiting for.”

I finally gave in and admitted that it was time to look at lawn tractors. I had mowed my 3/4 acre lawn with a self-propelled mower for years, but this year I had enough. As a woman, I have to admit that I was a bit intimidated by using a tractor on my hills and around all my garden beds. I spent several weeks reading reviews from consumers and test-driving riding mowers at several different stores. I had a budget and several brands were available in my price range, but the Craftsman YT3000 series kept coming out on top. My tractor arrived yesterday and after a quick tour of the buttons, levers and manual, I set off to mow a three-week long lawn with my newly installed mulching kit. The tractor went right up my hills without a problem and the tight turning radius allowed me to get very close to all of my beds. I actually mowed over the area twice to get everything mulched to my satisfaction, but did two cuts in less than half the time it used to take me to push my other mower. My lawn looks beautiful and I can't wait for next weekend so I can do this all over again.
