Which John Deere Mower Should I Buy?

Man operating the X739 mower to mow residential lawn

If you’re shopping for your next John Deere mower, you’ll quickly find there’s no shortage of options. There are many factors to consider, such as your lawn size, budget, preferences, and more. Our team at AGUP are experts in all things John Deere and are here to help you make that decision easier. We will compare some of the main differences between John Deere mower types and suggest our favorite models. If you ever have any questions, feel free to stop by any of our locations in Arkansas and Mississippi for help.

Zero Turn Vs. Riding Mower

The first step in your John Deere mower journey is to decide whether you want a lawn tractor or a zero-turn mower. While both are beneficial in their own ways, it depends on your budget and needs to determine which is best for you. Lawn tractors are typically more affordable than their ZTrak counterparts and excel in smaller to medium-sized properties. Thanks to attachments that can easily be hooked up to them, lawn tractors are also well-suited to assist in several landscaping tasks. Zero-turn mowers bring speed and maneuverability to your properties to get mowing done quickly. They tend to be preferred for landscaping professionals or those with medium to large lawns. However, this added performance tends to come at a higher price point. Our team at AGUP can help you decide whether a lawn tractor or zero-turn mower would best fit your needs. 

John Deere Lawn Tractors

At AGUP, you can pick from five different series of lawn tractors for your properties. The 100 and 200 series lawn tractors are a favorite amongst homeowners with small properties, as they can support up to 2 acres at a time. The X series lawn tractors provide upgraded performance and additional power for hilly terrain or hauling heavy supplies. See our lawn tractor series options below:
