Well if you want your lawn to look awesome and not take a long time to mow this is your next lawnmower! Exceptional value but it is not as strong as other simplicity mowers. With that said your neighbos John Deere is no match. With grooming wheels your lawn will look like a baseball field -- cool I know! Even if you are a space cadet and don't go in a straight line it looks awesome. The fifty inch deck manacures the lawn while you sip on the beer it keeps cold in the beverage holder. Which is right next to the power connection for charging your cell phone! That's right mow lawn and keep tabs on your friends via Facebook. America has never looked so bright! Oh and the leaves in the fall -- not a problem as this machine has plenty of power! Totally cool unless you like pre raking your lawn? If you do get a John Deere! It will look good sitting there while you rake plus I like the looks of a John Deere being worthless and all get out. Why pay more for that!

My simplicity riding lawn mower is easily the best mower I've ever had.   Compared to the Cub Cadet, other John Deers, Toroand others--this mower outlasts, is more easily manuevered around tight turns, and never needs repairs beyond blade sharpening.  Our previous Simplicity lasted 16 years and probably could have lasted another 16 if we hadn't decided to upgrade.  This mower was a little more expensive than most, but the value is obviously there.  It starts up first time every time, can turn on a much smaller radius, manages a steady speed and can mow up hills as well as along them without any problem.  We chose to get a 48 inch deck which might be too wide for some yards so make sure you define what your needs are.  The larger deck means fewer passes, but if you have a lot of landscaping you have to mow around you may want to get a smaller deck so you can pass thru it without spraying grass on your flowers or tearing up the sides.
