42A Mower Deck underside 42A Mower Deck underside

Deep mower-deck stamping gives excellent cut quality. It allows the cut and suspended material room to exit the deck without getting recut:

  • Reducing the amount of recutting enables more power to be used to cut incoming grass, which greatly improves mower capacity.
    • Helps maintain excellent cut quality at faster mowing speeds
  • Clean flow of material out of discharge area prevents cut material from interfering with cutting the incoming grass, making it possible for the blades to cut incoming material cleanly.
  • Even in mulching mode, cut evenness is improved compared to other designs because the additional depth allows for continuous circulation, optimal recutting, and an even distribution of clippings.
  • Exact Adjust deck-leveling system allows for easy and accurate leveling of the mower deck
Productivity - gets the job done fast

Side-discharge chute on Accel Deep 42A Mower Deck Side-discharge chute on Accel Deep 42A Mower Deck

Deep mower-deck stamping gives high productivity, which gets the job done fast. It allows the cut and suspended material room to exit the deck quickly, reducing the amount of recutting so more power is available to process incoming grass:

  • Greatly improves mowers capacity to maintain excellent mowing performance in difficult mowing conditions and at higher speeds

Large discharge opening is both high and wide to handle more material:

  • Gives a smooth, even discharge of clippings at all mowing speeds
  • Reduces the chance of plugging, especially important when operating in wet, thick, or dense grass and when bagging
  • Cut-and-throw chute has a large, optimized inlet which aids in collecting material by using airflow from the large deck opening
Cleanliness - for the mower and the operator

The flat-top shape of the deck stamping is optimal for keeping itself and the operator clean:

  • There are few places to catch and hold material on top and underneath the deck.
    • Top of deck stays cleaner, reducing time and effort needed for cleaning and service
    • Underside of deck is self-cleaning to maintain optimum performance without buildup of material to interfere with the flow of air and clippings
    • Less need to clean and remove buildup of material from underside deck
  • The depth of the Accel Deep mower deck minimizes the amount of material that escapes from the front of the deck
    • Limited amount of material to drift onto the operator and mower deck
    • Even flow of material discharged out the chute, less recutting results in larger pieces that are less likely to end up on the operator
    • Mulching prevents the discharge of material completely and MulchControl makes mulching a practical solution for most mowing situations.

Cleaning a mower deck, both top and bottom, is one of the most frequent maintenance activities:

  • The flat-top design reduces places for material to build up and makes material that does collect easy to remove.

MulchControl™ system provides superior mulching performance and rapid conversion

Lever-action MulchControl lever (shown on 48A mower deck) Lever-action MulchControl lever (shown on 48A mower deck)

Electric one-touch MulchControl switch Electric one-touch MulchControl switch

The optional MulchControl system makes mulching more practical for many mowing situations because it not only does an excellent job of mulching, but it also allows the mower to be easily converted for times when it is more desirable to side discharge or collect the lawn material. Advantages of mulching grass clippings include:

  • Creates a beautiful looking lawn
  • Smaller grass clippings disappear into the lawn canopy
  • Reduces fertilizer needs
  • Grass clippings are not blown onto the operator, driveways, or flower beds
  • No need to dispose of bags of clippings
How MulchControl works

MulchControl baffle open (shown on 48A mower deck) MulchControl baffle open (shown on 48A mower deck)

MulchControl baffle closed (shown on 48A mower deck) MulchControl baffle closed (shown on 48A mower deck)

MulchControl is an innovative, simple design that is easy to use and maintain:

  • The MulchControl system includes an adjustable MulchControl baffle near the discharge chute and fixed baffles to control the flow of material under the deck.
  • The MulchControl handle, or an electric one-touch actuator, is on top of the mower deck and is used to open and close the MulchControl baffle.
  • When the MulchControl baffle is open, most of the material flows freely out the discharge deflector or into a material collection system.
  • When the MulchControl baffle is closed, material stays within the deck and gets chopped into mulch and deposited in the turf.

MulchControl is well-suited to the following mowing situations:

  • For operators who usually mulch, but side discharge when grass gets too long
  • For operators who usually side discharge, but would like to close the chute to control clippings in some areas
  • For operators who always mulch a main lawn, but often side discharge secondary lawns
  • For operators who collect clippings but want to go farther before emptying the material collection system

MulchControl puts the operator in control of the clippings.

Electric one-touch MulchControl

Electric one-touch MulchControl systems shift the MulchControl baffle using an electric actuator that is operated by a dash-mounted switch.

Electric one-touch MulchControl switcht Electric one-touch MulchControl switcht

Electric one-touch MulchControl actuator (shown on 42A mower deck) Electric one-touch MulchControl actuator (shown on 42A mower deck)

Operators can convert between modes without interrupting the mowing process, making it possible to change between modes:

  • When approaching driveways or flower beds where clippings would be undesirable
  • When a breeze blows clippings back onto the operator
  • For side discharge mowing only the areas of the property where grass is too thick for mulching
  • With 48A and 54A Mower Decks, for collecting only the areas of the property where grass is too tall or thick for mulching
MulchControl limitations

While in the side discharge mode, MulchControl still mulches about one third of the material. Therefore, the side discharge mode is essentially a partial mulch mode. This can be an advantage when side discharging or bagging, as it helps to reduce the amount of material being discharged. Other times this could work as a disadvantage:

  • When cutting strong southern grasses, such as Zoysia and Bermuda
  • When cutting in wet, high growth conditions, such as those found in the Pacific Northwest United States
  • When optimum bagging and lawn clean­up is desired
  • 42A Mower Deck requires a MulchControl baffle be removed to install the bagger chute

When bagging with MulchControl on a 48A or 54A mower deck, the MulchControl baffle can be opened or closed with the Power Flow™ blower installed. The Power Flow blower runs without material when the baffle is closed.

Exact Adjust ports and onboard deck-leveling tools make precise deck adjustments easy

Deck-leveling gauge and hex adjusting tool stored under tractor seat Deck-leveling gauge and hex adjusting tool stored under tractor seat

Exact Adjust access holes Exact Adjust access holes

A mower deck must be level side-to-side and properly adjusted front-to-rear to give the best cutting performance. A removable onboard deck-leveling gauge and a hex-key tool are provided to make adjustment easy. They are securely stored under the tractor seat.

Exact Adjust leveling ports are provided on each side of the operator platform above the mower-level adjusting bolts. With the hex-shaped tool, they provide convenient access to allow quick and easy adjustment of the mower for the best-cut quality of cut.

The Exact Adjust feature is standard on all Select Series™ X300 and X500 Tractors:

  • There is no need to reach under the fender deck while making the mower-level adjustment.
  • Onboard deck-leveling gauge, Exact Adjust ports, and the hex tool work together.
    • Level the mower deck side to side
    • Set the correct amount of rake (front-to-back deck orientation)
    • Calibrate the cutting height to the cut-height adjusting knob setting
  • Exact Adjust simplifies leveling the mower deck if equipped with a Power Flow™ blower.
    • To give the best cut, mower level should be adjusted if alternately mowing with and without blower installed. The Exact Adjust feature makes this easy.

Consult the operator's manual for the correct adjusting procedures for each tractor model. Basic adjusting steps to properly level the mower deck include:

  • Park the tractor on a level surface.
  • Inflate tires to the correct pressure.
  • Consult the label for the cutting-height knob that is located on the console of the machine. This label shows deck-leveling position and location of deck-leveling adjustment points.

Cut height adjusting knob Cut height adjusting knob

  • Set mower cutting-height knob to the correct deck-leveling position.
  • Adjust mower wheels as necessary so they do not contact the ground surface.
  • Remove the onboard deck-leveling gauge that is located under the seat.
  • Using the Exact Adjust ports and tool, adjust mower deck side-to-side level so the deck-leveling gauge just slips under the left and right lower deck rim at the designated adjustment points. The location of adjustment points varies slightly between decks.
    • Left- and right-rear adjustment points are under the deck rim near the rear mower wheels, if equipped.
  • Adjust mower deck front-to-back level, if necessary.
    • Loosen rear nuts equally on each side of front lift rod.
    • Turn front nut equally on each side clockwise to raise front of mower or counterclockwise to lower it until gauge just slips under the front adjustment point.
    • Tighten rear nuts after adjustment is complete.
  • Return the gauge to its storage position.

NOTE: The adjusting tool supplied with the tractor is an 8-mm ball-hex key, part number M162737. The rounded end allows for some misalignment with the bolt as the deck is adjusted.

7P Poly Utility Cart 7P Poly Utility Cart

#

Every owner of a John riding lawn and garden product is a potential customer for a high-quality, affordable utility cart. Utility carts can be used to haul a variety of materials including firewood, lawn debris, sand, dirt, mulch, garden tools, plants, and bushes.

Utility carts are designed, painted, and decaled to be compatible with other John Deere equipment.

NOTE: For proper braking and operation, the loaded weight of the cart should never exceed the weight of the tractor, or other towing unit, plus the operator. The loaded weight of any equipment towed by an EZtrak™ or ZTrak™ mower should not exceed 250 lb (113.4 kg). See the appropriate vehicle pages for the weight of the vehicle and the mower deck.

7P Poly Utility Cart 7P Poly Utility Cart

  • The cart has a premium molded, high-density polyethylene box construction.

  • Compression molding process allows polyethyl­ene to be the optimum thickness in all areas for superior strength and durability.

  • Polyethylene body will not rust or dent; it stays looking new longer.

  • 0.75-in. (2-cm) x 2-in. (5-cm) stake pockets are molded in to make the addition of side extensions easy.

  • Two vertical 0.75-in. (2-cm) molded channels on each side allow easy use of dividers to separate the box into two or three compartments.

  • Ribs in the box bottom add strength and prevent the shovel from hitting bolts when emptying the cart.

  • Sloped tailgate design makes emptying the box easier; there is no tailgate to loosen or remove.

  • Styling is compatible with other John Deere equipment.

  • Pneumatic tires provide turf tread for good flotation, shock absorption, and minimal rolling resistance.

  • Firewood
  • Lawn debris
  • Sand
  • Dirt
  • Mulch
  • Garden tools
  • Plants and bushes

The 10P Utility Cart is designed, painted, and decaled to be compatible with other John Deere equipment:

  • Large 650-lb (295-kg) capacity
  • 10-cu ft (283-L), heavy-duty, 0.25-in. (6.4-mm) thick poly bed
  • Will not dent or rust
  • 15x6 tubeless pneumatic tires with turf tread for maximum traction
  • Easy, hands-free foot pedal dump release
  • Steep dump angle for complete emptying

A convenient foot pedal dump release kit, LP48017, which now comes standard on all 10P and 17P carts is available to retrofit existing poly carts. This kit allows the operator to use both hands to lift the cart bed for more natural and efficient unloading.

Utility Cart, 17P Poly - LPPCT17JD

17P Utility Cart 17P Utility Cart

Every owner of a John Deere riding lawn and garden product is a potential user of a high-quality, affordable utility cart.


Utility carts can be used to haul a variety of materials:

  • Firewood
  • Lawn debris
  • Sand
  • Dirt
  • Mulch
  • Garden tools
  • Plants and bushes

Utility carts are designed, painted, and decaled to be compatible with other John Deere equipment.

Key features of the 17P Utility Cart:

  • 1,000-lb (454-kg), 17-cu ft (0.48-m3) load capacity.
  • Cart has premium molded polypropylene box construction.
  • Polypropylene body will not rust or dent, staying new-looking longer.
  • 0.75- x 2-in. (19- x 51-mm) stake pockets are molded in to make addition of side extensions easy.
  • Two vertical 0.75-in. (19-mm) molded channels on each side allow for easy use of dividers to separate the box into two or three compartments.
  • Ribs in box bottom add strength and prevent a shovel from hitting bolts when emptying the cart.
  • Sloped tailgate design makes emptying the box easier; no tailgate to loosen or remove.
  • Styling is compatible with other John Deere equipment.
  • 16x6.5 pneumatic tires with turf tread give good flotation, shock absorption, and minimal rolling resistance.
  • Wheels are mounted on a solid one-piece axle.
  • Wheels turn on iron/Oilite® bushings with grease fitting for long life.
  • Spring-loaded dump latch is easy to use.

A convenient foot pedal dump release kit, LP48017, which now comes standard on all 10P and 17P carts is available to retrofit existing poly carts. This kit allows the operator to use both hands to lift the cart bed for more natural and efficient unloading.

Mcs Chutes

Rear bagger chute for 42A Mower - BG20754

7-bu (247-L) two-piece rear bagger chute 7-bu (247-L) two-piece rear bagger chute

Upper chute with handle and full indicator Upper chute with handle and full indicator

The rear bagger chute for the 42-in. (107-cm) Accel Deep™ Mower Deck (42A) is required for use of the two-bag, 7-bu (247-L) rear bagger:

  • The chute is a two-piece design to allow easy installation at the mower deck, without the rear of the chute being encumbered by the hopper.
  • A convenient handle is included on the top section of the chute to make installation and removal easier.
  • The top section of the chute slides into the flexible hose that is attached to the hopper and is held securely to the bottom section with an easy-to-use bungee cord.
  • A fill indicator tells the operator when the bags are getting full.

Major components included with bagger chute Major components included with bagger chute

Toe guard with chute-install features and front baffle installed Toe guard with chute-install features and front baffle installed

The rear bagger chute attachment includes special bagging blades, a toe guard (A) with features for installing the bagger chute, and a front bagger baffle (B) to direct the material rearward into the bagger chute:

  • The replacement toe guard is intended to remain on the mower deck and to be used for any mower application - bagging, side discharging, or mulching.
  • A baffle to narrow the side-discharge opening (where the bagger chute is installed on the mower deck) and direct the material into the chute is provided with the rear bagger chute and needs to be bolted underneath the deck at the front.
    • This baffle may remain in place when the bagger chute is removed for side discharging material, however for ultimate side-discharge performance it could be removed.
    • This front baffle included with the bagger chute attachment is not required if the mower deck is equipped with the MulchControl™ attachment. The MulchControl front baffle can remain with the gate open for bagging and serves the same purpose.

Chute front pin inserted in tube located at end of toe guard Chute front pin inserted in tube located at end of toe guard

Installing the chute is easy:

  • First, slide the front mounting pin into the tube that is on the front end of the toe guard.
  • Next, swing the chute toward the back and lock it in place at the rear.

Rear chute latch Rear chute latch

Front mounting pin Front mounting pin

The bagger chute is securely held in place at the front and rear to provide a tight seal between the mower deck and the chute.

The rear latch is adjustable to allow for the optimum setting for easy use and a tight seal.

Rear MulchControl baffle removed to allow for chute installation Rear MulchControl baffle removed to allow for chute installation

The operator's manuals provided with the rear bagger chute and the MulchControl attachment should be used as the primary guide, however these tips may be helpful to keep in mind:

  • Both the rear bagger chute and the MulchControl attachment come with a baffle that bolts inside the mower deck along the front edge to narrow the discharge opening, which has been optimized for side discharging material, and direct the material into the bagger chute.
    • If the mower deck is equipped with MulchControl, the front bagger baffle included with the bagger chute is not used.
  • The front baffle, either the one included with the rear bagger chute or the one included with MulchControl (B), can remain in place for side discharging.
    • For ultimate side-discharge performance this baffle can be removed.
  • The optional MulchControl attachment includes a rear MulchControl baffle (A), held in by two carriage bolts, at the rear edge of the discharge opening. This baffle:
    • Must be removed for installation of the rear bagger chute, a 13-mm (0.51-in.) wrench is required (the bagger chute cannot be installed without removing this baffle)
    • Can remain removed for side discharging material
    • Must be re-installed for mulching
Mower blades

Mower blades shipped with the rear bagger chute Mower blades shipped with the rear bagger chute

High lift bagging blades are included with the chute. They provide optimum performance when bagging in difficult conditions, such as when the grass is moist, dense, or long:

  • High-lift bagging blades also work well when side discharging material.

Mulching blades are included with the MulchControl attachment. They can be used for mulching, side discharging, and bagging in most conditions.

The innovative opening design of the tractor shovel, combined with the lift height, assures complete emptying of material. The tractor shovel can also be used for scraping and grading by locking the shovel in the raised position.

Tractor recommendations and requirements:

  • Rear tractor ballast recommended for improved traction

  • Tire chains recommended for moving snow

  • No tractor requirements

Key features:

  • Can be used when upper part of shovel is locked in the raised position as a blade (without angling capability)

Fuel-Protect for gasoline engines, 8 oz (237 mL) - TY27534

8-oz (237-mL) Fuel-Protect gasoline stabilizer 8-oz (237-mL) Fuel-Protect gasoline stabilizer

John Deere Fuel-Protect gasoline stabilizer is a unique formula developed to ensure optimum performance and protection year-round:

  • Has corrosion preventers
  • For lawn and garden equipment and other gasoline-powered vehicles
  • Ensures quick starts in all two- and four-cycle engines
  • Use in gasoline, gasoline-oil mixture, and ethanol blends
  • Use to treat gas cans at each fill-up or use at every fill-up of vehicle
  • Keeps fuel fresh for 12 months
  • Contains a fuel injector and carburetor cleaner
  • 1 oz (29.6 mL) treats 2 gal. (7.6 L)

Always use fuel stabilizer in gasoline.Fuel sitting in gas tanks or gas containers for more than 30 days begins to degrade. Also, blended fuels and water in gasoline can form acids that corrode fuel-system components. Protect the investment - use John Deere fuel stabilizer with corrosion preventers and prevent hard starting, surging, lack of power, poor idle, flooding, and will not run or stay running conditions caused by poor-quality fuel. Ask a local John Deere dealer or visit JDParts.

X350 Tractor with Accel Deep Mower X350 Tractor with Accel Deep Mower

MulchControl for the 42-in. (107-cm) Accel Deep (42A) Mower Deck makes mulching more practical for many mowing situations because it not only does an excellent job of mulching but it also allows the mower to be easily converted for times when it is more desirable to side discharge or collect the lawn material. Advantages of mulching grass clippings include:

  • A beautiful looking lawn
  • Grass clippings not blown onto the operator, driveways, or flower beds
  • Less fertilizer use
  • Elimination of the effort needed to dispose of clippings
How MulchControl works

MulchControl baffle open MulchControl baffle open

MulchControl baffle closed MulchControl baffle closed

MulchControl is an innovative, simple design that is easy to use and maintain:

  • MulchControl includes baffles to control the flow of material under the deck.
    • When the MulchControl baffle is open, most of the material passes through the discharge opening.
    • When the MulchControl baffle is closed, the material stays within the deck and gets chopped into mulch and deposited in the turf.

MulchControl baffle closed MulchControl baffle closed

MulchControl handle MulchControl handle

  • The MulchControl handle is located on top of the mower deck and used to open and close the discharge baffle.
    • The operator is required to get off of the machine in order to engage or disengage mulch mode.
  • Changing from mulching to side discharging or vice versa takes only a few seconds.

MulchControl is well-suited to the following mowing situations:

  • Usually mulch, but side discharge when grass gets too long
  • Usually side-discharge, but would like to be able to close the chute to control clippings
  • Always mulch a main lawn, but often side discharge secondary lawns
  • Bag clippings, but want to go farther before emptying bags

MulchControl puts the operator in control of the clippings. The operator can have all the benefits of mulching with the ability to easily change to side discharging when needed.

MulchControl limitations

While in the side-discharge mode, MulchControl will still mulch about one third of the material. Therefore, the side-discharge mode is essentially a partial-mulch mode. This can be an advantage when side discharging or bagging, as it helps to reduce the amount of material being discharged. Other times this could work as a disadvantage:

  • When cutting strong southern grasses, such as Zoysia and Bermuda
  • When cutting in wet, high-growth conditions, such as those found in the Pacific Northwest United States
  • When optimum bagging and lawn clean-up is desired
  • 42A Mower Deck requires a MulchControl baffle be removed to install the bagger chute; see 42A versatility explanation for more information

One-touch MulchControl switch One-touch MulchControl switch

The 42-in. (107-cm) electric one-touch MulchControl attachment enhances versatility and productivity. A mower deck equipped with electric one-touch MulchControl not only does an excellent job of mowing and mulching, but it can also be quickly converted to side discharge or mulch mode with the touch of a switch:

  • Easily converts while mowing from side discharge mode to mulch mode or vice versa
  • In mulch mode, controls clippings dispersion in unwanted areas (driveways, landscape beds, near buildings, windows, parking lots, etc.)
  • Reduces cleanup time needed to dispose of clippings
  • Will reduce the amount of material entering a material collection system because, even in the side discharge mode, MulchControl will mulch about one third of the material due to the additional baffles under the mower deck
How electric one-touch MulchControl works

A tractor equipped with the electric one-touch MulchControl attachment delivers unprecedented levels of productivity and versatility. A convenient, dash-mounted switch provides operators the ability to change between side discharging and mulching. A heavy-duty discharge baffle opens and closes easily with the touch of the dash-mounted switch.

MulchControl electric switch MulchControl electric switch

MulchControl electric actuator MulchControl electric actuator

A dependable electric actuator is used to close and open the discharge baffle. The mower deck can easily be converted from side discharge mode to mulch mode or vice versa in a few seconds by activating the switch.

    • When the MulchControl baffle is closed, the material stays within the deck and gets chopped into mulch and deposited in the turf.
  • The MulchControl electric switch used to open and close the discharge baffle is located on the tractor dash.
    • The operator is not required to get off of the machine in order to engage or disengage mulch mode.

MulchControl is well suited to the following mowing situations:

  • For operators who usually mulch, but side discharge when grass gets too long
  • For operators who usually side discharge, but would like to be able to close the chute to control clippings
  • For operators who always mulch a main lawn, but often side discharge secondary lawns

MulchControl puts the operator in control of the clippings. The operator can have all the benefits of mulching with the ability to easily change to side discharging when desired.

With electric one-touch MulchControl, operators can convert between modes without interrupting the mowing process, making it practical to change between modes as conditions require:

  • When approaching clean areas like driveways or flowerbeds where clippings would be undesirable
  • When a breeze might blow clippings back onto the operator
  • For side discharge mowing only the areas of the property where grass is too tall or thick for mulching

Advantages of MulchControl include:

  • Performance is improved.
    • Mulching is beneficial because it returns the clippings to the ground as fertilizer, which promotes lawn growth.
    • Clippings are much smaller, which allows them to fall into the grass and be removed from view.
    • Unsightly grass clippings are not blown onto driveways or into flower beds.
    • Fertilizer use is reduce and provides associated environmental benefits.
  • Uptime is increased.
    • Operators can convert quickly between modes, making it possible to change between mulching and side discharging as conditions require.
    • Mulching heavy, thick material can significantly reduce mower productivity. The ability to switch from mulch to side discharge mode ensures productivity, especially in grass too tall or thick to mulch effectively.
  • Cost of operation is reduced.
    • Controlling clipping dispersion reduces cleanup time.

Tire Chains

TerraGrip traction belts (pair) for 20x10-8 non-Turf Saver, 20x10-10, and 20x9-8 tires - LP39856

TerraGrip Traction Belt TerraGrip Traction Belt

#

Protect your driving surface. TerraGrip Traction Belts offer enhanced traction on snow, mud, dirt, wet asphalt, and wet concrete surfaces. They will not scratch or chip concrete, asphalt, or aggregate drives or walkways. The proven reliability of the traditional steel chain attachment system is used and combined with the performance and durability of reinforced rubber slats. The rubber slats wrap around the tire so only rubber touches the driving surface. The result is aggressive traction without the risk of surface damage, that can happen with traditional chains.

Features:
  • Rubber slats surround the tire and will not damage driveways or sidewalks.
  • No steel touches the driving surface.
  • No-tools installation utilizes a traditional steel chain attachment system.
  • Traction is improved on all surfaces, especially loose material (snow, dirt, mud, sand, etc.).
  • TerraGrip Traction Belts are approved for John Deere X300, X500 M-T, and X700 Series Tractors.

Additional information for 4-wheel-steer tractor models:

  • X700 Series – requires wheel spacer sold separately
  • X500 Series – requires wheel stop adjustment
  • X300 Series – no additional requirements

This X350 w/48"deck, added console switched mulching kit, 12volt outlet, brush guard, suicide knob. Garage kept 40 hours run time . Retired marine engineer operator, 6'5" 240lbs. Florida Treasure Coast flat weedy Bahia grass, natural watering, unfertilized 3/4 acre 35 minutes mowing time The smartest part of this purchase was my choosing a large commercial John Deere Dealer. Everglades Equipment in Fort Pierce They put this mower together, delivered it, and have been good to work with since day one. They're also a Stihl dealer, and supply every yard grooming tool imaginable. The X350 looks and runs as well today as it did May 2018. The non-ethanol filtered 91 octane fuel is pricey, and a wise choice for longevity's sake. John Deere oil & filter changes as specified, and level verification before each use for amount and clarity, which is always golden and never smells burnt, in my experience foretells a bright operational future. Maintaining the proper tire air pressures is essential for an even cut and requires frequent addition. Many here have cited seat cracking, which this X350 has not experienced, but perhaps that may be oweing to a lack of sun bathing time. There is ONE issue with this product that requires modification, the bloody cup holder ! There are no cups manufactured that remotely fit this configuration. Not even John Deere makes a thermal cup that fits. Change the design to accommodate a popular available marketed CUP.

x350 with mulch deck

4/5

I bought this lawnmower mid summer and so far no major issues. I didn't figure I would because my dad has had one for at least two years with no issues. I gave it a four star rating because you can't use a bagger with the mulching kit. The mulcher works great on leaves and grass, wet or dry. However it doesn't do anything with pine needles. Neither one of us have had any issues with the seat, power, cutting uneven, belts. I've noticed fog in the display area on certain days but not all the time. Maybe an outside temp. or humidity thing. Over all so far a great lawnmower!

Purchased X350 42inch in July after using Craftsman 42 for over 17 years, JD has better engine, more powerful, but is very poor at bagging leaves. Leaves are blown away from the deck rather than being sucked in. Old Craftsman would vacuum every leaf any time I was bagging, in addition JD bagging system expels dirt on back of seat and on my clothes. Any suggestions to remedy both situations, please advise. Would go back to old Craftsman of I could.

I bought this mower for mowing fence lines. I did not get it until the growing season is over but did get it down all the fence lines once. I was mowing heavy grass and weeds. it really throws the clipping a distance. It does take a little getting use to for the automatic transmission and you have to brake to keep it from moving in neutral on hills.

Mowing about 2.5 acres in half the time it took on the big box store Husqvarna model. We have 3/4 acre of landscaped lawn and balance is rough field. Upgraded this summer when my daughter's family bought a house with acreage and I got tired of hauling my old one back and forth. Comfort when operating is night and day from the Husky. Power steering and seat construction/position are awesome. Love how easy it is to remove the bagger system and connect the trailer. Mows up the steep hill we have in the front without even breathing hard and handles the sides of the gully leading to the pond like a champ. Wish I'd spent the money years ago.

Purchased the X350 after a lot of reviews. I could not be happier. I have just under one acre to be mowed and was unsure if the X350 was to big. It is not. I bought the mulch kit and have not raked up any grass clippings since the first use. Rides smooth and cuts clean. Performed the break in oil change and was very happy with how easy it was to change. The extra height of the deck has turned my grass into a show winner.

2/5

I bought the X350 with a 48" deck for the quality of the engine and the John Deere reputation overall. It has a mulching kit on it and I'd have to say I'm not very happy with how it cuts. It misses more grass than any other mower I've owned and it cost three times as much. With other mowers, mowing twice was a choice but with this one I have to mow twice for it to look good.

My X350 has worked very well so far after three years. The only complaint I have is the seat has cracked in three places. It is garaged, maintained and kept very clean. So why does the seat crack?? I've seen numerous postings all over the web about these seats failing this way. Terrible example of what is supposed to be a high quality product! Had to put duct tape over the cracks to keep them from tearing further. I'm embarrassed to be seen with this tractor now!

Fantastic mower. All amazing features. I love having the safety disengage that allows you to backup without having to turn the pto off. You have to push it everytime you back up, or the pto does disengage, which is a good thing since it is a safety concern. But very handy if you need to just back up a bit and get straight with your path again without disengaging the deck. Large display shows fuel level, warning cluster, RPMs, and several other notifications. Mower comes with a deck leveling tool for when you deck gets out of alignment. Washport is built into the deck for easy washing with garden hose to get all of the debris and wet grass built up under the deck clean.

Needs more drivetrain power on hills

1/5

I was SO excited for my first mow. Because of Covid it took about a month and a half to receive the X350 42". Scalped the lawn on my first pass. Dealership had installed Mulch Control system and said everything was all set... deck height was at least an inch too low. The engine seems under powered. The blades never slow down and I can mow through pretty tall grass no problem. But the X350 can't pull me up a hill very well. I have to get speed going first to have momentum. And brakes... what brakes? Coasting downhill does just as much speed reduction as being full on the brake. I expected a LOT more for how much money this mower cost.

Silly me. I thought my new JD would be just as tough if not tougher than my 18 year old JD. No. Apparently the sweetgum balls sneak under the transmission belt and destroy it. My dealer said (after my purchase and service call) "We tell everyone in the Carolinas 'bout them sweetgums." Nope. Definite design flaw. My Deere needs mudflaps or gumflaps!

Great upgrade

5/5

I had a 21 year old Saber 2046 that dieds so I was able to upgrade. It took 3 or 4 cuttings on our 1.4 acres to fully get the feel for the X350. Now I can say that it is an improvement, although since the X350 sits higher than the 2046 it is a little tough getting under tree branches. Things people will want to know is that the steering is really easy. The 2046 was difficult to steer, but the X350 is very light. Also the turning radius is great. I am able to get around small trees much better. I would prefer if the PTO did not cut out at the slightest touch of the reverse pedal. When you want to stop, it is not easy to get to the brake so you naturally hit the reverse, which then cuts out the blades. Things JD should consider to improve are: 1) Give hole or something in the grass deflector so I can pull it up when pulling into the shed. The doors are not wide enough to get through with it down. 2) Why is the gas cap hole so big? It looks heavy duty, but it is really not needed. The only thing it does is give grass and dust more space to get into the gas tank. 3) Put a light switch on the dash. It is annoying to click through it to turn off the lights each time. I get that it becomes another switch to install and pay for, but it would be better.

I purchased the mower three months ago, added the mulch kit. The machine itself is nice but does a terrible job mowing. It mowed uneven leaves a section of I cut grass right down the middle of the deck. It's been in the shop three time in three month and it still does a lousey job of cutting grass. I call the dealer today and told them to pick it up because I've had it. For courthouse dollars I expected better and because it is a Jinh Deere I expected much better. Never again, I'll go back to my Tori 21 inch push mower. It mowed much better.

This is my second John Deere Lawn Tractor

5/5

My first Lawn tractor was a 125, which served me well for ten years but as I mow a couple of rough lots it finally started to show quite a bit of wear. I gave it to a friend and bought an X350. I'm starting my fourth season with the X350 and it has just over 300 hours on it. I've followed the John Deere maintenance schedule and the Kawasaki engine adjustment schedule. The only problem I've had was that it threw a belt after three years. I bought a new one and all was fine but then the belt tensioner spring broke and I didn't check to see why the belt had started squeaking when engaged so the replacement belt wore in two. I ordered a new tensioner spring and belt and all it good thus far. I had to adjust the toe-in of the front wheels this summer and there is a bit of play in the front wheel bearings but, as I said, the mower leads a rough life. The deck idler bearings have a small amount of play after three years too but probably won't need changed for a couple more years. I wire brush and repaint the underside of the deck every fall, which prevents rust. Besides mowing, I pull a dethatcher and an aerator a couple of times a year over about two acres. I also pull a small trailer.

Great mower!

5/5

After 3 1/2 years of use I'm still overly happy with the purchase of this mower. Its been a great mower, with no issues! I do my regular maintenance more often than recommended, have had zero issues! My seat has torn on both sides, doesn't bother me, just a bummer. My only complaint comes from the mulch kit, when mowing tall grass, the output clogs, when i take off the mulch plate it doesn't. Overall a fantastic mower, I recommend to anyone who asks!

100 Hours in No Problems

4/5

I bought the 42" deck X350 in 2018 and starting my fourth season mowing. This is my first John Deere and it's been a pleasure to mow my little over 1 acre. I have some decent sized hills that I wanted to get a little heavier duty lawn tractor in the X350 than the big box stores, and I have no problems getting up the hills and weigh 250 lbs. I have had no problems other then the seat splitting but I maintain each season by the book. 1st year used the JD dealer I purchased and that was more expensive than my car maintenance, so I have a small engine repair shop look after. I was worried about the transmission going, which is sealed and oil can't be changed, etc, but it's doing a good job so far.

JD X350

5/5

Purchased this mower several years ago and gave my 17 year old LT155 mower to my mother for my brother to use on her yard. So far I have not had the issues with my X350 that other owner have. Could be that where I purchased it from did a better job of putting it together. It is a heavier mower than the LT155 but that mower is still working also. I have over half an acre to mow. Have used it 67 hours since I got it.

I bought my X350 48" side discharge 2 years ago and my X350 42 M one year ago. Each had problems within the first year. Besides the problems described below, the 48" tractor's seat is split in several places. I'd read these are problematic but really expected it to last more than a year or 2.

Great all around mower

5/5

I purchased an X350 with 48" deck, mulch kit, & brush guard 10 months ago. Debated on moving up to a model with power steering but after driving this i'm glad i didn't. Steering is very light & the Kawasaki engine takes every hill on my 1 acre lot with ease. My previous JD L120 had the 22 hp B&S that feels like 10 hp compared to this kawasaki engine. Great stability on off camber hills which is half of my yard. I saw some reviews about it not cutting well which prompted me to write this review. My yard has never looked better and my only guess is their deck adjustment must be off. The larger size also helps so you don't feel like your riding a kid toy around your yard.

Mowing TRACTOR

4/5

I have owned 7 John Deere Tractors, compact to this size. My X350 has manual lift which was a mistake for me if you plan on changing for snow blowing. It does a great job blowing snow. The changeover is the most difficult of all JD tractors I owned. Spend extra for the one with power lift or have the dealer do it.

Pros

  • great hydrostatic drive
  • works great

Cons

  • hard to do changeover
  • manual lift makes changeover difficult.

GREAT Mower

4/5

I bought the X350 this year to replace a LA series. I chose it because of the Kawasaki engine. I have used it for 10 hours and I am very impressed with the tight turning radius and pulling power. It pulls up the hill like a champ in the wide stance makes it secure on hills. So far very pleased with my purchase.

Pros

  • pulling power
  • 4 easily adjustable anti scalp wheels
  • comfortable seat

Cons

  • placement of oil filter for oil change

X350 is a greaT moweR

5/5

I purchased an 2020 x350 with 48 " deck , I was going with a 42" but liked the idea of the scalp wheels that turn and allow easy removal of 48"deck I also installed the mulch kit and brush guard my self it was easy to do. The only thing I had to get used to is using the brake on slope compared to my lt155 which would stop when you let off drive peddles , that would be the only negative thing I could say about it, From the time you turn it over and it starts you know you have a great motor the way it sounds, it cuts great, has more than enough power, easy to level deck, steers real easy and a tight turn radius, on top of that just looks great! I sold my lt155 I had for 20 years and never had a issue, just regular maintenance,Just felt it was time to update to a new John Deere and get another 20 years out of this one! For myself the grass can't grow fast enough , can't wait to cut the lawn Agin !

  • great mower

5/5

I have had my unit for 3 years now (X-350 will mulch kit) and it works great. Had walk-behind JD mower and it broke after 10 years. Decided that since I am getting older and the lawn needs more work - that it was time. It is a great addition with the added de-thatcher and now a lawn vac. I am glad that I made the investment and look forward to a future with a upgrade if needed.

Not happy with the X350 transmission and noise

1/5

I purchased a brand new X350 in April 2020. I mow my lawn twice a week and change the pattern/direction every time I mow. I have a coupe of slopes that are about 6 to 8 feet in length from top to bottom and not more than 18 degrees. I would not call them hills. The first time I came down one of them, I was about 2 feet from a tree and lifted off of the forward control pedal to stop and go in reverse. The tractor did not stop, it free wheeled forward and the corner of the hood bumped the tree. I have done this same thing the last 12 years with the 2008 John Deere LT 180 and have never had any problems. When you took your foot off of the control pedal on the LT 180, it would not move forward/backwards more than 3 or 4 inches before it stop. Now I have a "brand new" mower with less than 4 hours on it with a busted hood. This is the fourth hydrostatic drive mower I have had (two John Deere's and the first a "yellow and white machine) and have never had one free wheel like this. As a matter of fact, if it is sitting and not running you can push it without even pulling the bypass valve lever. Contacted the dealer and took it back. We compared it to another X350 and it does the same thing. Dealer said this is the way that transmission is, needed to go to the next model up for a different transmission It is also very loud for a new machine. Will not be buying another one

Great engine, terrible deck.

3/5

My last John Deere L110 lasted 17 years with regular maint. So I bought an X350 it has a nice Kawasaki engine with lot's of torque, I have had problems with the deck from day one. Granted my lawn is not even, but it should produce a better cut than it does. I have had it back to John Deere 3 times to try and level the deck, now the deck is bent by the spindle. I will look for a mower with a fabricated deck next time. I would recommend looking at other mowers.

Awesome lawn tractor

5/5

I did a lot of research on this purchase, and relied pretty heavily on Consumer Reports, which rates this the best home lawn tractor that you can buy, with the S240 close behind. It's a bit pricey compared to the competition, but after about 10 hours of use, I am glad I bought this machine. I considered the 48 inch deck with the PowerFlow bagger, but when I sat on it in person, it just seemed to be too much like a tank. The 42" suits my needs better, as I don't have a massive lawn, I have to get through closely-spaced trees, and scalping is an issue in some uneven spots. The 42" with two blades seems like a better bet for scalping than the 48" with 3 blades. I bought the Deere pull-behind lawn sweeper instead of the PowerFlow. I won't know how that works out until leaf season in the Fall. It starts and runs like a champ. I really like the two different "accelerator pedals" for forward and reverse, and love that you can cut in reverse without stopping the blades. It is fairly stable and does well on our hills. I got the mulching attachment and mulch blades and it works great. It is a simple lever that closes the side-discharge chute to mulch, and opens it to side-discharge. They offer an electrically-actuated model but that was 3x the price and seemed like an unnecessary level of complexity and a potential maintenance issue. You have to get off the seat to open or close the chute, but usually you are either side-discharging or mulching, right? Adjusting the deck height is a breeze. The fuel filler is easy to access, right on the fender over the wheel well. The gauges and controls are easy to read and informative. I also thought about a zero-turn. This one is close. If you just jack it all the way and start spinning, the uncut circle is only about 18 inches. It is very maneuverable. It is not as loud as they say. The only con so far is I wish it had more than two anti-scalp wheels, both of which are on the front.

X350 DOESN'T CLIMB HILLS

1/5

I bought a brand new 2020 X350 to replace my 8 year old D140 with 350+ hours on it. With only 6.8 hours on it I had to return it to the dealer for them to look at it because it does not want to go up the hills in my yard. I have been mowing my yard with the D140 for the past 8 years without any issues. I cannot believe that a new X350 is being out performed by a 8 year old D140. I am so glad I did not get rid of my old machine because it looks like I will be using that to mow if the dealer cannot figure out the problem.

Poorly engineered bagging system

2/5

Bought the X350 along with the bagger. While I like the mower, a must have for me was the bagging system. However, the plastic bagger chute interferes with the dischrge flap on the mowing deck and pushes the mower deck down on the right causing the grass to cut unlevel. I took the mower back to my local Deere dealer to fix and when I left, it seemed to cut better. However, after getting it home and mowing, grass was flying everywhere and I noticed they had loosened the pressure on how the bagger mounts to the deck causing a gap between the mower deck and the bagger chute. I figured the blades were simply not leveled up and that's all it needed, but the dealer obviously knows of this issue and tried to bandaid it. I guess I will have to live with an expensive mower that cuts grass uneven rather than have grass blowing all over me when I mow. Come on John Deere, get some real engineers in there instead of local good old boys and make something that works. As a design engineer myself, this product is half baked. John F - Iowa

quality of this mower much better than the entry level 100 series available at big box stores. Wanted to buy a mower that would last a very long time.

I could not be happier with this mower. It was great investment and a huge upgrade. I have used several other brands of lawn tractors and none come close to this one. The engine is super quiet and lugs through tough jobs very easily. I do wish the brake pedal was on the left side of the unit instead above the hydrostatic drive pedals.

Pros

  • awesome warranty unmatched parts and service
  • there is a difference when you buy green.

Cons

  • do wish brake pedal was on left side
  • wish that x350 had a diff lock

Grandpa would be proud!

5/5

My grandpa was a lifelong farmer in Iowa and his main tractors were John Deere. It has always been my dream to own a John Deere, and now I finally have one (even though it's not a 4020 or 4440). I have mowed twice with my new X350 with the 42A-inch mowing deck and everything has worked perfect. The turning radius is awesome, making tight turns a breeze. Part of my yard involves slopes and banks, and I have had no traction issues or wheels that slip or spin. The controls are easy to operate and once you develop some "muscle memory" certain functions become automatic (e.g. brake, forward, and reverse pedals). The one thing I am still getting used to is the safety control for reverse while the mower blades are engaged. I understand why there is a safety control to prevent the mower blades from turning while driving in reverse, and it definitely will take some time to get used to . . . but it's frustrating when the PTO switch needs to be turned off and then on again to engage the blades after driving in reverse (Sometimes I forget to push the yellow safety control down before hitting the reverse pedal and then need to re-engage the blades again). At the time of purchase, I added the two-bag bagger system and that has worked perfect as well. No more grass clippings dragged into the house by the dogs and a lot less issues with thatch build-up. I installed the mulch kit myself but have not used it yet, but have areas of the yard where it will be nice to use. I will have to install a small baffle (two bolts) whenever I mulch and then remove it again when I bag, as it will interfere with the bagger connection to the mowing deck, but that is not a big deal. From what I have read, if you want the option of bagging, side-discharge, or mulching, the mulching blades should be installed instead of the high-lift blades for bagging. We'll see if the mulching blades will blow the clippings into the bag or not when I finally try it out.

Pros

  • versatility with attachments
  • john deere quality
  • easy to operate and maintain
  • kawasaki 18.5 hp engine

Cons

  • reverse safety switch takes some getting used to

Has the best reviews of almost any mower

5/5

After cutting all my personal yards for nearly 60 years (I was also a lawn mower mechanic as I worked my way through college), I have an eye for quality. To me, this mower is well worth the extra few hundred dollars above the 100 and 200 series made by John Deere, with a better quality engine and much better stronger deck. The cutting quality from this mower is excellent. I use my X350 on a two acre lot with excellent results. I have a John Deere 4052R tractor for my 200 acre vacation home in the Rocky Mountains, which has been one of the most dependable machines I have ever owned, so I am partial to John Deere. The K46 transmission in the X350 is perfect for my 2 acre flat piece of land, and will hopefully last as long as the engine, but if you have hills, or more than 3.5 acres, I recommend you move to to the X500 series with a stronger transmission and a locking rear differential. I think John Deere would sell a lot more mowers in the X300 series if they offered a X360 mower with a stronger transmission, without the power steering and steering assisted rear wheels that comes standard with the models larger than the X350 (I'm not a fan of either of these two features which I feel are really unnecessary and are just extra mechanical items to pay for and maintain). I would gladly pay a few hundred dollars more for a better transmission without the power steering (the steering is so easy as it is) and rear wheel turning assist (this mower turns already very sharp). I just do not understand why John Deere does not offer this. Competitor mowers do offer this, and I know people who bought these mowers wanting the stronger transmissions in this price range, but they have been very disappointed with the quality control, undependability, and poor looking cut patterns in their yard by these competitor (like a problematic mower brand starting with the letter H) mowers. I'm very happy with my X350 for my flat two acre yard needs.

Pros

  • most dependable mowere in its class
  • rated number one in a consumer magazine

Cons

  • k46 transmission if you have hills

Not impressed

2/5

First off, St. Louis area is stuck with Sydenstricker monopolizing the John Deere market as far as dealers go. So alot of this review is based on the dealer/service. They talked me into spending "top dollar" on this tractor. Easy to use, runs great, love the turning radius. The good discussion ends there. The deck, even on the slightest incline will tip to one side resulting in a 48 inch strip of cut grass with one side cut shorter than the other. I have had the dealer/service "fix" it twice and it still hasn't changed. I had the mulching system put on. That is a joke. Either is was installed wrong, was the improper parts or the deck is just that terrible. Now it also "mohawks my yard leaving strips of uncut grass along with the shaving of one side. My neighbors laugh at me. I had it in to be fixed to the said dealer and they said that is just how the mower cuts. I have contacted John Deere and they told me that they issued a ticket and that I need to get a hold of the....wait for it....the Dealer. Moral of the story, nothing runs like a Deere, everything cuts better. My neighbors with their little cub cadets and troy builts have way nicer yards than mine and they spent 1/3 of the money.

Pros

  • easy to use

Cons

  • mulching system leaves strips of uncut grass
  • mulching system leaves uncut grass when cornering
  • deck tilts on any incline cutting one side shorter
  • john deere service poor
  • dealer service poor

I bought this X350 in March of 2019. I had researched it for months. It was the X350 or a zero turn. I couldn't be more happy with this mower! It is truly the Caddilac of riding mowers. The Kawasaki engine is a beast. The turn radius is almost like a zero turn. It's pricy but you get what you pay for. And the 3 yr warranty covers EVERYTHING. It's my 3rd John Deere and they just keep getting better

48 inch mulcher deck

3/5

Nothing runs like a Deere, everything mows better than a deer. The 48 inch mower deck is a rip-off. Either that or the dealer is incompetent. Either way both carry the John Deere Banner. The deck tilts on even the slightest of incline when cutting across my yard causing it to cut shorter on one side than the other making my yard look like I am cutting flag strips. It's as tight as it can go and the dealers says they have done all they can do. I like my grass longer so it it healthier, greener and uses less water trying to re-grow. The only way to compensate for the tilting is to cut the grass short and lower the side wheels on the deck, thereby scraping them on pavement and cutting the yard on turns. Turning while cutting seems to magically shut the outer blades off because when I turn around, I see 50% uncut grass across the entire width of the deck. Then, cutting in a straight line, the deck "mohawks" my yard. Thin strips of uncut grass remain. My neighbors laugh at me because their 30 year old tractors cut better. I have had it back to the dealer twice. They told me they have done all they can do and that when they cut with it in a ditch, it seemed to work fine. A ditch is not a yard. I emailed John Deere and they told be to take it to the dealer. A vicious circle. There I sit with about 4 grand in this thing and everyday I walk through my garage and see it, I can't help but get angry at the waste of money it is and how poor of a response I have gotten from John Deere in general.

Pros

  • runs good
  • easy to drive

Cons

  • mulching deck is terrible
  • john deere's service is terrible
  • john deere doesnt stand by their product

Excellent residential mower

5/5

I bought the X350 (42 inch) new in 2016. I've been very happy with it so far. I don't use it for anything other than cutting grass and occasionally pulling a cart. The 18.5 hp Kawasaki starts and runs very well. The turning radius is perfect for getting around objects and the 42" deck allows me to get through spots the where the 48" couldn't. Maintenance has been pretty straightforward and there is an underhood schedule to reference, which is helpful. The only thing I wish this unit had was a locking differential, as it would be helpful in some of the more hilly spots on our property. In my opinion, if you're serious about getting a John Deere lawn tractor, stay away from box store units. Go to the dealer and get the X300 series at minimum.

Pros

  • smooth running strong v-twin
  • nice cut
  • high quality residential lawn tractor

Cons

  • locking diffential option would be nice

Best John deere I have owned

5/5

I absolutely love this mower. I have owned a 100 series and a 240 series John Deere mower before purchasing this one. The engine runs smoothly and is quiet. It is also very powerful. I opted for the 42 inch accel deep deck with a mulch kit. It cuts the grass and disperses the clippings well. It is perfect for my yard which has flower beds and trees to navigate around. The operator station is easy to use and is laid out well. The deck height adjustment is also operator friendly and is easy to use. It is also very easy to adjust up or down if needed to dial in your perfect mowing height, or to match it to a trim mower if you use one. The seat is comfortable and is adjustable. It provides adequate air flow. It comes with a 4 year bumper to bumper full warranty. John Deere also offers a 30 day owner satisfaction guarantee and will allow you to return the mower if you do not like it. It is far superior to anything the competition offers. Two thumbs way up !

Pros

  • deck height adjustment
  • engine power
  • seat comfort
  • operator station
  • ease of use
  • mulch kit option
  • kawasaki engine

Cons

  • deck wash out port

Worst mower ever owned

1/5

The mower won't start even when brand new. Dealer couldn't fix it. It's something in the safety switch circuits. Sometimes standing and sitting or toggling the PTO switch on and off will get it to start. The few times it's run, it cuts great. However, spending hours trying to get it to run is not why I bought it. Seat safety switch and PTO switch have both been replaced. Since it rarely starts, I basically wasted $3800 making it the worst purchase of my life.

Just bought my JD X350 a month ago after owning a JD L130 for over ten years. Gave the L130 to my son in law and I upgraded to the X350. Powerful motor and the torque is unbelievable. Will add a snowblower attachment this winter. My family now owns 3 of the X300 series mowers (and one L130). John deere continues to prove itself with the quality products. The price you pay is worth the quality and the service you get with John Deere.

Great machine

5/5

I had a LT133 and the rear axle broke and could not be repaired, it was over 17 yrs old. I bought the X350 42 in and I just love it! I really liked my LT133, but this machine is a real wow! It is so much quieter and I had the mulching kit installed. It doesn't leave clumps of grass and it cuts the grass into very small pieces. I just love the way it mows my yard and I get a lot of complements on how will my yard looks. John Deere came a long way from my 17 yr old LT133! I love all the features it has, but the one thing you have to learn with this machine is when you go into reverse. You have to push that yellow button down before you even come close to going into reverse, it's very touchy. Over all, John Deere, you did a great job on this one!

Pros

  • great and easy mowing
  • easy cleaning of the deck.

Cons

  • the reserse is very touchy.

We bought our first house this year and decided we need a good quality lawnmower. We purchased from Cazenovia Equipment locally in upstate New York where we live. Only complaint is that we didn't look the unit over well enough and there was scraping along side the mower deck and along side the hood next to the hydrostatic pedals. Wish we looked it over better honestly! We would have picked another unit or asked for a discount due to the minor damage. Other then that we will be John Deere costumers for life!

5/5

After years of buying other brands, I finally bought a genuine John Deere. The quality and workmanship ate evident from the smallest detail to the overall design. The x350 makes yard work a pleasure and the results are outstanding. Fuel consumption is a bit high, but the emissions and noise are low. It's also expensive, but if you're looking for a lawn tractor that will last year after year, then this it it.

Mower for anyone

5/5

My old JD 316 gave it up after 32 years. Almost bought a zero turn mower, like everyone else seems to do. Instead I opted for the X350, largely due to the Kawasaki engine. Very glad to have a conventional mower with steering wheel and the ability to pull the 10p cart. With the 48" deck I can knock out a lot of grass in one hour. Love the new dash, too!

Pros

  • kawasaki
  • led dash
  • heavy deck

John Deere X 350 42 inch mower

4/5

While this is a fine mower I just turned over 7 running hours on it; got a stick in the deck belt and threw it off. I ran my previous brand mower (not suppose to give the brand name in this review) 17 years and never threw a deck belt off. The JD belt is much too exposed. It needs the addition of a guard. Also I dislike the JD transmission compared to my previous brand of mower. On the other mower when you take your foot off of the forward pedal the tractor stops on a dime and stays there. No brakes needed. On the JD taking your foot off of the pedal (forward or reverse) leaves it free wheel. My yard is sloped and it would be easy to run off a bank or hit a tree if I cannot stop quickly. The brake pedal is a foot in the air making it too far of a leg movement to use it to stop quickly. I have made due with getting into the habit of using the reverse pedal as a brake when needing to stop quickly. In my opinion this is a dangerous set up on this machine.

Good Little tractor

4/5

X350 with 48" deck, Kawasaki motor and K46 transmission and mulch kit. Cuts well, easy to use but a lot of safety functions (good but cumbersome). Rides well with pretty tight turns and cast iron front axle. After an hour of mowing transmission is only at 130* F- we have some pretty steep culverts lining our 1/2 acre, but no issues getting up them in forward or reverse. Safety seat and PTO shutoff when in reverse (press button to mow in reverse) is common place now, but still a little annoying. Easy access to zerks, nice flat mower deck with little accumulated clippings while mowing (as expected with mulching). 4 star rating is solely due to non-serviceable tranny and safety buttons/seat that add extra steps while mowing. All of which are commonplace nowadays. Mower starts up quickly, no mess on or under deck after mowing, easy steering, easy deck detachment. I recommend getting the bumper to protect the plastic hood (plastic hood is to protect engine from rust from dropping into it- which is not an issue in TX). Mulching blades don't side discharge well of course, so it did bog down with 3ft tall grass (again, not the designed usage for mulching blades). I'm tall enough to use my foot to open/close mulching gate while seated, which is nice. It's a good little tractor and foresee many seasons and easy servicing

Pros

  • kawasaki flat deck design easy deck detachment

Cons

  • non serviceable tranny

Excellent Tractor

5/5

I was in the market for a tractor after my lawn service became unreliable. I have 1&1/2 acres with a combination of flat areas as well as hills and slopes. The big box store products are not for me. After researching I decided on John Deere and visited my local dealer. ( Adams Power Equipment. Poughkeepsie, NY ) After discussing my needs they suggested the X350. They were running an in house discount plus the Deere discount the day I visited. This unit also had the Kawasaki engine and a 4 year warranty well surpassing the competition. Due to the great price I added the push button Mulch Kit and a brush guard. They did the prep as well as installing the options and delivered it within a week. The delivery driver explained the operation clearly. I have used it several times now and could not be happier. It cuts clean and evenly. It tackles the hills and slopes with out any issues. Traction is good and it feels like a piece of professional heavy equipment not the lighter units from the box store. The push button mulching works great and was well worth the money spent. I can cover me entire yard in an hour and will get shorter as I figure out different patterns. I plan on buying the pull behind detacher and spreader in the fall. If you want a great tractor I would highly recommend this product. Thank you to Adams Power Equipment for your great service as well as John Deere.

Awkward midlevel machine

3/5

Smaller 18.5hp motor is great wide open mowing. Made it all the way through an hour and a half of use. I did not like the sound and feel of motor at lower rpms. Engine used a lot of fuel also. Mower height dial on center of foot deck is getting kicked when I get off machine. It is a poor location. The orange dash lever that locks the brake pedal is lifted to engage. should have push to engage and release when pedal is pressed. That and the reverse button when mowing are annoying. Don't like the plastic hood. Scratches real easy. Cup holder will not hold a travel mug unless it is real small. Overall this doesn't have the attention to detail I expected from John Deere. Even the linkage from the steering shaft to the wheels is loose and makes noise from a poor fit. The hinge holding the seat is loose and rattles when not sat on. The little throttle lever is so stiff to move it hurt my wrist. U am very happy the corporation's are doing such a fine job of decreasing costs of production, but I am not wanting the sub par products anymore. I traded up to the X380 48" mower. I am hoping for a better experience with the upgrade. Unfortunately except for the different engine the other issues may carry over to the 380

Season 3 review.

5/5

Going on my 3rd season with this mower. It's a workhorse. Starts everytime. Runs for hours in end. Our place isn't exactly mower safe. It does a real good job at chewing up unexpected items. Couple things I'd like to see different tho. The mulch attachment closes up too much of the side discharge. It's a must to pull it before that 1st of year tall grass mowing. Would also like to see a man's size cupholder. One it comes with is too shallow. Really only fits a 12oz can.

I still have my first John Deere LT155 for 19 years, it never failed to start or run.

3/5

Two years ago I bought the X350, when it was delivered the driver took it off the truck and said here is you tractor and hat and left. No demo of features or anything else. I notice the seat had a wrinkle on the right side but thought it would go away over time. It only got worse and about a year later it started cracking. It was running good so I delayed calling the dealer. Earlier this year I notice it was cracking in a number of places. I assumed that the bumper to bumper warranty would cover the seat.The dealer said it was normal wear and would not replace the seat. The tractor only has 26 hours on the odometer. My first tractor never did this and did not show any major wear for at least fifteen years. I was going to buy a bumper and some other attachments, now I want to sell it!

Bagging attachment

4/5

Recently purchased X350 with bagging attachment to replace my LT160, I bought in 2004. Unfortunately it was flooded in Hurricane Florence, still ran perfectly. X350 runs perfect, love the cruise control. Issue with X350 bagger is installation of chute and the mesh bags. In order to install chute, you must loosen the bolts holding the attachment arm to mower head and then re-tighten. Old system had a rubber strap to attach. the mesh bags are basically useless as they allow dirt to fly all around you. When you finish mowing, you and the mower need a shower to remove the dirt and debris. Bad engineering on bagger attachment!!

Bought almost one year ago. Tractor is just what I thought it would be. I had a GT235 for 12 years and it looked like a new one when I sold it last year. Thought I was moving to a small yard. Wrong!! I now have a 1 acre yard. This takes about 45 minutes to cut. Runs smooth and does all it was meant to. Bought a manual mulch kit for it and i'm glad I did. It is alway windy here. I expect this will be as good as my last tractor. All of my families have bought JD tractors for our lawns and never had a bad one. Love this new one I have now. a great tractor!!!!!

Great tractor, but remember its limits

3/5

I purchased a brand new x350 in may of 2018. Fantastic tractor. Cut was perfect. I was in love for the first cutting until I pulled the tractor in the garage. My local John Deere dealer recommends a D or E series tractor for an acre. I don't agree. They recommend the x300 for up to 4 acres, and the x500 and x700 for anything larger depending on implement usage. I purchased an X350 for cutting 3.5 acres of semi flat ground. No major hills, slopes, or loads. The K46 transaxle became so hot that I could not touch it! It is non-serviceable. How long would the transaxle of lasted to that abuse? Internet searching quickly proved to me that my thoughts were right, as I had found thousands of people who had burnt up their K46 transaxle. I am not sure why John Deere, and many others, insist on using the garbage that the tuff torque K46 is. I do not recommend anyone buy a tractor with a K46 unit. I cut with it twice, called my dealer and used the John Deere promise and got an X570. It would of only been a matter of time before the transaxle failed. This tractor for one to two acres of flat ground would be perfect. Anything else, I would suggest the X500 series. The D and E tractors, I wouldn't go more than a 1/2 acre. If you have your heart set on a X300 series, I would recommend the X380 and above as they do have at least a serviceable transaxle with the K58 unit.

Clippings everywhere

4/5

I have owned many John Deere mowers over the last 30 years. The X350 is excellent in most ways. Best cutting deck i have owned. Too bad it throws grass clipping all over the machine and operator. No blow-out baffle anymore and it spits clippings atop the deck several inches deep. The bagger has tremendous suction and does a great job. Seem that JD built the deck and then cobbled a bagger bracket and flap for it. I would prefer a complete redesign chute, rather than making a previous model fit. Mulch kit proved pointless for me, and did a very poor job despite grass length.

Pros

  • excellent cut quality.

Cons

  • blows cut grass all over the machine and operator.

Second X series that I have owned.

5/5

I have been mowing grass for 50 years. I had a lawn service for 2 years and I have owned John Deere equipment(including ztraks, lawn tractors, tractors, walk-behinds, and trimmers) for 35 years, so I know John Deere mowers. Other than general maintainence, I have always had very good luck with my mowers. When I went to buy a new mower I went to the local John Deere dealer and got a good deal and I am very satisfied with the mower. I know and have used Craftsman, Cub Cadet, Husqvarnas, and Murrays, they are not in the same league with Deeres. John Deere X mowers are built for people who need mowers that last. And that's my review and I am not bias I telling my experiences.

The best lawn tractor I've ever used

4/5

My philosophy is one that I try to wait a year before writing a review so that my feedback will be more meaningful. I bought this mower to replace a craftsman that I have had for two decades and I love it so far. I live on a small farm with two John Deere tractors so jumping on this machine was a seamless transition. The ease of use is amazing and I didn't know you could back up without turning off the blades on a tractor but this one does! The engine is great and appropriate for my 4 acre yard. The mower has a good turning radius and is very comfortable to drive. There are some design flaws that you should know about before you buy this machine. Don't get me wrong...I do not regret my purchase but I admit I am surprised that the engineers didn't do better than this. 1. The biggest issue is the wheels on the deck. I was driving without the blades on pulling my straw sweeper. As the weight got heavier back there, I guess it weighed down the machine putting pressure on the back deck wheels. You see...the deck has wheels but it does not float on the ground. I am 6'1" and 180 lbs but that shouldn't matter. The extra weight caused the wheels to be forced into the lawn creating heat on the plastic wheels. The heat melted the back two wheels and they came off the deck. I replaced them at $30 dollars each (omg!) and promised myself that I would raise the deck next time I towed anything. Yesterday, I was cutting a family members yard along the driveway and the side two wheels where pushed into the yard because of the slope. Off they go again along with another $60!! 2. You can't change the oil without getting oil all over the deck and I'm not about to remove that thing just to change the oil. Most mowers these days have a hose coming out of the bottom of the crankcase where you can drain the used oil into the pan. The deck is too high to rest it on top of the deck. Anyway...more thought could have been put into that.

Pros

  • ease of use
  • engine is top notch
  • nice turning radius
  • easy to use
  • you can back up with blades on!
  • starts every time first try
  • powerful enough to tow
  • is not loud like others

Cons

  • deck wheels are flimsy
  • deck does not float
  • can't change the oil without getting oil on deck
  • the shrouds over pulleys holds grass. i took off
  • lights aren't led
  • hood is flimsy
  • water bottle will fall out of the holder
  • grease points not easy to get to

A very nice running machine

5/5

Decided to trade in my 1993 LX 176 on the X350. I had to get one ordered as the dealers in my area did not have a 42" deck in stock. The machine is very smooth running and steering is very easy. I have a very thick bed of grass and as a result the mower was cutting the grass too short.i checked the height of the deck and found that it was set too low and the tires had twice the pressure that was recommended. I followed the instructions in the manual set the tires to recommended pressure and then adjusted the deck height to be higher than what was recommended. I now have the mower working great on my yard. The oil change was easy with a cup for the filter. The seat is very sensitive to any movement and will shut the engine off if I get light on the seat. Something I need to check out further. All in all a very nice machine which I enjoy.

Quiet, Easy to Operate, But Cheap Plastic Body

4/5

Really love how easy this machine is to drive, and how quiet it is. Only issue I have is that the hood cover is made of fragile plastic; cost of ordering replacements for two cracked hood panels is $300. If you drive a little rough may wish to add a front bumper with brush guard (if available from your dealer); I developed a bad habit with my previous John Deere of closing gates by "gently" driving into them (easy way to crack this X350's hood). Mowing under low hanging shrubs finished off cracked hood panels.

  • ease of operation
  • quiet

Terribly disappointed

2/5

First thing to say is my overall rating is based on the cut quality, the build and handling is first rate. I purchased this mower after reading the Consumer Report reviews and using my neighbors and listening to them talk about their JD lawn tractors. I have an acre lot plus I cut my neighbors grass which is about a half acre. I wanted something to handle both, that would last with no problems. My previous mower had lasted about 17 years but the last 3 have been a struggle. So after some research I spent the extra on the JD 350 and after 5 cuts I must say I am frustrated beyond belief. Half acre of my yard has a slight slope to it and this mower leaves lines in my yard. I called the local dealer after the first three cuts and they picked it up and readjusted everything and the last 2 cuts since then have been no better maybe even worse. After spending the money for a Deere I'm seriously second guessing my decision and I am extremely frustrated and disappointed. One of my neighbors has a mower that I had considered and it cost less and the overall cut looks better.

Switched from a Cub

5/5

I was in the market to replace a 20 year old Cub 2155. Fully expected to go with them again but equivalent quality (built to last 15-20 years+) was a huge jump up in price from the big box store models and was way more than I needed. I was pleased to find the X350 hit the "sweet spot" of exactly what I was looking for in terms of long lasting quality for the 1/2 acre yard I mow. Really impressed with how easily it handles with the tight turning radius. Cuts beautifully; discharge really spreads out the clippings so I no longer have to consider raking up clumps of grass. Very pleased so far and would highly recommend.

Pros

  • easy handling
  • tight turning radius

99% Happy.....

4/5

Just bought it new and overall I knew I'd be happy. The only thing that concerned me was the mesh bags in the back. I really didn't want mesh but that's what it comes with. I've had a bagger for years but with hard bags on the back. This is the only thing I dislike about it is that feature. If they ever come out with the hard plastic bags, I will take these off. I have pretty much grass and not much dirt to run over, but this thing shot dust or whatever out and I was covered with it. The mower was covered with dust just from mowing. When the shoot tosses it in the bags, since they are mesh, any dust or dirt will billow out of the thing. Trying to dump the clippings into lawn bags wasn't that great either. When you dump the clippings, there is a strap on the bottom that you hold onto to lift it. When you dump it, once again I'm covered in dust and dirt because it comes out of the mesh. I'd have given it 5 stars, but because the mesh bags are a PITA, I'm giving it a 4 and hoping they offer up the plastic bags again.

Pros

  • lots of power feels sturdy does the job

Cons

  • those mesh bags are awful and messy

Very Poor Cut

2/5

I purchased an X350 w/ a 48" mulching deck the Spring of 2016. I would first state that this mower runs fine and has a sound engine which i would give 4 stars. What I am very upset about is the cut quality which i would give ONE STAR. No matter how fast I drive or what kind of grass I cut, it leaves lines and patches of grass everywhere. The worst areas are around turns, but it doesn't lift the grass up even on the straights in the center of the deck and on the tire tracks. I have contacted my John Deere dealer multiple times and all they tried to do was put different blades on the mower which did not solve anything. Eventually, they said they would report it to John Deere and I have never heard anything back since. If i would have known this mower cut this bad for the price I paid, I would have definitely went with something else.

the peformance and quality of the new 42 inch deck is unbelivable. it functions like a full commercial deck and you wont be disappointed. this is my 8th John Deere since I started my company in 1999 and it is one of my favorites. already preparing to buy the x380. great mower

Love this tractor

5/5

This tractor is a great value for the money. Traded in a Cub Cadet that was 12 years old. The quality of the JD is far SUPERIOR than anything I have looked at. The dealership Bud Herbert Motors was excellent to work with and I would highly recommend them. When tractor was delivered they went over everything on tractor and made sure I had no questions and was comfortable with it.

Pros

  • steering
  • ease of use

Cons

  • none

I expected greater improvements from over the past 20yrs.

3/5

For about the past 5yrs. I have been looking at possible replacements for my '96 LX176 w/44" piranha deck. I did a fair amount of research and decided on the 350 w/48 deck and mulching kit. I had to return it after the first use because the right blade struck the fixed portion of the mulching kit upon the first engagement and it mowed poorly. Got it back with new blades on it and it seems better, but the lack of directional striping is a downer. I believe that a striping kit is available, but maybe it needs to be standard in order for visual satisfaction. The option to switch to side discharge is one that I don't plan on using so I wish there was a nice cover to go in place of the enormous chute. I agree with a previous post about the deck being difficult to remove as well. Traction doesn't seem to be an issue but the small tires make the tractor look cheap. At this point I am not sure that I will keep it or exercise the John Deere Promise and return it.

Pros

  • good value
  • looks sharp
  • deck is easy to clean
  • 4 wheels on the deck

Cons

  • deck is a bear to remove
  • poor cutting appearance
  • small tires make it look cheap

Excellent tractor/deck - changing blades is hard

4/5

I used an LX tractor for 20 years and loved it, but finally sold it and purchased this X tractor about 2 years ago. I maintain 2 acres of lawn, steep hills, and multiple trees. Also, I'm a large heavy guy.. .and I have a tendency to use the tractor/mower to trim buckthorn that grows in the woods. In short, this tractor sees heavy use (pun intended). The engine has very sufficient power for hills and mowing buckthorn and tall grass. It runs fine on regular unleaded gas - using about 1 gallon/acre. All operation is smooth from the parking brake, transmission, steering, etc. Changing oil, filter, plugs, and air cleaner is not hard to do. I mail order OEM products for this purpose. I purchased two sets of blades and that worked fine too. However, changing blades on this beast is much more difficult than on my prior LX tractor with it's 48" deck. The mounting on this X tractor is more difficult to release and wrestling the heavy desk out from underneath the tractor is not for the faint of heart. If I ever buy another tractor (this one will probably last for a real long time) I will certainly ask the salesman to DEMONSTRATE removing and reattaching the mowing deck!! Once the deck is out, it has to be flipped to do a through cleanout and blade exchange....this is not easy as the quality built deck is heavy. Difficulty in changing the three mowing blades is the ONLY reason this review suggests 4 stars rather than 5. The design could have been better. All other service of the tractor (lube, blade leveling, etc) goes smoothly and the user manual is excellent. I'm very delighted with this purchase, it has served me well for several years and I'm expecting a nice long lifetime out of this tractor also!

Pros

  • excellent engine power
  • wonderful traction on steep slopes
  • solid quality build that won't whimp out on me

Cons

  • removing deck to change blades is difficult

Nice ...but not as good as I expected

3/5

I bought the x350 because I wanted the best, after a long research period I thought I found it. Not so.... The good, ::: love the engine, and ease of driving. Looks great, not too big or too small Dash display is very informative , perfect if it had a clock. The bad:::: Digital display gets fogged over within 15 minutes and stays that way for over an hour. Hood scratches easy. As well as the headlights. Front wheels, they wobble, not the rim but he tires on the rims, you can feel it when you drive it on hard surface ( driveway) Forward peddle is a little small, and the brake is way too high , in a panic situation you would never be able to lift you leg high or fast enough to stop it. You can't just lift you foot, you must lift your entire leg to reach it. I want to love this mower, but I can't get over the foggy dash display and wobbling tires. I will try to attach a pic of dash display on a update to this review Thinking of returning it and getting a Cub Cadett..

Awesome tractor, perfect for women

5/5

I love my new X350 48" mower. Was a present from my husband as I was push mowing over an acaer of land each week and most of it was up hill. Was taking me an hour and a half to mow once a week and now I can mow in less than an hour. I love the mulching blades, I don't have to rack the yard of big clumps of grass that the push mower was leaving behind. I would recommend this mower for anyone. It turns very nicely and I can get very close to edges of the trees and house making any weed eating much less than when I was using the push mower or our large Kabota tractor to mow. The sales man was also very patient and informative when he was showing me all the features and how to properly take care of the tractor. Love it.

Pros

  • very easy to use
  • very fast at cutting
  • leaves no mess to clean up in your yard when done
  • very nice ride does not hurt my back to use it

Cons

  • so far none

5/5

I recently traded in my 2007 JD X300 and I was originally going to trade for a X330 and found out I would be downgrading my motor so I decided to go with the X350 and so far I am very pleased with this lawn tractor. The tractor had 0.2 hours when I picked it up and I've been using it around the yard and it takes on hills with no problems. I would recommend this tractor to anyone looking for a good quality lawn tractor

Flawless

5/5

Bought my machine a few months ago and have not been happier since. It's not nearly as loud as the other neighbors when I mow. The deep deck and mulch kit I added really get the grass cut up nice. I just added the lawn strip kit to the mower and it really does look like a professional is mowing our yard. The machine starts up great every time and is very smooth running. It has a great turn radius, very easy to get on and off of it. Looking forward to many great years and will never look at anything else when it comes to my mower. Thank you.

Quality, Powerful and Stripes

5/5

My first John Deere, I replaced a Hustler Raptor 42" ZTR that my wife could not seem to warm up to. Brought this home and the wife jumped on and once around the 3/4 acre yard, she was sold! The Raptor had a similar Kawasaki motor so I was at home with this model. The X350 is very close to the Raptor in terms of mowing time but surprisingly much better striping with the X350's Accel Deep Deck compared with the Hustler. The yard now looks like a PGA golf course. A quality tractor through and through, this unit has a nice tight turning radius (better than I expected), easy steering for a tractor this size and a feeling of quality DNA from the comfortable seat, control layout, digital dash panel displaying useful data and an EZ deck leveling system (tools provided) and automatic choke, John Deere has a winner here with the Z350 product. Maybe a few bucks more than the competition but I see this tractor outlasting me with the four year warranty included. In summary, all I can say is if your on the fence or just in the market for a top quality estate tractor with all the safety features, don't hesitate, get the X350 - you'll be glad.

Pros

  • nice stripes
  • good power
  • quality
  • reliable motor
  • comfortable seat
  • low noise
  • accessories
  • safety features
  • sturdy frame

5/5

I had to replace my LT 155 and I couldn't be more pleased! I have 1.25 acres of uneven ground and the X350 handles it with ease. It runs much quieter and it has a great turn radius. I am a widow and need something dependable so I never even considered any other brand. Highly recommend this mower!

Pros

  • easy to drive
  • quiet
  • cuts evenly

Cons

  • none

All I can say is WOW!!!!

5/5

OK First I am not a person that has owned a lot of tractors this is my first. I have done the mowing by a push mower my whole life, and for the last five years almost an acre of very hilly and bad ground. So for the last few years letting some go to zero scape to cut down on mowing time and it took over three hours over three days a big pain. I have complained to my husband for a couple years about wanting a lawn tractor and I got one now, I do the mowing he has allergies so bad he cant hardly breath if he mows. So I had grass, weed, alfalfa and god knows what else in my yard some over three feet high. This beast mowed it down like I was cutting a normal lawn in an hour and a half and I believe it will be less than an hour mowing time now and handled the hills like they where no big deal. It was my first time using one and all I can say is WOW ! I will review again after the end of the season to give a better rounded review. I did my research and John Deere came out on top, you got to dig a bit because you can find all kinds of reviews on Craftsman and many other brands, I bought mine at a John Deere dealer here in Riverton WY very professional and know there business. the Sears place here could not answer question at all other than to say they mow grass, which is why I started researching. In my opinion yes it is a bit more but quality is top notch and does it Mow....

Pros

  • hills no problem
  • easy clean up
  • easy to drive and handel
  • mows fast

Cons

  • none

Much easier steering than previous models, quieter and smooth hydro

5/5

I have owned 3 JD's in 46 years and this is the 3rd and the best the best. I purchased one for myself about 6 weeks ago and I am seriously considering purchasing a 2nd one for my son when he moves into his new house. I like the digital dash for easy maintenance reminders, the foot raise/lower pedal of the mower deck and the steering is so much easier than the earlier models. I was concerned I might need power steering, but the 350 steers so easily, there is no need for me, as a senior, to have the power steering. This tractor won't attach to many implements, but it will do everything I need to do.

Pros

  • quieter than previous models
  • no dent hood
  • sseat comfort
  • dash

Cons

  • not yet

Replaced a 1985 John Deere 111

5/5

This tractor is the ticket. I replaced a 1985 model 111 after 30 years. The x350 cuts smooth and level every time with plenty of power to mulch up leaves. I only have 2 small hills on my property and it has plenty of power to climb the hills. My old 111 would "bog" down when I hit a patch of higher grass. The x350 blasts right through it without even a stutter. I have owned this tractor for over a month now, and I have went over every inch of the unit. To this date I can't find a single area where John Deere took the cheep way out. Everything is made of the highest quality. I am looking forward to the x350 for many years to come.

Pros

  • quality
  • power

Cons

  • none

Wife & I both Happy!

5/5

My wife & I traded in our old L110 for this X350 and we are both amazed on the time it saves on mowing. Powerful Kawasaki Engine. Excellent Turn Radious. Smoother mowing the ditches. Doesn't seem to use as much gas. We both love the ride. Currently have our other D110 in the shop for regular maintenance. Yes, we have a lot of acrage to keep up. We both enjoy mowing, and we both prefer the reliable John Deere brand. Tip: If you go into a John Deere dealer, they take in trades. Also note: The X Series can only be purchased at a John Deere dealer. My wife & I highly recommend this X350.

Pros

  • turn radious
  • power
  • easier to clean

Time for another John Deere

5/5

It was time for our 1998 Sabre 22HP 54" deck to say goodbye. It provided good trouble free service. As we looked around it became clear in my mind that it was Cub Cadet or John Deere. We opted for the X350 with the 48" deck and after mowing all four acres today I must say I am happy with our purchase. It took some time to get use to hitting the yellow back up button so as to not shut down the deck, but once I got the hang of it I was ok. I really love the digital display and the comfort of the machine. I did miss the traction I got with the bigger more aggressive tires of the Sabre, but this machine will not see any snow, I have the big quad for that. All in all the John Deere X350 handled my four acres that has steep inclines, some sand, heavy trees, and some thick grass like a champ. I am hopeful that we will get almost twenty years out of this Deere as well.

Pros

  • smooth operation great power and comfort
  • smooth steering

Cons

  • no led headlights
  • needs bigger tires

Great mower

5/5

I had a Cub Cadet LT1050 for about 10 yrs. I fought it every season and each season I swore I was going to buy a new one. I looked around and decided I was going to buy a deere. I concidered the D160 until I talk to a deere dealer and he convinced me to buy the X350. Boy am I glad he did. The first time I used it I was very impressed with the power. My grass had gotten away from as my cub had died and it took me a couple of weeks to purchase my new one. It cut right through the grass. It steers like a dream. You would swear it has power steering. The controls are easy to use. The foot peddles took a little getting used to since my cubhad a single peddle for forward and reverse. Over all it is a great tractor.

Pros

  • great steering great turning radius

Cons

  • the reverse mow switch is a pain
  • seems to use more gas than my 22 hp cub

JD X350

5/5

Just Purchased and highly impressed. Replaced a 100 series with the 350 and difference is substantial. Took 1 and 1/2 hrs. less time to mow, cut is much better and overall ride much improved over the 100 series. I have 2 acres of uneven ground to mow and handles very well. For a few extra bucks the 300 series is well worth the investment.

Pros

  • ease of use handling
  • sturdy
  • even cut

Smooth, Quiet, Powerful

5/5

I needed a replacement for my trusty 20+ year old John Deere STX38, and the x350 seemed to be about the modern equivalent. I looked at a number of other options, including a Cub Cadet XT2 with similar deck/engine/transaxle, which could be had for about $600 less. In the end, I stayed with the x350 primarily because of my past experience with durable JD mowers. I'm really glad I sprung for the extra cost, because the x350 is a much nicer machine. It runs so smoothly and quietly and has plenty of power to mow uphill. I was initially very taken with the Cub Cadet fabricated deck, but I think that the x350's Accel deck is every bit as good, if not better. I'm getting a very smooth cut, even when mowing through tall grass, and the clippings spread far and wide from the discharge chute. I'm a big guy (6'1", 300lb) but I feel very comfortable on the nice 2-piece seat, and the foot controls are super-easy to use. I'm looking forward to many years of use out of this beefy mower!

Pros

  • comfortable seating
  • smooth quiet engine
  • heavy-duty frame
  • high quality cut from deck

My yard has never seen a mower this good

5/5

I purchased the X350 to replace a ten year old Craftsman (Husqvarna) mower with similar specifications (42" deck, 18.5hp engine, etc.). However, the Craftsman doesn't compare to how good the X350 performs when mowing my lawn! The new Accel Deep deck performs so well, I have found that the thatch and other debris previous mowers left behind are being sucked up and deposited into the material collection system I bought alongside the X350. Before I got the new mower, I was thinking I was going to have to dethatch my lawn - but now, there's no reason! As a previous reviewer mentioned, the Kawasaki engine is quieter than the Briggs engines I've used, although I wish it could be even quieter. I originally intended to buy the S240, but for the $500 price difference I found the additional features were well worth the money!

X350 42"

5/5

My wife and I discussed for months on which riding mower would best fit our needs for the next 10 years. This is our first riding mower, I have been using a high end push mower for 20 + years now. Our new yard is just shy of 3/4 of an acre. We debated all winter on what to get. Originally we decided on the Husqvarna Fast Tractor YTH24V48 48 inch 24 HP Lawn Tractor. Then they changed the transmission to the one that many negative reviews can be found in their Craftsman counterpart. We then decided that the John Deere S240 would fit the bill at that point. However, knowing our expectation was for this mower to be a long term purchase, we decided to stop by the dealership and see them in person. And boy, are we glad we did. It would have been a total mistake for us to purchase the S240. Here is why (Keep in mind I am 6'2" and about 220#'s)... We felt it was worth $400 more to go from the S240 to the X350 for these reasons... The mowing deck is superior in every way. The pedals placement for forward/aft are clearly well thought out and positioned in what feels "Natural". No forced weird angles, do not have to "Look" for the pedals. We wanted the Kawasaki engine for the history/proven track record and to be frank, it was not as noisy as the Briggs was. The Briggs sounded more like a souped up push mower engine with a less than appropriate muffler. Now that said, I still would like the Kawasaki to be a little quieter. The actual "Body" of the X350 seemed to be more in touch with what all the riding mowers should be built like. It allowed for easier access on and off the rider, and better placement of all the items needed to be a rider. I can place the seat all the way back, reach the steering wheel comfortably and never get close to hitting my legs with my hands while in use. The X300 series "Feels" like they are built to work. Our only advice to those looking at making a purchase, go ride them and see them in person.
