I service one of these, or one at least in the same series. The user has been cutting a country lawn the last 3-4 years. Only repairs were minor and then regular service. Chassis parts only come from a Husqvarna supplier (or Sears) and not from a regular Electrolux supplier. My customer likes it very well and it seems to be a quality machine. They are a little different to work on. Kind of like working on a euro car vs a Chevy- so no big deal.
Purchased this and seems to be a really well built and thought out machine. Haven't mowed grass yet but used it to thatch and aerate. Pulled the attachments easily and I really like the versatility of the near zero turn, front deck with the utility of a tractor for pulling attachments. Can't believe it doesn't come standard with a hobb's meter but was easy enough to fit one. We'll see how well it cuts in about 6 weeks or so. Only real downside.....SPENDY!
