On the surface, sounds like a real good deal. I don't know about that model, but that's a large premium engine for only a 42-in. deck. You shouldn't have any trouble cutting through tall heavy grass with it.

My wife and I did a little research on that mower last year for my mother in law. The Toro has some high ratings for a light duty home owner mower. I've seen a few of them mowing while traveling about at work. The Toro seems to do a good job. My mother in law's neighbor is a farm home and garden equipment salesman. He had one at his house for a while mowing his lawn. It always looked good. Heck, that's a $1,000 off sales price. What Ya got to lose? Get an extended warranty with the money saved.

Hi,
Just met HD supervisor.
Z4235 was returned last month, didnt start.
Fixed by an authorized Toro dealer.
$1799 ($1000 less than the brand new)
Very little use, the blades are still clean.
Returnable in 30 days. Warranty by Home Depot is only 90 days.The brand new warranty is 3 years, by Toro.
Should I take it or leave it? Thx for your kind opinion.

Take it. How can you go wrong if you can return it before 30 days of trial use on your lawn?

Hi everybody and larso1 and mssurveyor,
I paid for this Zero Turn, $1799 CAD
Will pickup tomorrow, 7am, no traffic, will just drive it on shoulder, my home is 500 meter from this Home Depot. Hopefully the Cop will not stop me.
So now, I have two tractors, Toro 17-44 HXL, that I just replaced its head gasket following this forum advice, running perfectly, and this Z4235.
Will post picture after I get it
Regards
herman

Sounds good. Always nice to have a backup mower for whatever reason. Nothing like being walking distance from a Home Depot, LOL.
