Who has one and what do you like and hate about it? I'm about to pick up a MX4250 this week unless I change my mind.

Just started using it.......Got it used and the thrust from the Left is not the same as the thrust from the right....Needs adjustment. I guess...

Much better as in faster and more comfortable than my other rider a Poulan Pro....So far It's good!

I bought one new 4 years ago and have had no problems.

We've had one for about 3 years, so far so good.

For a few hundred bucks more you could get a simplicity courier that has suspension and cuts at the same speed. That's what I did last year.

I have an Exmark Quest and they are essentially the same mower. I LOVE my Exmark. I got the Kawasaki FR651 engine. 21.5 hp and it rips through thick bermuda like a hot knife through butter.

3+ years on mine and doing great. Almost 150 hours on it.

Kawasaki engine on mine. It has an actual oil pump to lubricate the engine.

Front tire bearings are kinda hard to lubricate, but it's not too bad.

They are fine mowers.

I went with a Hustler Raptor SD because of the welded deck and I got the Kawasaki motor on it.

This will be the 3rd season on mine.  So far, it's been good.  I agree with whoever said the trust between right and left isn't quite equal, but not noticeable enough to actually get it adjusted.  I also agree with whoever said the front wheel bearings are difficult to keep adequately lubricated.  One of mine developes a squeak rather quickly if I don't lube it regularly.  Beyond that, I haven't found too much to complain about.  

ETA... I bought the model with the welded deck and Kawasaki engine.

I have had a Timecutter z4200 since about 2010-2011.  It is smoking fast and I can mow my monster of a yard in a little over 2 hours compared to well over 3 with my old riding mower.  I don't like the grass discharge chute as it has now cracked and broken apart for the 2nd time but everything else seems to be holding up very well.  It has lasted longer than I ever expected it would on my rocky, bumpy yard.

Misread the title as having something to do with Toecutter.  I am disappoint.

FWIW, I'm buying the MX4250 that has the welded deck and the 24 horse Toro V twin engine that's suppose to be the shit. I had Kawasaki in mind but the equipment guy says this engine is rock solid. Truth, I would probably only baulk on a Briggs. That's a no go for me. Kohler is a close no go.

Test drove one a few weeks ago when I was in the market. It seemed alright but I bought a gravely mower instead. Seemed better built and not as cheap feeling. Was a little more $ though

Have a 48" ZX, the X used to mean higher quality, as in residential vs. acreage.

Good machine.  Used to have a 52" Grasshopper, but it was a bit too heavy duty and expensive to maintain.
