I had it for 5 years. It needs minimal maintance during the time, I only change a tyre and battery. It still does its job and start every time. I am happy with it. I only give it 4 star as it does not come with cather Show details

Do not buy this product, or any product from Rover. The warranty department is no help do not offer solutions to any problems. You buy a lawnmower… Read more

on agreement and the company then changes the agreement and makes it very inconvenient for you to take the mower in for any work to be done on it under warranty. They are not willing to help you in any situation. They are very un Australian. They do not care about you once they have your money. They rip you off and then they disappear. Feel free to contact me if you have any more questions. Would not recommend Rover to anybody. DO NOT BUY ANY ROVER PRODUCTS, BOYCOTT ROVER

Great Mower – Bought this after a normal John Deere ride on. Really easy as it turns on a pin and great to use. You do have to be careful turning sharply as it can… Read more

dig up the lawn. Only problem is it seems to go through belts, as they get loose and then come off. I would buy it again.

Fantastic mower for sloping blocks – Moved to an acre block on Queensland Sunshine Coast around three years ago (2019). Block slopes around 20deg top to bottom, with an awkward pinch… Read more

point at one corner.

Mostly grass lawn at top of block and lumpy grassed area below, in between various large trees.

Brought a conventional ride on tractor mower with me but the only way I could safely cut the grass was straight down from the top, reverse back, and do it again. Any attempt to turn or traverse felt like the mower was about to roll. Dangerous!

Local dealer recommended the cub cadet version of this (fabricated deck vs inferior pressed steel deck on the Rover) but I bought a new Rover RZT-S46 2 1/2 years ago anyway, and haven't looked back. The RZT-S is rated to safely run at 20deg.

Fantastic mower that is comfortable to use and easy to run on the slope, although I discarded the mulching kit for the standard shute (mulching blades still on) to reduce grass build up under deck.

Kohler engine is strong and pulls well, even with a heavy trailer load attached.

First service at dealer, subsequent done by me. Two sets of blades so far, but the 'Gator' mulching blades I have now are excellent.

Had trouble with front tire punctures due to Bougainvillea spikes, so ordered in some solid rubber replacements from the US. A lot stiffer ride but no more tube repairs.

Takes about 1/2 tank of unleaded to do the full block.

Planning to remove deck again soon and treat with rust preventative then enamel just as a precaution.
