The 6000/Lazer X chassis is goated when it comes to hillside performance on sitdown mowers. That said, I say any hill that can be mowed with a conventional (non dually) zeroturn rider or stand on, I think I could mow it with a 60" Grandstand. I have yet to find a stander or rider that will take hills like a Grandstand will. Ventracs are awesome, but they definitely come with a price.

I mower weekly lawns at 25 degrees or more, and my employees can do it with one hand, and keep straight stripes. All wheel steering is like having 4WD. We now own four of these mowers and my Exmark and Scag are my backup mowers. Thx

I use a JD X739 lawn tractor. It has full time hydraulic all wheel drive and all wheel steer. The engine is rated for full time 20 deg use and up to 25 deg max short term. The turn radius with a 60 inch deck is about 6 - 8 inches. JD does not recommend operating above 18 deg's with the tractor in its base configuration, but that is a very comfortable stable 18 deg's. In my day to day use I remain in the seat up to about 22 deg's cross slope. Above that I hike out onto the edge of the seat to move the center of gravity over the high wheel and maintain an upright posture. The machine has a low center of gravity, a wide base, and tracks true cross slope. A interesting plus to the all wheel steer is that a set of wheels are always pointing up / down hill when turning on a slope which greatly adds to traction and stability. I can turn in ditches and on slops with ease with no wheel slip.

I was looking for a review like this a few years ago when I was buying a new mower for my hilly lawn! I’m happy with my sit down zero turn but I was wanting to fry a stander. I’m kinda glad I didn’t after watching this. Our yard is as steep as what you were on in places and I do some crab walking when it’s not completely dry but I feel safe. It’s hell on the grass though. I don’t have a lot of grass on the steep stuff. You guys do a good job with your reviews!

I started out with a walk-behind and an aftermarket velke. The velke had those skinny wheels and was an awful ride. I ended up cutting the front wheel spindles off of an old riding mower and welded them onto the velke. The wide, air-cushioned tires made a world of difference and put the velke wheels in the same track as the mower wheels, so the stripes were cleaner. Went from that to a Ventrac, the ultimate king of side slopes

I'd be interested in seeing a future video comparing the different types of mowers of similar widths - perhaps a video of reasonable widths for homeowner practicality, and another video for commercial contractors. Which type of mower (zero turn vs. stand-on) for residential sloped yards is always being asked on the various Facebook groups.

A few people have mentioned that one here. Guess we gotta put that one to the test soon.

Why does toro/exmark still use the kawasaki fs model on there commercial mowers? When they were 6k$ machines ok. But there 10k$ now there's plenty of equity in there to put on a donaldson filter its 2024 come on now.

This video is so untrue! Of course a 72 will hold a hill do a comparison of a 72 inch grandstand a 60 inch walk behind then the video might be comparable the video as it is now is very untrue unprofessional on the fact it’s being put out I’ve been cutting grass for 30+ years and I will take any machine on any hilland get the job done how you use them and your deck size

Thank you for your input. We are individuals who work full time jobs and try to create educational and fun stuff for our viewers on the side. We try to work with the equipment we have access to. The testing is intended to give you a perspective of how different mowers hold the hill. We assume that our viewers (who are mostly professional landscapers) will use their judgement and experience while coming to their own conclusions.

:013....uh never turn your free spinning wheels down hill, you can't control them and that's enough weight to drag you straight down to the bottom in a few short seconds....watched other guys do it enough and i still cringe when i think about the guy who went thru a very tall heavy duty wooden sound barrier fence.......and with a person on there...your insurance company is going to quintuple your rates cuz that lawsuit of who ever loses their legs and an arm.....$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

A walker mower would put these to shame

This is one of the worst reviews of what I was looking for. Walk behind mowers are probably one of the best on hills and the driver was awful. I don't think he could use that control setup. Zero turns are awful on slopes but a 72" is so wide, they do well. Use a 44" zero turn and try this again. I have had 10 commercial mowers. 36" exmark viking is a mountain goat. Exmark zero turns are decent.

This test has to be a JOKE. Obviously, these guys are trying to promote a product and make all others look worthless. I have an Exmark 36" walk-behind that will walk that hill if it was WET.

All the mowers in the video are the same brand. The video wasn't about what brand does better on slopes, but rather what TYPE of mower does best on them. Thank you for watching though 🙂

You can obviously tell people who have never ran a true walkbehind not a push mower

On a 25 degree slope, no. That was our first time. But we still out it on video for you. Hope you liked the video 🙂
