Just now realizing that it's the deck that truly stands out from the rest. The engine and power behind it depends on what you are cutting and the blade style you prefer. I've been truly excited since Grasshopper came out with a stand-on mower but I need something that will fit through an average fence gate. Currently working with a 325D and it has been an absolute unit for five solid years! I've cut up to 6' tall brush and it just keeps on keepin-on.

I currently run a Z3. Local Grasshopper shop gave me a stander to demo for 2 days. I really liked it. The Ferris is still king of the hills, but the Grasshopper was much more light and nimble. Loved the short frame. Cut quality was excellent wven in wet grass. Striped very well but the Ferris is a touch better at striping on nice fescue. Overall i liked it and pricing is very good on them so we are now discussing a deal for one.

Hey Richie, I currently run a Wright stander and have no problems with it other than the closest dealer is 2hr away (purchased at Master Mowers) so been looking at other options and really liking the Grasshopper. The only problem is that they are hard to come by. The dealer near me only has one, so he is not letting it go out as a demo. I know Grasshopper has a good cut quality. My big question is, how does it handle hills.

I’ve been running Grasshopper for 17 years. They make a great product but their Grassflap is a complete joke! I bought it when it first came out, it’s just terrible engineering and design. I made adjustments, repairs from bending it, removed the plastic flap, and still hated it. I threw it in the trash! I should be getting the stand on soon and plan on finding another grass flap option.
