    I've bought 4 Hustler and there was no problem with low discharging. The Hustlers Brand is great. It all depends on the blades you purchase that defines how much grass clippings comes out. I cut yards worse than the one he mowed, my Hustler discharge the clippings 5 to 6 feet.

    Blade type, angle of sharpening, and a couple other factors that could change the way a mower cuts quickly. You are correct they are very close in specifications and other brands with the same qualifications could do just as well.

    My son and I use a 60" Hustler Hyper-Drive and a 72" 2013 Exmark Lazer Z on a 6-acre property every week. With the chute flap up, The Hustler disperses well. With it down it tends to row-clump. I would much rather drive the Hustler over the Exmark though. It's crazy smooth and comfortable. The Exmark hydros are nowhere close to the Hustler hydros. Even with spot on maintenance with both mowers, the Hustler wins. Great review of these machines. Thanks for taking the time to get this together.

    • @mainstreetmower
      @mainstreetmower  ปีที่แล้ว

      Good to know Jonathan. We did have the flaps down on both of these while mowing. Maybe that's why the cut on hustler felt a little less good than the toro.

    Been watching these lawn cutting videos for about a year now. At first was really impressed by a Hustler. I realize there is different texture of grass but thought the Hustler was pretty good.
    Then this lawn care person, Fill of Fill's Lawn Care had a Toro and that was a game changer for me. Even has a catcher bucket you can put on top.
    I started mowing grass for neighbors when I was 12. First a riding mower at one yard then my dad's gas powered reel mower.
    Years later at an airplane club in northern California I cut their 7 acres on a John Deere riding mower. The grass was just like what you cut at end of the video. Was fun but these two units are great. I really like the Toro.

    I purchased a 4000 beginning of this year and so far we enjoy the machine...cut quality, reliability, low maintenance. I will say this that the Kawi 31 HP is pretty heavy on gas and I'm not a fan of the hydro maintenance-you have to take a tiny vent screw out to bleed the air out when filling pumps. But so far our 4000 has been a very impressive machine for the money.

    This was a great and as fair as you can get it comparison. I think the Toro would win overall by my books because of the phenomenal cut quality but think it'd be interesting to see the 2023 Hustler vs the Toro if you can get it. Both seem like great machines though!

    • @mainstreetmower
      @mainstreetmower  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, totally agreed. Both machines are great but the toro does have a little edge over the hustler with it's cut quality. We're intrigued to find out how it does against the 23 model as well. We'll see if we can get our hands on one.

    I haven't tried the Toro but I do own a Hustler. I have had it for 6 seasons. I mow 5 acres a week with it and it has not once let me down, heck it even still has all the belts that came on the mower. All I've had to do is change the blades, oil & filter, and a battery. I did have to change the voltage regulator at the beginning of this season, but overall the Hustler is built like a Tank!!

    I have an X-One and I think it's a really great mower for our 2 acre yard. One way to stop the clumping is to remove the rubber discharge chute, it really opens the deck up and allows the grass to fly alot further...almost too far.

    That particular Toro model (74015) is actually a 5 yr/1500 hour warranty. Great comparison. As far as the sealed vs. serviceable bearings, I side with sealed bearings all day. When they're sealed you don't see warranty claims getting disputed. And with as long as sealed bearings last it will actually be cheaper to run a sealed bearing till it goes out, then replace with a new one vs the cost of grease and time spent greasing over that time period. Especially since the sealed bearings typically last north of 1,000 hrs. Especially if you have a large fleet of 10 plus mowers, all that time and hassle to keep up with greasing all those zerks every week.

    • @mainstreetmower

    I have the same Toro. My favorite part about it is how long it can run on one tank of gas. I have a landscaping company and one of my commercial contracts is through the government in a 5 acre satillite field. Its all native grass and does not grow super fast, but because the government wastes money, they want it mowed weekly, every week, all year round even in winter when the grass is not even growing. The Toro makes quick work of those 5 acres and it can do it all on one tank. It gives me something to do during the winter haha.

    I liked the video and the side by side comparisons of the two monster zero turns. The Toro did cut better even though you did cut the new home lawn, but that grass wasn't manicured and very hard to even stripe with either mower. Soft dirt and with the flags stating where the sprinkler system was going would be a tough cut until it's been installed after a few years.

    Since I live in the mountains and have very hilly terrain, neither of these would work for me. For hilly terrain, a zero turn with an actual steering wheel is phenomenal. I have the Cub Cadet RZT-S which is not a commercial mower but it's for my property and I absolutely love it. I can mow any terrain with it and believe me I have some very steep hills. It does much, much better than a traditional lawn tractor. Obviously for mostly flat areas, these mowers in this video are the way to go.

    • @mainstreetmower
      @mainstreetmower  ปีที่แล้ว

    I also had something to add, I have the toro 5000 series. As you know the front tires are flat free which doesn’t require any air. A few months back one of my tires has came loose from the the wheel. Any idea how to fix this? Thanks man love the video

    PS with the JD we mowed properties that has grass taller then that as the properties were near the coast of Texas .
    The JD minced the clippings real fine and so yes even with grass that was typically taller then the deck , it only took the know how to mow without leaving clippings or clumps everywhere.
    We also just attached a bungee cord to the discharge chute so that it was all the way back and the clippings had a better chance to not clump up .
    Ask the lawn guys that are pros how to mow grass in a certain patterns so that ya have either very little clippings or clumps .

    The Toro grass shute has a curve in vs the flat shute of the Hustler, which makes a big difference in discharge. The trick I use is to raise the shute with a bunge cord so it can throw the clippings farther and on a windy day the wind helps spread the clippings. When I finish I raise the deck and go over the clippings and spread them.

    • @mainstreetmower

    My Toro 4000 has 600 hours and I haven’t changed the first belt. It has been the most reliable machine I have ever run… that being said, it does lack some cut quality compared to other mowers I’ve been on.
    It will be hard to buy anything other than Toro because time is money, and there is no down time with Toro mowers…

    I have used Toro and Hustler. Hustlers drive the smoothest of all mowers I have tried. I think that it has to do with the way they set up the linkages, and I also love that putting the sticks out automatically engages the parking brake. I run a 60" Hyperdrive with now 1200 hours on the original spindles and still do not have play. I do not think that I am 100 percent satisfied with the cut, but it does cut well. I have an operator controlled discharge chute OCDC, so it does not have a deflector and the clippings spread fine. With the OCDC down, mulching with out a mulch kit, there is some blowout and windrow, but it keeps the clippings out of beds. I am buying a Toro Grandstand to try out, so I am curious about the cut difference.

    • @mainstreetmower
      @mainstreetmower  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I’m a dealer that carries both brand and for the most part both are given an accurate assessment but I will say that if you are a customer shopping both of these brands, the 4000 should really be compared to the super-z. The X1 is more like a Toro 3000.

    I don't know how mower companies gauge the cut height versus the setting, but my Kubota Z422 at 3.5" cuts a lot lower than my neighbors Hustler at 3.5". And that could come down to how the deck was leveled. Either way, in your tests, don't think you could go wrong with either mower. I have a Kubota so I have no skin in this game. Just my observations.

    Went from Troro Super Z to
    Hustler X -One…
    Both of these mowers are beasts.
    Great machines.
    Actually don’t see a noticeable difference in the overall work these machines are capable of doing but I’m well satisfied.
    After twenty years of hard mowing I finally gave the old Toro away.
    My only regret is not having a local dealership in my area.
    The dealer I purchased from in Lynchburg Va. has apparently gone out of business.
    Hustler service and parts are a pain to readily get in Bedford Va.
    Hustler is not a popular brand in my neck of the woods.
    Toro is king here.
    Probably should have stayed with Toro because of that.

Longer frame , wider rear end, weight plates mounted up under, hyperdrive hydro system, 35hp dry sump Kawi idk if that’s standard but don’t think it is, mud tires from factory,,, they grip slopes WAY better, HUSTLER ATZ, wish they still made them you can find them for sale occasionally
