This video and your others on the T100 great - thanks. How has the Craftsman mower been holding up? Two very different mowers designed for different jobs really. The ExMark is a commerical mower while the Craftsman is a residential use mower. To the point of the other commenter, the ExMark will last a very long time just by it's very construction and quality of parts - the Kawasaki engine is definitely superior to the Briggs. Here is the thing though - does a homeowner cutting an acre or two really need a commercial mower? In my opinion, not really. This is where the residential mower is best suited - small yards.
If you are a decent mechanic or know a decent mechanic get the xmark. A well kept industrial machine can keep going forever and the zero turn is better then tight turn. The craftsman is a MTD and will have many small to large failures coming in its life. I think I may have worked out the problems with my t240 but it took 2 years.

That Exmark will slaughter the Crapsman 😂
That's not a zero turn mower it's a stand on mower
