Reviews

This mower is exactly what you would expect. The mower has the right engine to power two blades fast enough to cut perfect with a 32″ deck.

This mower is heavy, duh! Ok so its not the same as manoeuvring a 21″ small mower. Its heavy you will notice a difference but its way better.

This is a very durable machine too. I haven’t had it long but haven’t had anything major happen. As with anything I am sure things will break, the only way to stop that though is not to use it. So in short this is a great mower and I believe worth every penny charged for it.

The 21″ mower still has its place on my trailer cause this mower doesn’t have a bagger or mulch kit as of yet and I know we are all waiting patiently for that, but great job Ferris on the design and forethought with this machine.

“Very nimble mower, fun to use, powerful, easy to turn and can be driven with one hand.

Very impressed with the quality. Love the Honda engine and the hydro pump with the open differential.

Good job Ferris!”

Bought this about a month and a half ago to replace a Toro 30″. I have used it on fine grass and thick over grown grass and the cut quality is great, exactly what I expected from my other Ferris mowers.

It does take some time getting used to, definitely have to think about it as a hybrid between a push and walk behind. once you stop trying to muscle it, it moves almost effortlessly.

Only drawbacks, fine tuning the forward/reverse speed with the bar took some time, and wish the bar for blade engagement was either thicker or flat…being thin and round makes a pressure point that gets uncomfortable on larger properties.
