When I bought my X350 I caught heat for not getting a Zero Turn. My mower goes 5.5 mph with a short turning radius. I don't have to hit reverse switch to reverse cut. I have lots of obstacles and a ditch to cut. Would not trade it for a Zero Turn. AC guys were watching me cut and even commented where did you get a mower that moves and cuts like that. I even offered several people who had Zero Turn to come and cut and we would compare but no takers. I have stuck my mower a couple of times with once my daughter brought her boyfriend to help which he brought his Zero Turn and didn't make it far.
