lesco 52" hydro opinions

[nova385]

Woundering if anyone here has owned one -- I am going to look at a used one. I can get for $800 w/sulky and grass gobbler. I have a Ferris belt drive now and need to know what to check on a hydro. The unit has 550 hrs on it. Is this a lot?

thanks

is this the one that was on e-bay?

if it is and it starts good and runs good and does what you think it should and you are happy, buy the thing.

I would in a heart beat given my satisfaction as described as above.

check it out.
