I am very close to buying a 52/27 wright zk want some info from people who have them. How happy are you with it is it fast enough for your yards I will be mowing 1acre and up with it. I want to save a little time compared to my wright stander 48. Any information is helpful.

the zk is very fast, i was looking at buying the 52/27 myself, i demoed one the other day and loved it. i feel like it was twice as fast as my 36" stander. also it DOMINATED hills, i cut hills with this mower that my 48" walk behind wouldnt do, and i did it extremely fast. make sure you do your homework though, would it really be necessary to spend $10,000 on a new mower when you already have a 48" stander? i decided not to buy one because i could get a very high quality zero turn for a lot less than the price of a new zk.

Here is my situation If you buy a high end zero turn with a bagger yourat about 12k or more. so I think it evens out right there. I mean thats what I am thinking also I would love to have a backup if either one go down.
