It has a little bit different design than most of the other stand-on mowers on the market today. I first would want to hear what people think of it when it comes available before I would go out and buy one.

I was just told that it would be about a year from now before available. Then you get to be like Chuck Yeager and do their testing for them! After you buy it that is.

Same here, my Wright dealer is also a Toro dealer. Could be interesting, I have no plans to which, Wright Stander has always been good to me.

It looks nice to me ... the nice part is the the stand rack on the rear for the operator folds up to allow it to convert to a WB if you need one !!

My opinion on standers is, give it a lift-on-the-fly deck and you'll have the most productive, compact machine for smaller properties.

Anything Toro with Turbo Force Deck you can't go wrong. Toro puts out a top quality product. I'm sure it will not be cheap.
