I never hear much about the stander-mowing units. I did a search and found lots of posts and pretty much there is little bad said about them. Everybody loves them. This is where I am confused and apprehensive because I dont see them much and dont hear about them much and if they were so great why are the major equipment makers not making similar models and all you guys dont have one.
I have seen them used in Kansas City. I want to know what people like about them. Also what are the cons why are they not more popular. I dont want to hear about the argument about standing versus riding, (I Like riding on my Pro-slide) both options have their advantages.
They look really compact and easy to get around for residential accounts. Tell me what why you use them or dont use the standing units like Wright stander. I am thinking about getting one unless you tell me different. (I wont be able to demo one because to far away and that is a con #1)
Also has does its production compare with a ZTR or my Hydro walk-behind in residential lawns?
Here is some stuff I know.
Pros.
Less space on trailer
Productive
Great on hills
Cons.
Tree limbs watch out. (Same for ZTR and walk-behinds)
Fewer dealers
What about the controls? (I am used to pistol grips.)
No floating deck (I like floating decks)
