With any Kubota lawnmower, there are a number of factors to consider when buying one. Any mower has to be a combination of being easy and comfortable to use, at the same time being practical and efficient in terms of the work needs to be done.

Kubota Warranty –

The warranty on any tractor or mower is really important, both in terms of the length of time or length of usage that is valid for, but also in terms of any conditions that may be applied to it. Most Kubota dealerships which sell mowers are likely to offer an extended warranty as well.

Extended warranties can sometimes be quite expensive relative to what they are offering, and should be looked at carefully to see if they offer good value for money, and if they are really needed on product.

Comfort – anyone using a Kubota Mower is likely to be sitting down on it for quite extended periods of time, and such comfort is an absolute necessity not a luxury. This applies to type and positioning of the seat, suitable back support, easy reach of controls and overall ease-of-use.

It is really important that all the controls, particularly that affect the cutting height of the deck within easy reach of the operative, and that they are easy-to-use and clear to understand.

Reliability – all Kubota Mowers are designed to be used in different types of land or terrain,  where proper manoeuvrability is a basic necessity of safety, as well as key to a efficient usage. Any Kubota mower needs to be reliable, and be able to be used in such a way as to be rugged and safe at the same time.

Kubota Mowers Reviews

There are almost so many reviews of Kubota Lawn Tractors and Kubota Garden Tractors that it is difficult to know where to begin.  People have differing ideas as to how impartial or important reviews can be, but with a bit of subtle guidance a lot can be learnt from all of them.

You Tube – a lot of Kubota mowers are reviewed on you Tube, especially Kubota Zero Turn Mowers, normally by dealerships or by dealership staff who have an interest in promoting them.

This means of course that they are likely to be promoting Kubota lawn and garden tractors, rather than independently assessing them. Most Kubota dealerships are fairly upfront about this, and there is a lot that can be learned from these videos.

First thing to realise is that you’re not going to be told any of the less popular or unliked things about any of these mowers.

What you will learn about and more importantly be able to see in action is how these mowers tend to work when they go really well. That should give you a sense of seeing them in action, when they are at their best.

Some of the reviews can be quite long, but at least with a video you can jump forward and skip through parts that do not interest you.

Consumer Reports –  there are a number of websites that use the word consumer in them, and some are independent and some are not.

If you can find a completely independent body or association that independently test’s and evaluates Kubota lawn and garden tractors, that should be able to give you a fairly healthy idea of the pros and cons of the machines.

Some consumer websites ask for feedback and reviews from people, and what you tend to find on the sites is that you get purely negative feedback. That feedback is valuable in its own right, but can often give a one-sided view of the problems that people have with kubota mowers.

They do flag up problems that can exist, and these can be taken into account when deciding what type of Kubota lawn or garden tractor to buy.

On the whole, people do not tend to publish favourable reviews on these websites, although some do, it is often difficult to evaluate whether they are genuine reviews or promotional.

Amazon –  people buy many Kubota lawn and garden tractors on Amazon, and it is a place where people do leave a sizeable number of reviews.

Amazon uses a system of verified and unverified reviews, the verrified reviews being left by people who have actually bought the product, as opposed to unverified reviews which are left by people who have not bought the product, at least through Amazon, although they may have bought it somewhere else.

Whilst the problem of genuine versus promotional reviews remains an issue even on Amazon, as a company it sees it as a duty it takes  fairly seriously, and tries to weed out reviews they believe to be fake.

The value of these reviews is largely that they can highlight issues which can then be taken into account when considering what lawn or garden tractor to buy, and raised with Kubota or a Kubota dealership prior to purchase.

Discussion forums –  some people have rather forgotten about discussion forums with the advent of social media, but they contain a rich supply of information that is normally fairly authentic, whilst at the same time, contributed by people who genuinely like their products.

There are many discussion forums for kubota lawn and garden tractors, and the most popular ones will appear in any search on Google or Bing. You can normally browse through the forums and the various threads without having to register or login.

If however you want to participate in a discussion, or ask questions then you are likely to have to register. This is normally a very simple process that requires you to supply a user ID and password, and normally authenticate with an email verification.

Members of these discussion forums welcome and like new members, and like to be involved in problems or issues that are bought to them. This is still one of the most genuine areas of the internet, and somewhere you are likely to find the most valuable information you need on any Kubota lawn or garden tractor.

Used Kubota Mowers, and Where to Buy

The pros and cons of buying a used Kubota mower are pretty similar to those of buying a used car or truck. Given the costs of some top range garden tractors/lawn tractors the costs and risks could in fact be even greater.

The basic premise is that if you buy a used Kubota lawn or garden tractor from a Kubota Dealer, you are likely to pay a premium, but you are also likely to have a vehicle with some degree of pedigree, service history and mechanical worthiness.

A Kubota dealer should do a full check on any mower they are selling, and should be able to provide some degree of service history, as well at hopefully giving you some idea of where and how the vehicle has been used.

Similar to wanting to know how a car has been driven, knowing on what type of land or terrain the mower or tractor has been used is really important. This will give you some indication of his condition, and whether or not the price being asked is a realistic one.

Price aside, even if you get a used mower at a reasonable cost, is likely to be a false investment if it does not function properly, resulting in additional costs for maintenance and repairs, and potentially being dangerous to use if certain parts of it are unsafe.

These are all potential risks, which can be verified or not depending upon the purchasers mechanical knowledge of a Kubota mower. If an individual is confident, then there is a wide range of lawn and garden tractors for sale.

People turn to eBay, AutoTrader, Craigslist as well at ads in local papers. The other option is to use discussion boards or forums online, where there is normally a vast collection of knowledge about all ranges of Kubota mowers, where to buy them and what to look out for in certain models.
