I used a cub cadet for 7 years commercially cutting style for over 7 years on a residential mower. I just got a Toro mower at the end of season last year and I love it as much as my cub ( i need to put a starter on it and she will be back running) I just suggest staying away for the briggs and straton motors I had issues with the last 2 mower I had that had them.
