John Deere LA145 Reviews

Review By : MB on 12/11/2009
Price Paid : $2,000.00
Years of Use : 180-Days
Implements : mower only
Purchased From : Lowe's

Strengths runs good, no problems except cutting. It does climb the grade from the lake okay

Weaknesses Got better cut with my old Wal-Mart brand. I bought it for grass at camp..about an acreof bahia, weed mix- not your average lawn turf, but expected better than I get. Leaves tracks in trail like the blades don't meet, but they do. I have to cut at least twice to make look good, more if I wait til it's 6-8" to cut.

Overall What good is a mower that doesn't cut good good?

Strengths Smooth ride Excellent cutting performance Intuitive control layout Nice looking Strong engine Wash ports for the mower deck Easy to clean up after mowing. CUP HOLDERS!

Weaknesses Some of the parts look weak. Longevity concerns

Overall This is a brand new 2009 LA-145 I had delivered on Friday 4/3. I used to own a 1989 Wheel Horse 414-8. I cut the lawn with that old garden tractor for 15 years. While the Deere is light years ahead of the old "Horse" in comfort, power, and cutting ability I doubt that it will last 21 years. Even with light duty and proper maintenance. Light steel frames and plastic parts just can't compare to heavy gauge steel and cast iron for durablity and longevity. Don't get me wrong though. It's a fine tractor and I'm excited to be a new John Deere owner. I've only cut the lawn once with it so far and I'm very impressed with it's abilities. The V-twin is very smooth and powerful. The control layout makes it a joy to operate. I look forward to cutting the lawn now because this tractor makes the job a true pleasure.
