Our take on the Cub Cadet Riding Mower AutoChoke Engine Drive Gas Rear Engine Mulch Kit Included

This is a rear-engine riding mower with a 30-inch stamped steel deck, a 10.5 HP single-cylinder engine and hydrostatic drive. The small deck and 18-inch turning radius suit tight suburban yards and gates a full-size tractor can't clear. It side-discharges and can mulch with the included kit. It is a compact, entry-level rider rather than a garden tractor.

Questions and answers

Is the 30-inch deck big enough?
For lots under about an acre with open lawn, yes. Expect more passes than a 42- or 46-inch tractor, so larger or wide-open yards take noticeably longer.
Can it handle hills?
It is best on flat to gently sloped ground. The rear-engine layout and small tires limit traction on steep grades, and there is no cruise control.
Does it mulch?
Yes. A mulch kit is included, and the single blade is set up for side discharge or mulching.
How fast is it?
Hydrostatic foot control gives variable speed rather than fixed gears. It is built for mowing, not hauling, and has no cruise control.
What maintenance does it need?
Change the engine oil and check the blade and air filter each season. The 12V, 150 CCA battery needs charging or storage care over winter.
When is it cheapest?
Compact riders like this usually drop in price in late fall and early spring clearance. Check the price history before buying.
