  • Our take on the Husqvarna Z242F

    The Husqvarna Z242F is a gasoline zero-turn mower with a 42-inch fabricated deck, hydrostatic wheel motors and lever steering. It runs a 22 hp Kawasaki V-twin, reaches 6.5 mph and holds 3.5 gallons of fuel. It suits homeowners with roughly an acre or two of open lawn who want fast mowing and a tight turning radius. Against 42-inch rivals it stands out with a fabricated deck and serviceable hydrostatic drives, but it is heavy at 566 lb and loud at about 100 dB.

    Questions and answers

    Is the Husqvarna Z242F good for a one-acre lawn?
    Yes. A 42-inch deck and 6.5 mph top speed make short work of an acre, and the tight turning radius helps around beds and trees.
    Does it bag, mulch and side discharge?
    It side discharges out of the box and mulches with the included mulch kit on most versions. Bagging requires a separate collection kit.
    What engine does the Z242F use?
    A 22 hp Kawasaki V-twin gasoline engine paired with hydrostatic wheel motors.
    How fast is it and how big is the fuel tank?
    Top speed is 6.5 mph and the tank holds 3.5 gallons, enough for several acres between fill-ups.
    Is it hard to learn to drive?
    Lever steering takes a few mows to master. Start slow in an open area, since the controls are sensitive at speed.
    How loud is it?
    Around 100 dB at the operator's ear, so wear hearing protection during long sessions.
    Where is the Husqvarna Z242F cheapest?
    At Tractor Supply Co, for $3,799.99, as of our latest check.
    What do buyers say about the Husqvarna Z242F?
    Rated 4.1 out of 5 from 38 ratings.
