Great machine

I love this machine have the zt xl 60 with the kawi engine. My yard is a acre and I can blow through it in about 40-45 mins and looks great when I am finished. Went from a zero turn cub cadet to this and I will run nothing but gravely from now on. I grew up with simplicity mowers and cub cadets and this mower blows both of those away no comparison. My yard looks good enough I am now mowing 4 of my neighbors yards a week just for the fun of running my machine and the lil extra money I get for my time is just a kicker. Cut quality, comfort and ease of use make these machines top of the game.

Would recommend

I mow 2.5 acres per week. Takes 1hr 10 minutes cuts evenly, and powers through tall grass. Discharge is excellent. Kawasaki engine is my preference. Previously had yazoo-Kees max-2 for past 12 years, the gravely is obviously not as heavy bilt, but also less than half the price! Best value under 4500.

An excellent lawn mower!

My brother owns a landscaping company and recommended the Gravely mower to me. I live in Texas and cut about 2 acres of lawn and field per week in the summer. This has been an excellent mower with one exception: The cooling fins were to long causing the belt to slip. I called my dealer about this and he came right out and trimmed the fins. The mower has worked perfectly since then. I would recommend it to anyone!

Great mower 80 hours, 52" cut

2016 XL 52" cut with 80 hours and a 23hp Kawasaki engine. So far this mower has been perfect. After 80 hours it functions the same as the day I purchased it. I haven't had any service performed other than regular maintenance.

Leaking

within 5 hours of use there has been a constant leak of either transmission fluid or oil coming from the left side of the mower. The transmission looks good, all bolts are tight. The leak looks to be at the base of the Kawasaki engine. I have tightened the drain plug and still a constant leak. I can really trouble shoot because the transmission fluid is motor oil as well. I took the fluid to the local dealer after 9 hours of use, and the dealer said I would have to pay $100 to have them look at it? Figured excessive leaking on a new mower would be covered under the 5 year warranty.... Probably would not buy another.

solid mower for the money

I have owned multiple XL models dating back to 2008. I started with and XL 48" with a Kohler and traded 2 years later for a 54" XL with a Kawasaki. I used that mower commercially for 5 years and still have it...It has over 1600 hours and the hour meter quit working for half a summer, and then for whatever reason began working again. The frame on the old XL models broke several times and I welded it and it keeps on chugging...It is almost wore out and I use it only occasionally, but can't believe it still runs. I now use the newer XL in a 52" model purchased in 2015, and it has been a good machine so far with 385 hours, and it keeps on keeping on. The decks are solid, the frame is good, (new design) and the Kawasaki engine is by far the best engine I have ever owned. The only engine I have ever heard of being better is a Honda, and those are not available on a Gravely, so I can't speak to that first hand. Mine gets an average of 15-20 hours a week put on it and the mower and engine have been flawless. My ONLY complaints are the bagger and hitch. The hitch is too light weight and the full bags will bend it if you fill it to the max, ..I simply built a new, heavier hitch and took care of the problem, but realize not everyone will be able to do that. It is not an expensive bagger, but isn't the most durable thing. The 2800 hydros are great and for the money there is no better mower if it has the Kawasaki engine...I will never buy another mower unless it has a Kawasaki ..Homeowners who have large lawns, this is the mower for you. I have a 52" deck on mine...For the price, the quality is unbeatable...I am writing this review after 3 summers of mowing to give others an accurate idea of what it is like after warranties are gone and its your responsibility to pay for maintenance. I have put on one deck belt and kept good blades on it, changed the oil and filters, and other than that, I have not had to replace anything on the mower of significance.

Very satisfying zero turn mower

I researched for six months on what type of mower I wanted. I had a John Deere 320 that was becoming a money pit, so it was time to buy something different. I visited the Gravely dealer in Sandusky Michigan five times to make up my mind. Finally when they had their Mowerfest, I was hooked on the ZTXL52. I purchased it and it is the best machine that I have ever had for mowing. I mow five acres with it and my mow time was cut down drastically leaving me more time to spend elsewhere. Thanks Gravely and Ball Equipment. Hooked for life.

Luv my XTL 42 inch

I look forward to mowing. Have replaced the molded rubber chute with a heavy steel 3d part door, and fabricated a "striper" that I mounted to the frame, between the hitch plate and the mower frame. Have had for about 2 months now, and it operates on my small front yard, and larger back yard with lots of trees, exceptionally well. Also use it to mow daughters much larger lawn.

Best Mower I've Ever Owned

What makes this outstanding mower even better is the most incredible customer service I have EVER received from any dealer of any kind - and I'm talking about Anderson Tractor in Carthage, Texas. I live in Western Louisiana and purchased my mower from them - bypassing my Gravely dealer who is 10 minutes away - because of their unbelievable customer service. If you are contemplating buying a great mower, please try these people - even if you do not live in East Texas. They will deliver it to your door - at a better price than what your local dealer would charge you for the exact mower. I have never witnessed the kind of service and care I've received from this company. Unheard of today. Anyway, I've had Dixie Chopper, Toro & Husqvarna - none of them are near the quality of my Gravely. Thank you Gravely and an even bigger thank you to Anderson Tractor in Carthage, Texas - Mr. Anderson, Melissa and ALL of their employees! You people are the BEST!
