After mowing seven acres with a 54in Husky and taking five hours to complete, this Gravely 72inch is a god send. I can mow the whole property in 1 1/2 hours. Mows fast and no making turn arounds at the end of a row. I actually enjoy mowing grass now. The air ride seat is comfortable and enjoyable. An individual who has a lot of grass to mow should really consider a Gravely zero-turn mower. The 35hp Kawasaki motor has awesome power. Best purchase I have made in a long time. great investment. The performance is outstanding. The ride is better than any zero turn I test drove. I test drove Dixie Chopper, X-mark, John Deere, Husqvarna, and whatever that brand that Tractor Supply sells. None compared to Gravely.

Been wanting to own a 400 series for some years. My wife surprised me with a ProTurn 452 with power bagger. Yes.. I have a great wife.
I was quite aware of the build reputation and build quality as I had been eyeing the units for about 3 years. Build quality is incredible. No issues here.
Then the disappointments...
The unit does not suck up as much debris as my 10 year old 26hp Craftsman Yard Tractor. Now to be sure... I am no way trying to compare the Gravely to a Craftsman... Clearly Craftsman is 8 or even 10 levels below the Gravely. So I am commenting specifically the ability to suck up spring and fall clean-up yard debris. The Craftsman with 3rd party High Lift Blades sucked up everything... wet leaves, twigs, gravel, even sucked up full size irrigation covers into the blades on more than one occasion. The Gravely left all manner of the above still on the lawn. What would have been sucked up in the past now I would need to rake and hand pick up. It is almost like I am making up a story here.. but am not. What a huge disappointment. Now don;t get me wrong.. the Craftsman would clog the chute like crazy unless you were moving at a snails pace, but it did suck up all that stuff, and the Gravely was not even coming close. I immed called and worked with my Gravely Dealer. They too (just as you may) find the phone conversation just flat incomprehensible. I get it.. me too... almost unbelievable. I then sent numerous pictures of the lawn done by the 452, all the aforementioned debris still on the lawn, and pictures of the same areas using the Craftsman.. all the debris gone. I concluded that the power cute on the Gravely is powerful enough to blast anything that gets into the chute area, but the blades themselves had only mediocre lifting capability to get matter up into the blade area. The dealer planned to order me a set of aftermarket high lift blades for the Gravely at no cost to me. I did not try the blades to do a 'before / after comparison (read on)

This is a wonderful mower. We cut around 30 acres a week with it and have never had any problems. The build quality is excellent!! I can mow about 8 hours straight without having to refuel and the ride is very very smooth. Will buy another when the time comes.

I bought the Pro 460 a couple of months ago and it has been without a doubt the best Investment/ Purchase I have made. I cut a little over 11 acres and this machine handles it with no troubles, if I get rained out and can't cut for 2 weeks she still powers right through. I looked into all the Pro Series Zero turns, from JD to Bad Boy, Toro, Xmark, SCAG etc.. and for all the options I was looking for and cost effective.... over 11,000.00 is a huge investment this machine was. The Air Ride Seat is Very Comfortable, controls and maneuverability are crisp and quick.Sound isn't very loud, I'm over 100 + hours already, have changed the oil 3 times a d its very convenient and easy to get to. Digital Operator Info display takes care of tracking hours, oil & air filter maintenance etc... The only thing I'm not impressed with is tires or tire traction, but I'll change them out soon enough. Over all Operator Comfort is Outstanding especially for All Day Operations-No Fatigue at end of day, Maintenance is simple. Best of all its a Gravely, made in the USA for Years. I may upgrade for Pro 472

Rough ride, Doesn't mow tall grass well.
The mower deck balls up bales of grass & spits them out periodically , doesn't come close to my 2005 Dixie Chopper. I'm thinking about selling it.

Comments about Gravely Pro-Turn 400 Zero Turn Mower (Model 460):
Review of the new 2016 Gravely 460
seat is the best deciding factor for purchase as it much better than previous models. new deck hanger design needs work....brackets stick up high and you trip over it. The deck bounces ALOT MORE than the previous years design. Even though the seat is better the vibration to your legs and knees are worse. So your back feels better but your legs and knees hurt more than previous years 460. FIX THE DECK HANGERS.
The gas filler neck is a pinch point and the filler hole is way to small....takes forever to fill up the tanks.
Cut quality is pretty good...but the results for me are better when the baffles are off and notched high lifts are installed. ..clipping dispersal is much better.
The 33hp efi is acceptable for the 460 but still needs more power...but fuel savings are nice. avg about 1.2hr vs 2hr with 35hp kawasaki that backfires all the time.
summary fix the deck hangers design and fix the fuel neck and you a have top notch mower.
Comments about Gravely Pro-Turn 400 Zero Turn Mower (Model 460):
This is my first zero turn unit, and from how well the Pro Turn 460 is built, will probably be my last. It is built like a tank, but rides like a Cadillac. The air ride seat, combined with the isolation mounts of the foot deck and seat deck make for one gentle ride. You really cannot feel the mower running AT ALL while seated and all but the most severe bumps in your yard will feel like riding on a cloud. The Kohler EFI engine is a pleasure to operate. Turn the key on, wait for the fuel pumps to stop priming, turn the key to crank and the motor starts right up. No need to worry whether or not should you choke or not, cause their aint one. And talk about fuel economy, I cut about 6 acres and use less than a single tank of gas, probably about 5 or 6 gallons. With the EFI youn dont have to worry about bogging the engine either, I have to bog mine down and there have been a couple of times my grass has gotten pretty tall (1 ft or better tall). I bought mine with the mulching kit and it will give you the finest looking cut you could want, with no clippings pile up anywhere. I have run in to only a couple of items I would like to see improvements on. The mechanized lift needs to be a standard feature on a mower of this caliber and price. It needs some type of tool / storage box, I like to keep a pair of pruning shears with me and my old JD had a tool box built in to the fender. The standard turf tires do not have enough tread on them for my opinion. If you get even the slightest amount of mud in the tread, the tire becomes a racing slick, and with the weight of this unit you quickly become stuck. Overall though, I LOVE MY Gravely!
Comments about Gravely Pro-Turn 400 Zero Turn Mower (Model 460):
I can mows my 6 acres in about 2.5 Hrs. with my new Pro-Turn 400. The deck is heavy gauge steel and the mower is well built. I did have the retention spring pop off the hydraulic drive belt after 25 hrs of running. The dealer came out and installed a new one two days later. The air ride seat saves my lower back from the rough ground. The weight of the mower can cause the mower deck to scallop the lawn when you turn at to high of speed. If the ground is moist at all the rear tires will rip out the grass when you make a tight turn. I believe the weight of the mower contributes to this issue. This is the second Gravely zero turn I have owned. The first was a 260Z. Its a good mower so far.

i have had Gravely machines for the last 15yrs and was always satisfied until i bought this one in May. Had it in the shop at just over a 100hrs for some reason it chewed up the deck belt. In the shop again at 150hrs for broken welds on the frame rails now it needs a ball plunger screw for the dial a cut. The dealer loaned me a new scag cheetah while the gravely was out of service and that machine is ten times better. Had so many compliments on the quality of cut that it left. Sorry Gravely but you dropped the ball on this one,will be going with Scag in the near future.

Been in business since the early 1990s, used every major zero turn...Exmark, Toro, Grasshopper, Hustler, and Scag etc. I have a 2013 460 that has been more durable than any mower I have ever owned, just picked up a 2016 460, cut 15 yards today, All I can say is that Gravely just took mowing to the next level. .....Beast. ....COMFORTABLE. ...FAST! I can't wait until I go to work tomorrow. .....33hp Kohler efi fuel saver. .....THANK YOU GRAVELY!

Comments about Gravely Pro-Turn 400 Zero Turn Mower (Model 452):
I am the Grounds Foreman for the Arlington I.S.D. I use 2 of the 472 diesels to mow my softball and baseball fields. I have been very happy with the way these mowers cut. We used to buy the Kubota z turn diesels. These are a lot cheaper and do an awesome job. . Overall I would pick a Gravely over any of the competition. We plan on buying 2 more next year.
Comments about Gravely Pro-Turn 400 Zero Turn Mower (Model 452):
I use to own Scag until I mowed with a Gravely 460. Amazing cut! Love the performance of the 5400 integrated pumps. It's easy to service, and handles the slopes well. Scag needs to go back to the drawing board, they are over engineered BIG TIME!

Comments about Gravely Pro-Turn 400 Zero Turn Mower (Model 452):
I have owned many brands of commercial mowers (scag, toro, john deere, etc) and ive been running a commercial business for almost 10 years. About 3 years ago I bought my first Gravely and ive never looked at any other brand since and will not. Gravely has provided me with top quality, very dependable machines that run all day with no problems at all. The first Gravely I bought was a Pro Turn 252 and we still run that machine today. She has almost 1000 hours on her and ive never even had to replace a belt on that machine....nothing but normal oil changes etc and she cuts and runs like new ! My new purchase was a 452 about 3 months ago. The 400 series is the most comfortable machines you will ever find. Very happy with it and happy with the Kohler EFI 29 HP engine as well. Im saving gas and I can see a big difference in fuel consumption. I now run my business with nothing but Gravely mowers. 3 commercial Zero turns running everyday all day long cutting everything from apartment complexes to high end residential homes and estates and everything in between. Before you make your next purchase of any brand of commercial mower, you better get to your local Gravely dealer and demo a Gravely today !! You will be glad you did. I put my word on it !
