What Sets Spartan Mowers Apart from the Competition?

Spartan Mowers distinguish themselves with innovative design, exceptional durability, and superior performance. Here are some unique features and qualities that set them apart from the competition:

  • Design and Construction: Spartan prides itself on its robust and rugged design. Their mowers frequently feature welded tubular steel frames, which is an aspect they emphasize for increased durability and longevity.

  • Advanced Features: Some Spartan mowers offer unique features like the Spartan Key Switch, which starts the engine and can also turn on and off LED lights and other mower features. They’ve also introduced innovations like a foot-operated parking brake.

  • Integrated Technology: Some of the higher-end Spartan mowers incorporate touch screen technology, providing operators with real-time feedback on the mower’s performance and other metrics.

  • Pricing and Value Proposition: Spartan aims to provide a balance between premium features and affordability. They offer mowers that come with features often found in high-end brands but at a more competitive price point.

Spartan Lawn Mower Reviews – See What Spartan Owners Are Saying

Here are just a few of the reviews posted on Google Reviews in August 2023:

QUALITY – 5 Star Review

I own a Spartan RZ-C 42in. This mower is considered a Residential mower but to be honest it’s built as Commercial mower. It features a wide wheel base that helps with cutting on banks. And the cut is as good as a Kubota or better. I would purchase another spartan and if the business grows I will be making the purchase in a year.

Mark R, Google Review – August 2023
COMFORT – 5 Star Review

I have a spartan zero turn Kawasaki engine. It’s awesome. Lawn looks great. The Spartan seat is comfortable and I don’t even know I have been sitting in it for 2 hours straight. This is some machine.

David Turner, Google Review – August 2023

SPEED – 5 Star Review

This is the best tractor I’ve ever bought. I had a John Deere. It took me three hours to cut the grass with the Spartan. I’m done in an hour and a half.

William Arnold, Google Review – August 2023

PERFORMANCE – 5 Star Review

Was originally going to buy a hustler until I saw the spartan just looked like a better built mower! Purchased the spartan and love it, cuts clean plenty of power, well designed controls did not disappoint! Only wish the mulch kit was a little better priced was hoping to purchase before leaves start falling we will see how that goes? Don’t be afraid to purchase this mower they got it right! Thanks spartan made mowing fun!

David Heath, Google Review – August 2023
COMFORT & PERFORMANCE – 5 Star Review

I recently purchased two Spartan RZ-HD zero turn mowers and a Spartan Stand-On mower and have been nothing but impressed with them. They’re incredibly comfortable, mow very well, and are easy to maintenance. Couldn’t be more impressed with them.
