A lot of people just want a good and reliable riding mower (like POULAN PRO LAWN MOWER ) for a great price. They don`t want to pay extra for a big brand name, but would really love to have the quality of brand equipment anyway.
In many industries there are a lot less manufacturers than there are brands - and lawn tractors are such a field: The renowned Swedish manufacturer Husqvarna also builds all Poulan Pro lawn tractors (in the USA, not in Sweden!). So if you get a Poulan Pro riding lawn mower, you will get Husqvarna quality for considerably less money.
And let`s be honest - that is what most people want. They have lots ranging from small city size to about 2 - 3 acres and want best-bang-for-the-buck equipment to mow and do other work on them. It should just do the job and come without any flaws, but it also shouldn`t cost more than it has to.
So does Poulan Pro have winners for the different needs in this range of applications? And which one of them is the right one for you? That`s what we`re going to find out in this review of the best Poulan Pro riding lawn mowers of the model year 2017.
There is one thing to keep in mind: If you are shopping in the cost-efficient niche, it sure helps if you are able to do your own maintenance, because maintenance costs are a considerable part of the overall costs of a lawn mower over the years.
Lawn mowers are not very complex machines and they don`t require heavy or expensive equipment to service them. They are indeed a fun way to learn a little wrenching and save money along the way if you buy the parts and fluids yourself and do the required work.
Poulan Pro is a good brand in this regard, because all parts are available online or through Home Depot, and a lot of components are identical to Craftsman and Husqvarna. They offer a standard 2 year limited warranty for their riding mowers and have a network of service stations if you have a warranty case or do want your equipment serviced by professionals.
