Just looked up Consumers Reports on riding mowers the other day, and they didn't like Cub Cadet's reliability.
On the other hand, when I look at the $1500 John Deere, (which CR didn't review), I see a lot of low ratings due to problems, too. I've read the 100-series John Deere mowers are "not real John Deere" - rebadged MTD mowers? - but I'm not sure I can justify spending twice as much on a 300-series JD.
