Compare Mowers

Prices are the recommended retail prices published by each manufacturer’s Australian site, in AUD, as read on the date shown on each model’s page; dealers set the final price.

A side-by-side reference of each model's stated specifications. MowerFacts doesn’t give opinions: where a published, spec-derived rule can separate machines we mark a Data Pick and show the rule; here, read the values and decide what fits your needs.

Best suited for

What each model is built for, from its duty class and key specs. This is a neutral reference — MowerFacts does not rank one model above another.

  • Husqvarna TC 114 — residential: typical home lawns; 37-inch deck; gas powered
  • Masport TTM98SM — residential: typical home lawns; 39-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
  1. TC 114 uses a Husqvarna engine; TTM98SM uses a Masport engine. The engine maker builds the engine; the mower maker chooses the model, rating and fit, so the badge alone does not settle output or longevity.
  2. TC 114 lists at A$5,999; TTM98SM lists at A$3,799, a A$2,200 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
  3. TC 114 has a Hydrostatic transmission; TTM98SM has a 5-Speed manual transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
  4. TC 114 has a 14.8 hp engine; TTM98SM has a 12 hp engine, a 2.8 hp difference. Published horsepower is the maker's rating at a stated engine speed. It is a different measure from displacement, and two engines of equal rating can pull differently.
  5. TC 114 has a published top speed of 5.6 mph; TTM98SM has a published top speed of 4.7 mph, a 0.9 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.

Calculated by MowerFacts

  • TC 114 works out to 0.68 ha/hour; TTM98SM works out to 0.59 ha/hour, a 0.10 ha/hour difference. Calculated by MowerFacts from deck width and the published top speed at 80% efficiency; it is not a manufacturer figure, and real mowing is slower.
