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.
- Kubota T2290KWT-48 — prosumer: larger home properties and light acreage; 48-inch deck; gas powered
- Husqvarna TC 220TD — prosumer: larger home properties and light acreage; 43-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- T2290KWT-48 uses a Kawasaki GH739V-3 engine; TC 220TD uses a Husqvarna 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.
- T2290KWT-48 has a Hydro-Gear G730 transmission; TC 220TD has a Hydrostatic with Automatic Differential Lock transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
- T2290KWT-48 has a 1,219 mm (48 in) deck; TC 220TD has a 1,080 mm (42.5 in) deck, a 139 mm difference. Deck width sets how much grass each pass covers. Mowing time also depends on ground speed, turns and obstacles, so a wider deck alone does not fix the job's length. Time both decks on your own lawn ›
- T2290KWT-48 has a 21.5 hp engine; TC 220TD has a 24.5 hp engine, a 3 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.
- T2290KWT-48 has a published top speed of 6.7 mph; TC 220TD has a published top speed of 6.2 mph, a 0.5 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
