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.
- Masport TTM98SM — residential: typical home lawns; 39-inch deck; gas powered
- Husqvarna TS 112 — residential: typical home lawns; 37-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- TTM98SM uses a Masport engine; TS 112 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.
- TTM98SM has a 5-Speed manual transmission; TS 112 has a Hydrostatic transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
- TTM98SM lists at A$3,799; TS 112 lists at A$4,499, a A$700 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- TTM98SM has a published top speed of 4.7 mph; TS 112 has a published top speed of 5.6 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.
- TTM98SM has a 12 hp engine; TS 112 has a 13.8 hp engine, a 1.8 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.
