Compare Mowers
List prices are the manufacturer’s published figures, re-checked daily; they exclude tax, freight and dealer setup.
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.

- ZENITH 60 - KAWASAKI lists at $8,299; PRO-TURN ZX 60 KAWASAKI lists at $9,999, a $1,700 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- ZENITH 60 - KAWASAKI has a published top speed of 8 mph; PRO-TURN ZX 60 KAWASAKI has a published top speed of 8.5 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.
