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.

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.
- Bobcat ZT7000 Zero-Turn Mower — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 61-inch deck; gas powered
- Wright ZTS 61 FT730V — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 61-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 4 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- ZT7000 Zero-Turn Mower holds 15 gal (56.8 L) of fuel; ZTS 61 FT730V holds 7.5 gal (28.4 L) of fuel, a 7.5 gal difference. Tank size bounds how long a machine runs between stops. Consumption varies with engine, load and speed, so hours per tank are not fixed.
- ZT7000 Zero-Turn Mower has a published top speed of 13 mph; ZTS 61 FT730V has a published top speed of 10 mph, a 3 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
- ZT7000 Zero-Turn Mower weighs 1,541 lbs (699 kg); ZTS 61 FT730V weighs 1,210 lbs (548.9 kg), a 331 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What ZT7000 Zero-Turn Mower's weight means for a trailer ›
- ZT7000 Zero-Turn Mower has a 20 hp engine; ZTS 61 FT730V has a 24 hp engine, a 4 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.
calculated figures and what isn’t comparable
Calculated by MowerFacts
- ZT7000 Zero-Turn Mower works out to 6.4 acres/hour; ZTS 61 FT730V works out to 4.9 acres/hour, a 1.5 acres/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.
