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.

What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Quest E-Series (50 in) lists at $3,799; ZT X 52 KAWASAKI lists at $4,499, a $700 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- Quest E-Series (50 in) weighs 576 lbs (261.3 kg); ZT X 52 KAWASAKI weighs 695 lbs (315.2 kg), a 119 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Quest E-Series (50 in)'s weight means for a trailer ›
- Quest E-Series (50 in) holds 3 gal (11.4 L) of fuel; ZT X 52 KAWASAKI holds 3.5 gal (13.2 L) of fuel, a 0.5 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.
- Quest E-Series (50 in) has a 50 in (1,270 mm) deck; ZT X 52 KAWASAKI has a 52 in (1,321 mm) deck, a 2 in 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 ›
- Quest E-Series (50 in) has a 22 hp engine; ZT X 52 KAWASAKI has a 23 hp engine, a 1 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.
