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.

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.

  • Exmark Radius E-Series (RDE 60 in) — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 60-inch deck; gas powered
  • Hustler Turf TrimStar — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 60-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
  1. Radius E-Series (RDE 60 in) uses a Kawasaki FR730 engine; TrimStar uses a Kawasaki FS691 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.
  2. Radius E-Series (RDE 60 in) holds 7 gal (26.5 L) of fuel; TrimStar holds 3.4 gal (12.9 L) of fuel, a 3.6 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.
  3. Radius E-Series (RDE 60 in) has a published top speed of 8 mph; TrimStar has a published top speed of 6.3 mph, a 1.7 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
  4. Radius E-Series (RDE 60 in) cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 5 in (127 mm); TrimStar cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 4.5 in (114 mm). The cut-height range is the shortest and tallest cut the deck offers. Most lawns are kept well inside it.
  5. Radius E-Series (RDE 60 in) has a 24 hp engine; TrimStar 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.
