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 3 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Radius S-Series (52 in) holds 7 gal (26.5 L) of fuel; ZT5000 Zero-Turn Mower holds 7.8 gal (29.5 L) of fuel, a 0.8 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.
- Radius S-Series (52 in) cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 5 in (127 mm); ZT5000 Zero-Turn Mower cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 4.8 in (121 mm). The cut-height range is the shortest and tallest cut the deck offers. Most lawns are kept well inside it.
- Radius S-Series (52 in) has a 23 hp engine; ZT5000 Zero-Turn Mower has a 23.5 hp engine, a 0.5 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.
