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’s different? The 4 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Vertex E-Series (36 in) cuts from 1 in (25 mm) to 4.5 in (114 mm); Stander B 36 FX600E cuts from 2 in (51 mm) to 5 in (127 mm). The cut-height range is the shortest and tallest cut the deck offers. Most lawns are kept well inside it.
- Vertex E-Series (36 in) has a published top speed of 7.5 mph; Stander B 36 FX600E has a published top speed of 7 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.
- Vertex E-Series (36 in) weighs 779 lbs (353.4 kg); Stander B 36 FX600E weighs 740 lbs (335.7 kg), a 39 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Vertex E-Series (36 in)'s weight means for a trailer ›
- Vertex E-Series (36 in) has a 18.5 hp engine; Stander B 36 FX600E has a 19 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.
