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 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Vertex X-Series (72 in) lists at $16,099; Z572XS lists at $18,399, a $2,300 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
- Vertex X-Series (72 in) holds 14 gal (53 L) of fuel; Z572XS holds 12 gal (45.4 L) of fuel, a 2 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.
- Vertex X-Series (72 in) has a 35 hp engine; Z572XS has a 38.5 hp engine, a 3.5 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.
- Vertex X-Series (72 in) cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 5 in (127 mm); Z572XS cuts from 1 in (25 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 X-Series (72 in) weighs 1,400 lbs (635 kg); Z572XS weighs 1,359 lbs (616.4 kg), a 41 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Vertex X-Series (72 in)'s weight means for a trailer ›
