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.
- F60 Zero Turn Mower holds 8 gal (30.3 L) of fuel; 125VB holds 3 gal (11.4 L) of fuel, a 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.
- F60 Zero Turn Mower uses a Kawasaki® FX600V engine; 125VB uses a Briggs & Stratton 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.
- F60 Zero Turn Mower has a 36 in (914 mm) deck; 125VB has a 41 in (1,041 mm) deck, a 5 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 ›
- F60 Zero Turn Mower has a 36.8 ci (603 cc) engine; 125VB has a 44.2 ci (724 cc) engine, a 7.4 ci difference. Displacement is the engine's size, not its output. A larger engine is not necessarily a more powerful one.
- F60 Zero Turn Mower lists at $8,249; 125VB lists at $8,760, a $511 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
