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.
- PRO-TURN 152 KAWASAKI holds 10 gal (37.9 L) of fuel; 526V holds 4 gal (15.1 L) of fuel, a 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.
- PRO-TURN 152 KAWASAKI uses a Kawasaki® engine; 526V uses a Vanguard 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.
- PRO-TURN 152 KAWASAKI has a published top speed of 10 mph; 526V has a published top speed of 8 mph, a 2 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
- PRO-TURN 152 KAWASAKI has a 22 hp engine; 526V has a 26 hp engine, a 4 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.
- PRO-TURN 152 KAWASAKI lists at $10,799; 526V lists at $11,595, a $796 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
