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.
Best suited for
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.
- Husqvarna TS 275XD 42 in — prosumer: larger home properties and light acreage; 42-inch deck; gas powered
- John Deere S240 Lawn Tractor — prosumer: larger home properties and light acreage; 42-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 3 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- TS 275XD 42 in has a Hydrostatic with Automatic Differential Lock transmission; S240 Lawn Tractor has a K46 heavy-duty hydrostatic, two-wheel drive transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
- TS 275XD 42 in runs on Petrol; S240 Lawn Tractor runs on Gasoline. Fuel type sets what you buy and store; it is not a measure of power.
- TS 275XD 42 in holds 4 gal (15.1 L) of fuel; S240 Lawn Tractor holds 2.4 gal (9.1 L) of fuel, a 1.6 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.
