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.
- Z454 has a published top speed of 10 mph; Z-STANCE 52 KAWASAKI has a published top speed of 7 mph, a 3 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
- Z454 has a Steel deck; Z-STANCE 52 KAWASAKI has a 10 ga deck.
- Z454 has Collect/Mulch/Side discharge discharge; Z-STANCE 52 KAWASAKI has Side discharge.
- Z454 holds 6 gal (22.7 L) of fuel; Z-STANCE 52 KAWASAKI holds 4.5 gal (17 L) of fuel, a 1.5 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.
- Z454 lists at $9,199; Z-STANCE 52 KAWASAKI lists at $8,399, a $800 difference. List price is the maker's own figure before tax, freight and dealer setup. Dealers set the final price.
