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.
- S140 Lawn Tractor has a Steel, 12 gauge 0.105 in. 2.7 mm deck; S110 Lawn Tractor has a Steel, 13 gauge 0.090 in. 2.3 mm deck.
- S140 Lawn Tractor has a 44.2 ci (724 cc) engine; S110 Lawn Tractor has a 33 ci (540 cc) engine, a 11.2 ci difference. Displacement is the engine's size, not its output. A larger engine is not necessarily a more powerful one.
- S140 Lawn Tractor has a 48 in (1,219 mm) deck; S110 Lawn Tractor has a 42 in (1,067 mm) deck, a 6 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 ›
- S140 Lawn Tractor has a 22 hp engine; S110 Lawn Tractor has a 19 hp engine, a 3 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.
- S140 Lawn Tractor weighs 468 lbs (212.3 kg); S110 Lawn Tractor weighs 414 lbs (187.8 kg), a 54 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What S140 Lawn Tractor's weight means for a trailer ›
calculated figures
Calculated by MowerFacts
- S140 Lawn Tractor works out to 2.1 acres/hour; S110 Lawn Tractor works out to 1.9 acres/hour, a 0.3 acres/hour difference. Calculated by MowerFacts from deck width and the published top speed at 80% efficiency; it is not a manufacturer figure, and real mowing is slower.
Verified means each manufacturer publishes the figure. A bigger number is only a bigger number; nothing here says which machine is better. The full specification table is below.
