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.
  1. GR2120 has a Kubota HST transmission; X584 Lawn Tractor with 48-in. Deck has a K72 hydrostatic integrated with transaxle transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
  2. GR2120 has Belt drive; X584 Lawn Tractor with 48-in. Deck has Dual belt drive.
  3. GR2120 weighs 968 lbs (439 kg); X584 Lawn Tractor with 48-in. Deck weighs 822 lbs (372.9 kg), a 146 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What GR2120's weight means for a trailer ›
  4. GR2120 has a 21 hp engine; X584 Lawn Tractor with 48-in. Deck has a 24 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.
  5. GR2120 has a published top speed of 6.2 mph; X584 Lawn Tractor with 48-in. Deck has a published top speed of 7.2 mph, a 1 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
