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.
  1. 360Z Zero Turn Mower 2691651 uses a Briggs & Stratton®PXi Series™ engine; Z242F uses a Kawasaki 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.
  2. 360Z Zero Turn Mower 2691651 has a Hydro-Gear® EZT® transmission; Z242F has a Hydrostatic transmission. The transmission grade tracks duty rating and speed. Grade names are each maker's own and are not comparable across brands.
  3. 360Z Zero Turn Mower 2691651 has Side Discharge discharge; Z242F has Collect/Mulch/Side discharge discharge.
  4. 360Z Zero Turn Mower 2691651 holds 3 gal (11.4 L) of fuel; Z242F holds 3.5 gal (13.2 L) of fuel, a 0.5 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.
  5. 360Z Zero Turn Mower 2691651 cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 4.5 in (114 mm); Z242F cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 4 in (102 mm). The cut-height range is the shortest and tallest cut the deck offers. Most lawns are kept well inside it.
