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’s different? The 5 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- Stander X 52 FX730E uses a Kawasaki engine; Walker Model T23 uses a Rehlko 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.
- Stander X 52 FX730E holds 8 gal (30.3 L) of fuel; Walker Model T23 holds 4.7 gal (17.8 L) of fuel, a 3.3 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.
- Stander X 52 FX730E has a published top speed of 9.5 mph; Walker Model T23 has a published top speed of 6.5 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.
- Stander X 52 FX730E cuts from 1.5 in (38 mm) to 5.5 in (140 mm); Walker Model T23 cuts from 1 in (25 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.
- Stander X 52 FX730E weighs 920 lbs (417.3 kg); Walker Model T23 weighs 820 lbs (371.9 kg), a 100 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What Stander X 52 FX730E's weight means for a trailer ›
