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.
- Wright ZTS 61 FT730V — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 61-inch deck; gas powered
- John Deere Z920MZTrak Zero-Turn Mower — commercial: daily paid use and high acreage; 60-inch deck; gas powered
What’s different? The 4 differences that matter most, from the published figures.
- ZTS 61 FT730V holds 7.5 gal (28.4 L) of fuel; Z920MZTrak Zero-Turn Mower holds 11.5 gal (43.5 L) of fuel, a 4 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.
- ZTS 61 FT730V has a published top speed of 10 mph; Z920MZTrak Zero-Turn Mower has a published top speed of 12 mph, a 2 mph difference. Top speed is the maker's maximum in transport. Mowing speed is lower and depends on grass, terrain and the deck.
- ZTS 61 FT730V weighs 1,210 lbs (548.9 kg); Z920MZTrak Zero-Turn Mower weighs 1,313 lbs (595.6 kg), a 103 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What ZTS 61 FT730V's weight means for a trailer ›
- ZTS 61 FT730V has a 24 hp engine; Z920MZTrak Zero-Turn Mower has a 23.5 hp engine, a 0.5 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.
calculated figures and what isn’t comparable
Calculated by MowerFacts
- ZTS 61 FT730V works out to 4.9 acres/hour; Z920MZTrak Zero-Turn Mower works out to 5.8 acres/hour, a 0.9 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.
