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.

- ZXT 72 FXT00 has a 7 Gauge deck; HusqvarnaZ572XS has a Steel deck.
- ZXT 72 FXT00 holds 15.5 gal (58.7 L) of fuel; HusqvarnaZ572XS holds 12 gal (45.4 L) of fuel, a 3.5 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.
- ZXT 72 FXT00 weighs 1,551 lbs (703.5 kg); HusqvarnaZ572XS weighs 1,359 lbs (616.4 kg), a 192 lbs difference. Operating weight bears on trailer payload, ramps and soft turf. On its own it says nothing about build quality. What ZXT 72 FXT00's weight means for a trailer ›
- ZXT 72 FXT00 has a published top speed of 13 mph; HusqvarnaZ572XS has a published top speed of 12 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.
