The steering wheel plus articulating rear wheels means zero learning curve. Feels natural from minute one, unlike traditional lever zero turns.

Real Cub Cadet homeowner premium. Some cost cuts vs commercial but the important features work.
Lawn Works USA –
Thanks for the honest review – we appreciate the feedback!
Phil –
Right sized for medium-large suburban lots. Some finish isn’t commercial-grade but that’s appropriate for the tier.
Lawn Works USA –
Appreciate you taking the time. We’ll pass the suggestions along.

The Kohler 7000 series has been reliable and quiet. Plenty of power for the deck size.

Full season of weekly mowing and no issues. The SynchroSteer plus Kohler combination is a smart Cub Cadet product.

Real premium homeowner ZT at fair pricing. Some pricing considerations at the top of the Ultima line.
Tina –
1.5-2.5 acre suburban lots are right sized for the 50 inch deck. The ZTS2 50 fits our property scale perfectly.
Bill –
Full season and the Kohler has been bulletproof. Same engine used across many premium homeowner mowers.
Lawn Works USA –
Thank you for the review – glad it’s working well overall.
Ace –
Real Cub Cadet quality throughout. The ZTS2 is a premium homeowner ZT that feels the part.
Chuck –
2-3 acre suburban lots benefit from the ZTS2’s SynchroSteer plus commercial-grade features.

Thanks for choosing Cub Cadet! Reach out anytime you need support or parts.
Franklin –
The SynchroSteer articulating rear wheels handle hills dramatically better than traditional zero turns. If your property has grade this matters.
Sandy –
My wife wouldn’t touch our old lever zero turn. The Ultima ZTS she rides comfortably. SynchroSteer eliminates the lever intimidation.
Tom –
2 acre lot with mature landscaping. The 50 inch deck maneuvers around obstacles well while cutting efficiently.
Randy –
The SynchroSteer is excellent. Larger decks are heavier and affect balance slightly. Minor trade-off for the productivity.
Duane –
Zero learning curve with the steering wheel. Went from push mower to ZTS2 in one afternoon.
Alvin –
The ZTS2 SynchroSteer is excellent. Cub Cadet dealer support could be better – had a warranty question that took weeks.
Lawn Works USA –
Sorry the experience wasn’t perfect. Please give our support line a call.
Reid –
Real premium features but pricing is at the top of homeowner ZT market. Consider commercial Pro Z if daily use.
Lawn Works USA –
Thank you for the feedback – we’d like the chance to address this directly.
Doug –
The ZTS2 is Cub Cadet’s step-up homeowner ZT. Feels closer to commercial quality than the entry Ultima line.
Vern –
The fabricated deck plus SynchroSteer precision leaves a manicured finish. Better cut consistency than lever ZTs I’ve operated.
