The fact that it has more power, and a deeper deck, with higher blade speed, makes a huge difference in speed. The heavier duty parts, and better air filter system etc, will greatly extend the service life. A few dealers showed me higher end residential units, that claimed to be "commercial Grade" , but when I looked into each brand, there was an actual commercial line, that was built much heavier, and that cost considerably more as a result. I liked the Club Cadet Pro Z line, and the Deere 900 line, and the Toro Pro 4000 series, but Deere gave us the best prices, and the old stock 2022 at $6500 below the 2024 price, clinched the deal. And of course Deere has an excellent network of dealers, and a great parts supply service.
