John Deere Lawn Tractors consistently receive high review ratings for even, smooth cutting and ease of changing
attachments such as side discharge, bagging, and mulching attachments. The X304 from the John Deere Lawn Tractor
300 series was tested and compared to eight high end lawn tractors by Family Home & Garden (a German magazine)
and was the hands down winner. The same John Deere Lawn Tractor received top ratings by the Telegraph, a London
newspaper.
