Great mower
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I bought this 6ft mower from Agri Supply in Greenville, NC. It was fully assembled, but the gearbox was a bit low on oil. It had some grease on the fittings but I greased everything again to make sure. I disassembled the PTO shaft and greased the fittings on each U-joint, both sections of the slip shaft, and the plastic bushings at each end of the yellow PTO cover. One of the wheels seems to have rough bearings and doesn't spin freely. Some grease helped it a bit, and I'll see how it feels after a few uses. The 6ft mower does not have a anti scalping roller in the center, but badly needs one if your yard is not flat. I scalped a section the grass in front of the house where it starts to slope to the ditch. I purchased a roller for the 7ft mower (part# 020052 - Item# 102408 - Front roller assembly for 7ft mower) and installed it. Check your PTO shaft clearance when you raise the mower all the way up if you install this roller. Mine is against the roller at full lift. I use the mower with a John Deere 855 compact tractor (24 engine hp, 19 PTO hp) and it works great. I was a bit concerned that it would bog down the engine since it has a hydro-static transmission and electric PTO clutch. You can't gradually engage the PTO like with a clutch, the electric operated clutch is either on or off. But it doesn't bother the engine at all, just rev it up and engage the PTO. The mower is actually pretty quiet while in operation, and does a good job of mowing. I purchased mulching blades for it, but the mulching kit with the covers was not available through Agri Supply. If the grass gets too high, the mower will leave clumps of grass behind. I probably need another counter weight or two in the front. I have 75 lbs right now, and it's not hard to get the front wheels off the ground if I start too quickly. I appreciate Agri Supply's customer service, I called before making the 1.5 hour drive to get the mower to make sure everything was in stock and they had it ready when I arrived. They also had the part number and website where I could order the mulching kit if I wanted it. I also like that the manual for the mower is on the same web page as the mower. I can print it out since the one that came in the storage tube attached to the mower was soaked.

Excellent mower

I have been using this mower since new in 2016. Excellent quality. I am rough on it. The Estate mower has been very strong against hits. All is well

Good value
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

Purchased this mower to replace a failing belly mower on a New Holland 1620. Shipping was quicker than expected and the unit arrived in good condition. It came greased and with oil in the gearbox ready to mow. Only issue was missing spacers and pin on one wheel, most likely during shipping. Called customer service the next day and replacements are on the way. The main reason I chose AGRI Supply was because of the positive customer service reviews, and based on my experiences from the order, delivery and my call to replace the parts, I made the right choice.

GREAT MOWER
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

Purchased the mower deck 2 weeks ago and it was delivered on time, undamaged with all parts delivered as promised. Oil was already serviced in the gearbox, grease fittings filled, etc., and ready to assemble drive shaft to tractor and mower gearbox. Had to make a 4-inch cut on the drive shaft because they give you extra length to accommodate all types of tractors. No problem. Adjusted the height of the wheels with supplied spacers, but replaced the existing pins with heavy duty cotter pin types so they wouldn't come off. Otherwise, perfect cutting machine, nice finishing job on lawn. I cut 4 acres in about two hours. Runs smoothly and not a lot of noise. Good price for such a heavy duty, quality mower. I noticed that replacement parts are reasonably priced. Recommend this as a replacement mower which is what I did for a 5 ft. Woods mower. Customer service representative Susan was terrific on the phone answering any questions.

I love this mower
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

This mower is very quiet and easy to pull. I am pulling the 6ft model behind a John Deere 855, 24 hp engine, 19 hp PTO tractor. I have my wheels set narrow so it sticks out a good bit from my wheel width. You have to be careful not to catch it on anything and so far I haven't. It will mow as close as you dare. The grass is just starting to grow good so I haven't pulled it through anything thick yet but it doesn't seem to load my PTO at all when I engage it so I don't suspect any problems. I have pulled it through some overgrown Bahia grass but I think early season is less thick. The mower and tractor slowed or displayed any lagging. I did have to go over that twice to get a decent cut but it was about 3 ft high before I started.

Agmate 6' Finishing Mower
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I have been looking for a finishing mower for some time. Pricing on some of the more well known mowers was outlandish. I picked this mower up from Florence, and in less than an hour of getting it home, I was cutting grass. I have been mowing for a couple of weeks with no issues. The mower does not like tall heavy Bahia Grass, but nothing does....not even a bush hog. Well pleased with this purchase!!!

Great Product & Great Service
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I bought this mower deck to help cutt our 3.5 acres in one day. The Mrs & I would use two riders. Hooked it up to my MF-240 and at a low speed knocked out the job in 1 1/2 hours. Everything was assembled when I picked it up. Cuts great. I would suggest replacing the pins for the wheels with bolts as others mentioned. Everyone at the store was very helpful and friendly. The wife loves the way it cuts the lawn. Thanks!!!!!

Great mower. Awesome customer service
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I just bought and received the 6ft finishing mower. I used it this weekend to mow 4.5 acres of overgrown damp grass. The mower performed great. I pulled it behind a JD 3032E and had no problems. What really impressed me though was the customer service. When I received the mower it was missing a lynch pin and a grease fitting on two different wheel assemblies. No big deal to me, I had spares at the house anyway. Well I emailed customer service to let them know I was very happy with the mower and I mentioned it was missing the lynch pin and grease fitting when it came off the truck. No big deal, these things happen with large freight shipments. The next day I get an email from customer service saying they have shipped me the missing parts and apologized for the inconvenience. WOW....I was blown away. Probably not 2 bucks worth of parts and it probably cost them more than that to ship it to me. I will buy from these folks again.

Mower Arrived Today
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I was searching for a rear discharge mower when I found this one. The price is far better than any thing else I found even considering $200 in freight. So I read reviews and heard how Agri Supply stood behind their product and customers. So I bought it, I was told 3 day delivery and 3 days later I have it. The crating was all broken up when I received it, at the same time the mower was just fine. The mower was greased and had oil in the gear box. I backed in my New Holland Tractor and hooked her up and set out to mow 4 acres that was over grown due to the non stop rain. I went slower than normal considering the height & moisture in the grass and it handled it very well. I was done in just over two hours. This mower is a smooth, well balanced deck that just purrs. It made as well as the big names for a lot less money. Do yourself a favor and consider one of these.

Integrity
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

Integrity and Self Respect- You either have it or you don't, but for a corporation, integrity has to be a personal commitment from the top. As a company grows, integrity has to be there from the beginning so that new employees see it as a core value. Integrity and Customer Service, in the truest sense, are practiced, not merely pretty words in corporate mottos and advertising. Everybody screws up occasionally, but it is what happens aftewards that brings core values into application. Agri Supply has integrity! They made a big, costly mistake, and owned up to it immediately. They addressed the issue, corrected the problem, and management followed through with constant contact until it was completely resolved. They have my business and I am 3000 miles from their nearest store. Integrity- is that rare! Maury Clark

Epitome of customer service.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I use the mower to cut around and in a 6 acre pecan orchard. It is not a great mower, it's just OK, but the price makes it a fair deal. I purchased the 7ft. Agri-Mate first and had several problems which couldn't be fixed because of changes the manufacturer had made. Because a newer 7ft wasn't available I excepted the 6" with refund for the difference. The reason I gave it 5 stars instead of 4 or 3 is due to the outstanding customer service. I have been doing business with Agri Supply for several years and I can honestly say that I have never experienced better customer service than I have from Agri Supply. Rachel Williams and her crew at the Valdosta, GA store did everything possible to make the situation right.Thanks Ahri Supply.

Nice mower for the money
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

I bought this mower to take the pressure off my JD 325 lawn tractor. I mow about three-four acres per week. This mower is on my JD 3032 tractor. The mower was ready to go to work as soon as I attached it and adjusted the mowing height. Mowing Bahia I must go slow but does a good job. Mowing other grasses it does fine. Is as good as the caroni brand and a lot cheaper than Deere.

nice mower
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars

Mower arrived well packed in great condition. I found the mower to be prepped and ready to cut when I uncrated it. Already greased and the gearbox full of oil! Did not have to do a single thing other than hook up and mow. It works great and is perfect power match for my new Massey Ferguson 1533. I always am pleased with Agri Supply.

Follow on review from my November 8 review; as i stated the only issue i had was some chunks of rubber missing from the wheels after a season of mowing. i just recieved 4 new and improved replacement wheels from ASC. you can not beat the customer service provided by ASC. Today it is hard to find a company that will stand behind the product they sell. i am rating this product and purchase 5 stars due to the excellent service.

great buy, great service
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars

I bought a 4 foot model a year ago and ,like mentioned in other reviews the pins popped off and I had to hunt for my tire and height sleeves , I replaced the pins with grade 8 bolts and lock nuts to solve that problem. If you keep your grass cut properly , this mower will do the job nicely. Don't let your grass get too high for any finishing mower ! Keep oil in the gear box and apply grease to the bearing often. My local Agri supply team in Florence saw my review of my 4 foot model, where I mentioned I was going to buy a 6 foot model for my father in laws 80th birthday this mothers day weekend and they contacted me and made arrangements to have one in stock for me. Great American service ! Thanks Agri south , Florence team, and yes My father in law is thrilled with his new finishing mower....

It works
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars

I've had it for a couple of months and no problems. Cuts level. It does, however, sit really close to my Ford 640 tractor so if I lift the mower very far off the ground it actually hits the rear tractor tires.
