Our verdict
Bad Boy MZ Magnum 54
The MZ Magnum is Bad Boy's answer for buyers who want a real fabricated deck at a budget price, and it delivers something rare in this bracket. Where most mowers near this money use flimsy stamped steel, the MZ Magnum has a 7-gauge fabricated welded deck and an all-steel tube frame, built alongside Bad Boy's commercial machines. A steering dampening system smooths out the twitchy feel budget zero-turns often have. The trade is the sealed EZT-2200 transaxles, which you replace rather than service, and a slow 6 mph top speed. Sold at Tractor Supply, it is easy to buy, and for a couple of acres on a budget it punches above its price.
