Our verdict
Troy-Bilt Mustang Z54
The Mustang Z54 steps up from the Z50 with a wider deck and more engine, and for a big suburban lawn it covers the basics without much fuss. A 24 HP Kohler twin has the power for a 54-inch cut, the fully welded tubular frame carries a limited lifetime warranty, and the triple-blade deck runs anti-scalp wheels and a nose roller to protect the turf. The seat is adjustable and comfortable enough. What keeps the price down is a stamped steel deck and sealed EZT transaxles you replace rather than service, so this is a homeowner machine rather than an acreage workhorse. For a flat lot of two or three acres on a real budget, it does the job.
