there is two ways to go… If i were you i’d go with a residential ZTR mower. They make commercial ones but those are built to withstand many yards a day rather than one a week…and those have a hefty price tag

The lawn service company I worked for last summer, the guy had a ztr rider, and I had a walkbehind with a sulkey and we could mow a 3 acre yard in 30 mins. (just mow, no trimming)  
the commecial ZTR riders are near 10 grand but they can do like 15 mph

Ugh, craftsman has gone so far downhill since the kmart merger. No way I’d buy a craftsman mower now, even if I got it 50% off.

If a current craftsman runs 5 years you’ll be lucky. Go look at them in the store. Tons of plastic where parts should be metal, and the parts that are metal are way undersized. Cost cutting to the extreme.

Contact Dave Wegman of Wegman’s Motor Works on Kenmore Ave. He’s a great guy and has a ton of new and used commerical mowers. Ive bought quite a few mowers off him and he could have been any better to deal with.
