Buying guides25 hp & underKubota BX23S

Overview

A BX23S owner walks through his personal case for and against the Kubota mid-mount mower deck versus buying a separate zero turn, drawing on his own 38-acre homestead experience. He covers list prices for the 54- and 60-inch decks, implement swap time, traction advantages, cut quality, and hour accumulation concerns. No hands-on footage or spec deep-dive, this is a candid spoken pros-and-cons comparison best suited to first-time BX buyers weighing the bundled mower decision.

An owner-operator sharing firsthand impressions from their own hobby homestead, with no dealer affiliation, though the creator openly acknowledges limited zero-turn experience and potential resulting bias.
