Read articles →An owner-operator vlog that treats the LS MT357 as a working tool rather than a review subject, the video shows an 84-inch rear-discharge finish mower tackling a real five-acre field, then pivots to hauling lumber and filling gopher holes to illustrate the tractor's versatility. Practical observations include scalping risk with a 7-foot deck, hill limitations versus a zero-turn, and cab comfort. Best for buyers curious how a cab compact tractor handles everyday acreage maintenance.
An owner-operator channel documenting life on their own property, though the creator notes a partnership with LS Tractor for this video, so the tone toward the equipment leans favorable.
The cut quality is very good for a big open field, though probably not as good as a zero turn, and it did perfectly fine on this 5-acre field.
No, it is not going to be great on hills like up by the house or on the backside of the pond dam, so a zero turn is still used for trim mowing uneven ground.
It carried about 2,500 pounds of lumber from a sawmill and hauled topsoil in a bucket to fill seven gopher holes in the field.
If you are not paying attention, you can seriously bust an axle on the tractor, and animals like cows can break their ankles and legs in them.
