Tim identifies specific likes, notably stronger power than his old John Deere 3046R on hills, and more intuitive cruise control, and names three concrete gripes: arm rest design, a steering glitch under heavy loader loads, and a slow-filling fuel filter. Most useful for buyers already considering the YT359C who want candid early impressions rather than a spec rundown.
A family lifestyle and compact-tractor channel with 260,000 subscribers; Tim presents as a hands-on owner, not a dealer or industry professional, though his enthusiasm for the Yanmar is evident throughout.
The YT359C never seems to know the mower is behind it, even on a hill where the 3046R pulled down badly and limited speed to about 2.5 to 3 mph.
Yes, the owner finds it more intuitive than the John Deere version, with simple set and resume functions, and both brakes disengage it.
The armrest does not fully flip up, there is a steering glitch under heavy loader loads in tight spots, and the fuel fill filter is very slow.
Yes, a filter in the fuel fill hole filters so slowly that filling up is difficult, estimated at about 1 gallon per minute or less.
