The Best Tractors For 2012 – My Reviews
Which Riding Lawn Mower Is Right For You? My Reviews
Welcome! Here is a list of the reviews that I have completed for 2012.
Scroll down and click on the (Review) of the product to go to my review.
Some of the manufactures do not announce their new models until May so keep coming back here. Sign up for the emails and I’ll send them to you as I finish them. I will update this page as I complete each review. You can still view the 2011 list here for clearance tractors: 2011 Reviews
My goal is not to tell you which tractor is best, but to help you decide which tractor is best for you! I know the tractors from all the manufactures and you can use my expertise to help you select the best tractor for your lawn, use, and price range. If you want to “drive green” I can help you find the best Deere for you or if you want the best value for your unique lawn I can help you with that. There are a few dud’s again this year and I’ll point them out!

I am going to use a standardized layout this year. It will allow you to easily see the best features for you. This new layout is similar to the layout at consumersearch.com which many of you are already familiar with.
I am dropping Kmart as a place to buy tractors this year but adding NEXTAG. NEXTAG is a “smart site” that finds the best prices on the items you want. I recommend you use the link to find the best prices on a daily basis for Cub Cadet, Simplicity, Toro and Yard Machines Brands.
If you have a question or comment about a tractor please use the form at the bottom of the page the review is on. Please tell me where you live, lawn size and type of grass. If you have a general question use the form at the bottom of this page. I am familiar with most of the tractors on the market so if you don’t see a review for the new one you are interested in…just ask.
It’s not which mower I think is the best, it’s which mower is best for you!
I will add my Best Buy Awards and CR Best Buys in May
