I purchased a Husqvarna 46 cut Lawnmower model #YTH21K46 on 3-12-12. Used it once and the second time I started it, gas was gushing out of the muffler. I took it back on 3-16-12 and got the same model. I used it once. The second time I used it, cut for 25 minutes and it shut off. It had the same problem, gas coming out muffler and filter compartment. The first mower failed with 1.5 hours on the engine. The second mower failed with 1.7 hours on the engine. My yard size is 1.5 acres.

You name it. Tractor wont start with new battery. Wont stay running for more than half hour. Manufacturer says dont start off a vehicle but had no choice - only way to mow grass. Their website is useless and not surprised they get such a low consumer satisfaction rate. Dont buy Husqvarna.

Purchase new Husqvarna RZ 4216 four weeks ago. Blade belt started coming off when disengage belt. Took it back to dealer and he states that there is a new blade engage system now. It is ordered (8-24-13). Will advise what happens.

I purchased a Husqvarna AWD675 push lawn mower on 03/23/14 from Lowe’s and it started on the first pull after adding oil and gas. The mower worked fine for the first five months but it will not crank now, 09/15/14. I called the customer service number in the Husqvarna manual and I was placed on hold for approximately 30 minutes. The customer service representative informed me that this problem should be under warranty and she gave me the information of an authorized repair shop that honors Husqvarna warranties. I took the mower to the authorized repair shop and the repairman told me that the carburetor needs cleaning and this is not under warranty. The air filter still looks new and my yard is about 1/3 of an acre and I never let my grass get very high so the mower has not had an extraordinary strain on the engine. The repairman told me that it will cost approximately $60 to clean the carburetor. I am very displeased with this mower and I will never buy another Husqvarna product; I had a Yard Machine brand mower before this one that lasted 11 years.

Purchased the 336fr brush cutter for $569. Used it one time for 30 minutes and engine suddenly locked up. Repair tech told me that though there is a proper fuel mixture in tank, he sees none inside. As a result, Husqvarna refuses to honor the warranty. I guess somewhere between the fuel tank and the engine the oil disappeared?! Actually, company is accusing me of running it without oil and then adding oil to fuel tank to cover up my mistake... Incredible!! I would not recommend this company to anyone... Hoping no one else out there with same experience.

This mower never starts after storage. Ive tried to get assistance from Husqvarna but they are out to lunch. Ive had over 14 mowers and this is the first one with this problem. Ive used the mower less than 6 hours, terrible product. It is the LC 121 with B&S 163cc engine.

Mower (Poulan Pro front wheel drive) arrived new in box. The front wheel drive wouldn’t engage and the height adjustment kept dropping down. After 1 hour of use the machine completely seized up. Husqvarna refused to honor the warranty stating severe abuse of machine. Screws on the undercarriage became loose and fell off causing it to hit against the blade. Amazon has stopped selling this model due to the same complaints and issues. I tried posting a review on their website and they took it down stating irrelevant content. That’s why their rating seem high when in fact their product is rated very low and many people have complained about the same issues. Stay away!!!

Ever since Ive had this Husqvarna 55C21HV mower the left rear wheel has failed to drive more often than not. Dealer failed to fix problem so being a field engineer for over 40 years I took it upon myself to clean and deburr the pawl assy and all associated parts. This helped slightly. I then e-mailed the USA distributor and never got a response. The only good thing in this mower is the Honda engine which runs flawlessly like all the other Honda engines I have had.

I bought HU700F lawn mover from Lowes in August 2014 and within a year its hard starting. I took it to their local dealer and after work he charged me saying its not under warranty and I need to call Honda as engine is from Honda. This is a shocking news. I need to call two different companies for warranty. Thankfully they dont make cars, otherwise they will ask me to call over 100 vendors who supply parts to car companies. This is totally not acceptable and I feel its cheating as they should clearly advertise about two different warranties. I think this company as well as their products are substandard.

I bought a new 130BT backpack blower in June of 2011, used it across the summer and into the fall. In late fall, I noticed that it was not developing power as it should. I set it up for the winter and took it to Lowes in the spring of this year to have it sent off and repaired. After about a month, I received a call from the authorized service center telling me that the repairs were not covered under warranty. Caller said that there was excessive moisture in gas, therefore, diluting the oil in the mixture, and scouring the cylinder walls and trashing the carb. I used the Husky oil purchased at Lowes and followed instructions on type of gas and mixing. I mean, seriously, I have only been mixing 2-cycle oil for 25 years, and have never had a problem in the past. I have been told that gasoline with ethanol will cause a problem such as this, as the ethanol will evaporate leaving excessive moisture in the gasoline. If this is the case, why does Husky not publish this in their 2-cycle manuals so consumers will buy ethanol free? I told the caller to take the blower out back and toss it as far as they could, and I would go buy an Echo blower to replace it. I went by Lowes today to pick up the thing, as they would not even dispose of it as I asked.

Not going to write a long and very boring POOR ME letter here. I owned a Husqvarna zero turn mower for over 11 years. I decided it was time to buy a new one. BIG mistake. I paid $3.500 and it arrived with a broken deck. But since they took away my brand new zero turn mower, they will not tell me when I can have it back. It seems that after two weeks they might consider just giving me a new one since that is what I paid for. I have tried and tried and tried to go through channels but they are 100% useless. I will leave you with one message: DO NOT BUY a Husqvarna Zero Turn mower. You will (for sure) regret it right away.

My mower RZ4623 with extended warranty. The welds on the mower deck broke, mower 15 months old. Would not cover under warranty. I was told that they said theyre all breaking because mower was transported on a trailer???????? I picked it up with a trailer, nothing was said about it. The service center picked it up with a trailer, brought it back with a trailer. Apparently most of this model has the same problem. Its a factory defect and they wont own up to it.This mower is no good, their warranty is no good, and their reputation is no longer good. It is not hard to see this product should be recalled. Besides that, the mower deck rattles like crazy, belt flops around, and comes off. There was no grease in anything. Had to grease all before using. Seat is already cracking apart, loose bolts. I am TOTALLY disappointed in this mower. Money I spent on warranty was a waste. Money spent on the mower was a waste. They did say my ignition switch was covered under warranty (Oh yeah, that is going bad too). STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS PRODUCT AND COMPANY OR YOULL GET SCREWED. You have been warned. They are no longer the company of good products it used to be. VERY ANGRY. WOULD NEVER BUY FROM THEM AGAIN. If Lowes was smart, they would stop selling them. It is making them look bad too.

I bought the 55R21HVD mower because my daughter wanted to make money cutting the lawn, and my Honda that I am using again is not self-propelled. The Honda is 18 years old and has only been in the shop for routine maintenance. My daughter was complaining about how hard it was to use the mower. The self-propelled would not disengage when pulling the mower backwards. You have to lift the rear wheels off the ground, engage, and then disengage the drive unit to get the system to release. The knobs fell off; the clipping bag falls off. The wheel height will not stay in place so the deck drops down and scalps the grass. It was still under warranty so I took it 30 miles down the road to get it repaired, and the first time she used it nothing had been fixed. They didnt replace the missing knobs. Since then, the gas leaks someplace; the rear axle height shaft broke so when I welded it, I saw the poor quality of the welds someone had put on. The air filter case is broken; more parts have fallen off the bag, and this is the engine of all the powered equipment I own that I have to prime in the spring to get running. It has an auto choke system that doesnt work as well. The part that really upsets me is that you cannot talk with anyone who makes more than minimum wage. Husqvarna has no customer service. I have never seen anything so poorly designed. Do they want me to buy parts that are guaranteed to fail over and over? This is by far the work money I have ever spent. I wouldnt want it on my conscience if someone got hurt using a product that looks like it is made to fail.

I love Husqvarna. I work at a dealership. Half the complaints on here are motors or trannies that husky doesnt build or have parts for. You should be yelling at the tranny company or motor company about the faults. The 235-240 chainsaws are poulan built. Dont buy them. Get a 435. Way better! I have a 15 year old husky chainsaw and a 15 year old husky tractor, as well as a 20 year old trimmer.

I was looking for a Chainsaw for my Wife. I choose Husqvarna. I found a 240 series 38.2 2 stroke motor. It was light, looked to be user friendly and really nice to look at. Before trying to start it I read the manual, gassed and oiled it up. I went to pull start it and it acted like the motor was locked up. I checked the chain break and it was off. We had a family emergency and I was not able to look at it for several weeks. I tried again to start it and it was so hard to pull. I then called the company called Innovations and told them my problem. They looked me up in their computer and found me. They did at that time let me know that it was not under warranty! I have only owned it for a few months I said, she told it has a 90 day warranty! I missed it on the paperwork that was sent with the saw. I then was stuck either taking it to the shop in Town or work on it myself. First thing on this saw I noticed three adjustment holes on the left side of the plastic cover. Husqvarna told me that the carb cannot be adjusted by the consumer and that I need a special tool that refuse to sell me! I then learned that it can be adjusted with a Bic pen with the ink inners removed. Armed with my pen and tearing this thing apart so I can get it freed up I finally got this thing to run and idle! This saw just ran rough and when I turned it off it was back to hard to pull! After working on freeing this thing up again, I got it to start and run. Well it stopped on its own and would not restart! After troubled shooting this thing again, I found a fouled Champion plug! I drove over to John Deere to buy a new plug. After I bought and paid for the plug I walked over to the saws. I found a Sthil saw on sale for almost the same price as the Husqvarna. So I bought it! The sales person that I have dealt with for years stated that that Husqvarna is not a Husqvarna, its a Sears Chainsaw!... Huh? I would if been better to buy one at Harbor Freight! This my experience with the Husqvarna 240 38.2 14 inch bar saw. The only thing I can say is if I would of known what I found out the hard way I would say to anyone that comes in contact with this saw is... RUN FORREST RUN!

I purchased a 122c weed trimmer midway through the last summer season. I decided on this unit, because it seemed like it was made for much more than would be needed for my yard. I wanted something that was going to last. I even bought the overpriced Husqvarna canned fuel mixture. I didnt want any problems. The unit stopped working in August of this year. My guess is that the 122c was used 20 times. I emailed Husqvarna with no response. We had our yard equipment tuned up this fall. The tech opened the 122c up, cleaned it out. He didnt see anything out of the ordinary. He spent a half hour (and $30 of my money) on the unit with no success. I will not ever again buy a piece of equipment manufactured by this company. Caveat Emptor.

Last year, it started... (what looks like oil leaking out of the exhaust-muffler) and it had dripped onto my concrete floor. It had smoked at times when engaging the blades - when the load was put on the engine. I called Lowes Advantage and filed a work order. They had a company that they use in Virginia to check it out. When I got it back, I read the work order and what was done. They did a service tune up on it. They changed the spark plugs, changed the oil and filter, and changed the air filter. Their paperwork and one of their employees said that they also sharpened the blades and detailed (cleaned up the mower). But, they didnt sharpen the blades or detail (clean the mower). The blades hadnt been sharpened and there was still oil residue on the muffler and chassis area. They said that I would have to pay for it. I called the Lowes manager and complained. I clearly said that I dont think its been fixed, that there seems to be an engine problem with the rings or the block. He said he would make a note of it and I didnt have to pay anything. Well, I didnt know what to do. What could I do?... Last week I mowed with it for about the fifth time since I had this done... Still the same oil looking leak as before. Yep, I think Ive been right the whole time, wasnt fixed... I just called 7-31-14 to complain again to Lowes Advantage. Theyre setting up someone to check it out again. I dont know if its the same company or not. I asked the person filing the phone complaint if theyve had similar complaints and she said yes. By the way, I bought two Husqvarnas at the same time from Lowes. And I bought extended warranties with each. The other one has been used the most though. But, now its starting to drip too. And all of the riding mowers that Ive bought new came from Lowes. An 18 HP 42 Murray Yard Machines MTD back in 1997. It was still mowing fine when I bought a 24 HP 50 Cub Cadet in 2004. Both were still mowing/running fine, but I sold them when I bought the two new Husqvarnas in 2012. Both have the Kohler Engines. Both 26 HP 54 cut...Since I bought them, Ive noticed that theyre putting Briggs Engines on them now... Have they had problems with the Kohler Engines? I paid good money for each... $2200.00-ish for the standard style riding mower and $2600.00-ish for the zero turn style riding mower... plus the warranties for each... And, when I first complained, I went to the Lowes store in person. No one really wanted to help me or they couldnt. They said that I would have to call the phone number on the mower... Well, it was the Lowes Advantage number. Couldnt they have helped me in the store, or called for me, or set up my complaint there in the store? I dont want to get stuck with a high dollar mower that isnt going to give me the service that I paid for... Sorry. Thanks, please advise... Im not going to check the attorney box below for me to be contacted yet. I will see if we can make this right first... Please help.

I bought a 48 in. Husqvarna last year. When they got it off the truck it did not work. Had to get new battery and 1 tire was flat. About 2 months later the mower will not go into reverse. They fixed that. We tried to mow and the paddle broke off. Now 3 spindles broke, warranty would not cover. I paid out of pocket. We get it back. I now part of my yard and the spindle in making a lot of noise and not working correctly. This is such bull, you pay so much and you get crap. I now cant mow again. Something needs to happen.

We are a dealer for Briggs, Kohler, Mtd, Speeco, Honda, Dolmar, Echo & Grasshopper. When I inquired to Husqvarna about being a dealer, they sent their representative to our facility. He looked it over & said, Well, its not conducive to the facility that we want to see. The funny thing is about twenty miles away, he signs up an Amish guy with a much smaller showroom than we have & gives him a dealership. Whats right about that? I guess I didnt realize that Husqvarna discriminates who can be a dealer & who cannot depending on your heritage.

I brought a zero turn mower and the second time I mowed my yard a spring broke a pulley broke and the deck belt was ruined. I took it to the dealer and it took 2 and 1/2 months to get it back. I had to pay for all the parts and the labor. I will not recommend this product.

Until now really liked Husqvarna products but had problem with top line leaf blower. It just stopped working. Took to a husqvarna repair shop and they said to fix it probably would cost as much as a new one. Only had for 3 years and did not use hard at all. So I called Husqvarna and they will not stand behind their product. No ifs, ands or buts. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER HUSQVARNA PRODUCT. Their business is horrible. Dont buy Husqvarna products. Not worth it.

Within a year of purchase, Husqvarna XP545 chainsaw piston froze. Dealer took first peak at it, said it was not enough oil in the fuel mixture and Husqvarna would not cover it under warranty. Odd, since the gas was brand new and I used the oil that I purchased from the dealer AND I have used this fuel mixture on a Stihl chainsaw with no issues. The dealer was good enough to contact Husqvarna customer support while I was in the store. I expected that I could speak to the representative, but I guess I was not a privileged customer and was denied to speak to them directly. The dealer was asked to send pictures. Husqvarna reviewed the pictures and said it was TOO much oil in the mixture. Seems odd that two independent qualified parties came up with completely different root cause of the issue. In any case, my claim with Husqvarna was denied and their warranty will not cover a defect on their end. They are using the excuse to say the gas was bad. Having power equipment for over 25 years, this statement is a joke as my 20 year old Craftsman Weedwacker that I leave old and stale gas in over the winter actually still starts and works fine. Husqvarna really needs to take accountability for their lack in quality and professionalism. A lot of money for a piece of crap engineering.

I have been very disappointed in the all wheel drive mower. I have a steep hill to mow and for over 25 years I have used Honda self propelled mowers without a problem pulling the hill. My Honda was in the shop and I needed a mower so I purchased the all wheel drive model - thinking it would work better on my hill. I used it three or four times and the mower stopped pulling, even on level ground. I took it back to dealer and it was repaired. Unfortunately, after it was repaired the same issue developed. The mower would not pull, even on level ground. Back to dealer for repair again.On its best day, this mower has not pulled as well as my Honda. I have two Husqvarna Rancher chainsaws and other Husqvarna products that I am very pleased with. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend an AWD all wheel drive mower. Based on other reviews, I am not the only person having issues with this model. I would hope that Husqvarna would research the issue I, and others are having, and provide a solution. I have no issue with the cranking or bagging with this unit. I do have an issue in having to push a self propelled mower on level ground.

This is the WORST garden tractor I have ever owned, period. Mine had 3 hours on it when, on a flat grass field, the Weldment Front Deck Suspension Husqvarna part # 574822501 separated from deck and started tearing (ploughing) the grass, while it was badly bent as the result of going backwards for just a couple feet. I stopped operating and removed the Weldment Front Deck Suspension. It costs $61 to $100 to replace... but Im bringing it to the dealer as I suspect my garden tractor could be a LEMON, because of the following additional problems:As mentioned before, the fabricated deck is very heavy and thus the tractor consumes a lot of gasoline and is hard to drive. This tractors deck shaves the soil on every small bump instead of adjusting and cutting the grass properly. No matter how high or low the deck is raised/lowered, it just does not work right. The deck goes straight on a slight slope and cuts the grass unevenly. Steering wheel is a joke and the covering on it slides down preventing me from concentrating on what I should be doing, which is mowing the grass! No... I must watch the steering wheel and the cover on it keeps on sliding down! Plus the steering wheel is not exactly round and is hard to turn.The entire tractor is hard to handle because it is too heavy for the engine and too awkward made and it gulps gasoline by a bucket! Prepare a lot of gasoline to mow your field with this one! The left (clutch) pedal is jerking already while idling. Something is wrong. I dont know what. The battery could not handle the starting and died. Took too long to start it and so I bought a new batter already!This is a major one - while mowing grass on a flat and level field (had 3 hours on it) the Weldment Front Deck Suspension Husqvarna part # 574822501 separated from deck and started ploughing or tearing the grass, while it was badly bent. I stopped operating immediately when I noticed that and removed the Weldment Front Deck Suspension. It costs $61 to $100 to replace... but Im bringing it to the dealer as I suspect my garden tractor could be a LEMON. My first one GT52XLS had to be returned as it was spitting lots of oil and the engine kept dying. I had quite an effort (struggle) trying to get a replacement! Now this is my second one, again multiple problems!Hard to start when cold. Much harder than my older, smaller Husqvarna. I overpaid for it by at least $250. Cost wise this product is unsatisfactory. Rearing this tractor is a joke, because the deck grass shoot protector is only made to go drive forward. When you drive backwards, the black rubber shoot protector keeps on jumping up and down like crazy unless you bend over and hold it up with a hand risking getting stones into your face. The whole tractor is awkward to drive and handles rather like a stump. And did I mention the consumption of gasoline on it is through the roof! No wonder it got a 5 gallon tank!The deck lift has weird and confusing numbering on it and is hard to operate. It gets stuck and I cant lower it or raise it to the max. It is just plain weird. And this is a new tractor with 3 hours on it! One of the wheels on the tractor is wobbling and it feels like it is going to fall off soon! The rear push or drive wire is so thin and looks so out of place with this rather large garden tractor. Why not designs something that looks and feels good? The entire thing wants to go straight when I turn. The deck drives it straight and down into the ground. It feels really weird operating this tractor, as if I was driving a stump and the steering wheel feels like it is badly dented and is wrapped with some soft material that prevents me from mowing the grass properly!This is a COMPLETE FAILURE of a product and I demand my money back or another product of my choice. HUSQVARNA refuses to replace it with a new one either. They say it is my fault that the weldment suspension separated from a deck. Yes! My fault for mowing grass with it! I should have kept it in the garage instead! Husqvarna told me to bring it to the dealership for repairs. How can you repair a lemon or something that was badly designed and made? This tractor is PURE TROUBLE! No wonder there are no reviews on it! People are probably returning these in droves!Buy cheaper, smaller ones with stamped decks. You will be wasting your money, time and health buying this one! I would avoid Husqvarna products. Buy Japanese or whatever. One good thing so far - the engine seems to be quieter. It is a Japanese engine after all. Shame on the Japanese for allowing to use their engine on this POS.Conclusion - no more Husqvarna products for me. I will try with Kubota or some other. When I had a Volvo and Saab, I had many problems with them and the design was so ugly. Sorry, but no more Swedish products anymore for me either. And in general, I stopped consuming whatsoever, cut my spending on food and cut other bills, only keep spending on my hobby. Im tired of increasingly crappy products and especially the Planned Obsolescence thats being widely practiced by todays corporations.

Bought a mower from Lowes just around 3 years ago. Have had problems with it since the first time I mowed. Husqvarna will not back my warranty. The mower was dropped off at Lowe’s for a repair of deck issues 2 weeks short of warranty deadline. The subcontractor keep my mower for 2 months and submitted to Husqvarna numerous times for repairs unfortunately the transmission was bad. Now they say it’s out of warranty and it will cost more than it’s worth. So since it’s not fixable according to my warranty it should be replaced at no cost. But now they refuse and I’ve had to pick up a piece of junk for a yard ornament. DO NOT BUY HUSQVARNA!

Husqvarna 455 Rancher Chainsaw - The chainsaw is well built and reliable until it begins to leak bar oil. Husqvarna knows that this problem is very widely reported by most model 455 owners. The part fails after about 40 to 60 hours of use. The fix is replacing the oil feed hose with a new style (correctly manufactured) hose (part 158551400(1)). The part costs $2.95. The labor costs $53.00. The repair is covered by the 2-year warranty or the pay extra extended warranty. Husqvarna notified its dealers about this manufacturing defect, shhhh, but did not notify registered chainsaw owners. Husqvarna will not do the right thing and issue a general and advertised recall. Memo to Husqvarna--do you see all (hundreds) of 1-star ratings on this website? It is a prescription for laying off many of your workers. Your quality and customer service ratings have plummeted lower than even Black and Decker. Do the right thing, issue a recall and free repair when it is Husqvarnas fault.

Ive had my Husqvarna YTH 24V48LS for about three years. I have never have been able to get the deck to mow level. Purchased replacement blades from local Dealer only to find out that the parts book listed the wrong ones. The final straw was when the adapter between the steering wheel and the steering column wore out. I found the design to be a plastic adapter mounted to the steel column. No wonder it wore out! Awful design. Replacement was $20 for what looks like a $2 piece which I refuse to do. Come spring Ill go back to Craftsman.

I purchased a Husqvarna MZ5424 last year and it keeps breaking mower deck mandrels (the bearing housing that the shaft for the blades goes thrown). I have broken 5 of these, and now I am told that the part is on BACK ORDER. I thought I was buying a good quality machine; instead, I find that I purchased a wimpy pos that cant even mow a yard without breaking, never mind a field or something heavier. My antique John Deer blows this thing away as far as reliability.

A year after I had my Sears 26/54 it also would not drive uphills but was OK straight ground. The issue is a bad main drive belt-it shows no sign of wear but either stretches some or gets slick. Changed belt problem fixed. As for toe out all Sears and Husqvarna have some of this issue and nothing seems to be out of spec or bent.Fix is to set right wheel straight ahead go to left drag link and cut it about in the center. Now move left wheel to straight position matching the right wheel straight forward position. Then go down to left drag link and overlap both ends. Mark the excess length then cut off. Get a steel angle iron or scrap put it under both cut sections. Clamp with vice grips on angle bracket and each end of link. Have angle bracket welded to both ends of link and Voila. Away you go after replacement. Be careful. Weld will be hot. Saw this done to an older Deere and said I have the same problem on a tight turn mower should work and it does.

Paid 2000.00 to purchase brand new 2016 Husqvarna YTA24v48 with V-Twin Intek. Transmission is sketchy at best and after 30 hours and one oil/filter change cheap plastic carburetor started causing severe idle fluctuation to the point it would hardly run. Shortly afterwards, governor flew apart inside engine. Paid another 500.00 to have governor and carburetor replaced cause Husqvarna and Briggs & Stratton wouldnt warranty their product. Overall, mower and engine are so cheaply made that now Im afraid to even use it without worrying whats going to break next. Extremely dissatisfied and regret this expensive purchase of junk. I will never purchase either product nor will I ever recommend these products.

I bought a Husqvarna motor bike that was sold with an RWC but it has leaked oil 4 times. I paid $10600 for this motor bike and I am far from happy. I spoke to dealers and a rep about it and the problem is still there after 4 times at a shop. It is a hazard to ride. I want my money back.

I purchased a brand new Husqvarna MZT 61. When I got it home, I got used to the controls for about 10 minutes and started to cut. The mower was cutting nicely and then abruptly the blades disengaged and smoke was coming from under and behind. The clutch completely failed. The dealer had a loaner for me to use. Not sure how often this happens but very inconvenient and trust is shot. Waiting for the part. Should I demand a new mower? Has anyone else had the same problem? What was the outcome? Hopefully not years of more problems.

Purchased two brand new push mowers from Lowes, both have been terrible and one just died. We had purchased the extended warranty yet like everyone else; they blame us for it breaking. Terrible product and terrible warranty. I will no longer purchase from Lowes or a Husqvarna product.

I am sorry for all the troubles folks have had with Husqvarna power equipment that have expressed their disappointment here. However, I feel that I must tell all of you that I own several units of Husqvarna power equipment (chainsaws and mowers) that have operated flawlessly for many years. I am not the only one who is happy with their Husky either. My equipment has been properly maintained by authorized service centers and myself as per the maintenance schedule in the owners manual. I use the recommended additives, fuels, oils, grease and filters for maintenance. They were bought from authorized dealer/repair centers that properly assembled the equipment from the beginning, not Lowes employees that I doubt have any training or very little at best on proper assembly (not the employees fault). A cheaper price is not always a better buy my friends! As for the axle and engine troubles with riders, everyone who makes anything makes a mistake now and then. Its not a personal attack against you, Husqvarna relies on others to build quality components to mate to their equipment. As a result, Husqvarna suffers from disappointment also. I know your problems are your main concern and they do matter, but read the reviews from the Husqvarna website for the product you are wanting to buy or already own. You will see a pattern of where things were purchased, how they were maintained and operated and the problems that soon followed. There are instances where the product just failed to meet standard, Husqvarna is not perfect. I have just never encountered one of those instances where they failed me.

Husqvarna Lawn tractor YTH22V46 - 1st. Issue: Ordered online from DR POWER EQUIPMENT. Order Confirmation from POWER EQUIPMENT PLUS on 8/11/2013. DR POWER EQUIPMENT Order has shipped on 8/13/2013. Recd packing slip from Country Home Product. 2nd. Issue: Very hard to start, struggled with it for one summer. Finally went on line to ** and found a article about starting problems on this L.T. The choke was not adjusted properly at the factory. A simple turn of the screw on the bracket which holds the cable allowing it to move freely. Jumped on and turned the key and it started right up! 3rd. Issue: After running the L.T. for about a hour on 5/15/2015 went to start and it wouldnt. Gasoline was pouring out of the manifold. Now the L.T. is at the Local Husqvarna Dealer waiting for at least two (2) weeks for a carburetor repair. Local dealer has one repair man and a two week back log of Husqvarna products. No idea what this repair will cost. They will call with estimate! My advice - buy the green one!

Very disappointed in my lgt 2654 Husqvarna lawn tractor. Bought it in 2008 and have had numerous problems with it mainly the deck and now the left rear axle has broke. I cannot believe a hardened steel axle broke. My advice - stay away from Husqvarna lawn tractors.

We bought a Husqvarna Lawn tractor. I have only had it for 3 years and the engine blew up. We were told by a local repair person that they were pretty much a disposable mower. I have been working, trying to find another motor, and have read on how many of these mowers have had this same problem. I dont consider $2000 disposable. We have finally been told it will cost us about $1000 to have it fixed. The mower blew up the summer of 2010. It always backfired and was told that was normal. I believe Husqvarna should have to replace these engines for the shoddy work that has been done to them.

Since I owned this unit, nothing but trouble. Deck welds broken 2 times. Both front tires worn out and recalled, took 4 months to get mower back under warranty. New tires on 2 weeks and rims broken in half at welds. Also new tires are wearing out again. We have a nice yard with no problems hitting things. Our front tires face outward with steering wheel centered. This as well as all my front end concerns must be related so why wont they fix it and not take so long. We are very unhappy.

In April I bought a new Husqvarna mower from a local authorized dealer. The mower has never mowed level. After several tries to adjust the level myself (the turning of one nut) I contacted the dealer about it. They took it to their shop and reported back that I had bent a blade. I thought that was not true since it had not mowed level since its delivery, but I said OK and paid for new blades. It still did not mow level. They took it back to shop and replaced a part of the leveling mechanism, it still did not mow level. After keeping it a week doing whatever they brought it back today and I just finished mowing my yard and it is somewhat better but still is not level. I am contacting them tomorrow to take it back for the fifth time. I am getting so tired of this. If they cant fix it this time I will try to sell it and buy me another brand mower.

From very beginning our 24HP YTA24V48 48 B&S INTEK V-TWIN with 3-year extended warranty would not pull upgrade once warmed up. The pedals also lock up and have to be stomped to work. Took to the same dealer twice during the first year. Each time they claimed they could find nothing wrong. Took to a different dealer. They said that the transmission is in a vinyl housing and that they have had many of these brought in with the same complaint. After two months, they said Husqvarna would not approve replacement of the transmission. After two more weeks they still told me the same. I picked the mower up and use only on level terrain. Bought a Cub Cadet for mowing the hillsides and it works beautifully. My three-year extended warranty was worthless.

LGTH22V48 - Bought mower new. Mowed my sparse lawn a few times and started to have issues with clods of cut grass falling from underside of mower deck where grass was packing excessively. When these clods fell into spinning blades the mower would bog and several times (5) the mower actually stalled (full engine stop). The last time it happened the left side blade arbor sheared all four mounting ears and tore out of the deck. This caused the belt to tear itself up, ruining it. I took mower to dealer who inspected and cleaned it trying to find cause. Dealer confirmed to me that he found NO indication of abuse/blade strike and in fact the broken arbor carried the least nicked blade of the 3. After several days dealer informed me that warranty was denied citing operator abuse. I was left with the bill and no resolution to the mower deck packing issue. I posted a summary of this issue on Husqvarnas facebook page and have had contact but no resolution to my complaint. Today after mowing my yard for the 2nd time since the repair I scraped out the mower deck and out came a pile of highly compacted grass 10 high and 23 across at the base. More than half of a five gallon pails worth! The packing issue persists with no resolution in sight.

Husqvarna ZTR mower only 2 weeks old has lost tension on the deck idler pulley. I called to get some information on how to fix this and they could only send me to service shops many miles away. They had no desire or ability to let me have the technical service information to fix this trivial problem; rather, they want to direct me to expensive service and much cost for transport. This is beyond lousy service. Every lawnmower owner should be able to get decent technical service documents.

My husband also had problems with a Husqvarna LGT2554 purchased from Lowes. The rear axle broke. Seems like many others have had the same problem. Husqvarna or Lowes should do a recall and replace these at no charge. Otherwise, they will lose business because we had thought we were buying a good product but now we will not buy Husqvarna products.

All in all the RZ4621 has been a decent mower. I am writing this to maybe save someone else who has purchased this mower, some time. I was going through problems with my deck belt coming off continuously. I could not find a single review that helped solve my problem. Every time I would go out to mow, I would engage the blades only to have the belt fly off. I would re-install, try to engage again and the same thing. Sometimes it would take as many as 12 times until it would hold and I could mow. Now mind you this happened every single time I would go out to mow. Once it would stay, I could shut it off and start it again that day, but sure as Im writing this review, I would have to do the same thing the very next week in order to mow again. I tried everything from all the reviews and complaints that I would read - I tightened the spring, I changed the idler pulley with the belt keeper, you name it, I tried it. I finally read a post on a forum somewhere where a guy was going through the exact same thing. Someone had suggested he tighten the bolt running through the other idler pulley which tightens the idler arm firmly to the deck. I went out to check the situation of my idler arm and it was as loose as a goose. For some reason it never dawned on me when putting the belt back on time after time that the idler arm should not have play in it. I guess what did I know. Bottom line is this - If for some reason you cannot get your belt to stay on when engaging the blades, check your bolt that goes through the pulley that attaches the idler arm to your deck - You will be glad you did. I have not had this happen to me since then and I check to make sure the 5/8ths bolt is tight before using the mower. Life is good now and the months of aggravation are over. I hope this helps someone.

For anyone thinking of buying a Husqvarna, dont let the store lied to you like they lied to me. They told me if there was a problem with the mower to bring it back to them and they would fix it in about a week. Well in three weeks it didnt run anymore so I took it back. And was told I cannot bring it there and then I cannot return it, I have to take it to an authorized service center. Not what they told me when I bought it, but it sounds ok, right. Nope. Below is a copy of the text on Husqvarnas webpage.Why would a servicing dealer refuse to repair my equipment that I purchased elsewhere? Each of our dealers is an independently owned business and we cannot control their business decisions. We can only suggest that you call ahead, prior to bringing your unit in for repair, to make sure a dealer can and will assist you. If necessary, contact customer service for other authorized servicing dealer options in your area. All the service centers in my area will not honor the warranty. So I have to pay to have my 3 week old lawnmower repaired! I will never ever buy another Husqvarna!

Hi, I purchased a Husqvarna tractor - yth2348 in 2012 which ran OK for 2 years, and since then continually throws off the drive belt every time I try to back the machine up. Its starting to do that in forward direction now too. I put a new drive belt on which did nothing to help, checked the pulleys and belt retainers at the pulleys, and all are good. It is a shame to spend so much money on a tractor that is the most unreliable machine I have ever operated. And I am a heavy equipment operator. I usually dont write reviews but feel compelled to tell everyone from what I have read about Husqvarna machines and my own experience... DO NOT EVER purchase a Husqvarna ANYTHING! THEY are all junk, and the US Attorney General should intervene as it is a CRIME to sell these pieces of Husqvarna junk.

I purchased a T435 Chainsaw in February of 2011. It has never run correctly and I have brought it to 2 different dealers for repair. I have spent time and additional money on repairs and still have a saw that runs poorly. I have spoken with 3 levels of Husqvarna support and they refuse to do anything about this issue. They also refuse to warranty the expenses I paid to get my saw back from the second dealer.I am considering small claims action for this problem. I would like everyone to know that Husqvarna will not stand behind there products.

We bought a new Husqvarna mower at the end of last summer. We have had problems with getting it in gear and with breaking. The local dealer informs us that there is a recall for this problem. Husqvarna has no fix and advises not to use it. So, we have a new mower and cant use it for safety reasons. I am not happy at all.

Within 2 months of owning a Husqvarna 46 inch zero lawn mower, it stopped going forward. With 1.5 months of owning a Husqvarna AWD push mower, it stopped cranking. I took it back to Lowes and was advised that it had to be placed in the shop. Well, the shop returned the mower and stated that the carb was clogged and the starter cord was damaged. This is not covered under warranty. I took my push mower to a local dealer and learned that it needed a new coil. The dealer replaced the coil and the mower started right up. My Husqvarna hedge trimmer stop working after owning it 3 months. The gas line had deteriorated, and of course it was not covered under the warranty. Im done with Lowes and the Husqvarna products.

I purchased Husqvarna GHT2754 garden tractor 9 years ago from a local dealer. The first year all was well. The second year a pulley bracket broke. Brought the tractor to the dealer for repairs. Was told the tractor was out of warranty so I would have to pay for any repairs. The third year a similar thing happened. Dealer told me he feels the mower deck was under-designed for its size, (54). Would have been nice to know before purchase. Repairs were made. Later that year or possibly the next the deck broke for the third time. Again this was a pulley mount. This time the dealer asked if I would mind if he sent it to a friend who has experience fixing farm equipment. A year passed with no problems but the next year the mower deck front mounting plate broke. I was so frustrated I had a friend fabricate a reinforced part and weld it. Last year the steering stopped working. When disassembled the plastic bearing had failed and wore through the steel mount. Again a new much stronger mount and bearing were fabricated and installed. Yesterday while installing a new drive belt I found the bracket for yet another pulley was cracked to the point it will need to be welded and reinforced as well. Each time I had a failure it cost me time and money to make repairs, hire someone else to cut my grass and even pay to have the dealer pickup the tractor to bring in for repairs. I wish I had kept better records and photos because I think I would be talking to a lawyer regarding this. I should have researched Husqvarna better prior to buying this tractor. I would have been far better off and money ahead, if I had hired a lawn service these past 9 years. My recommendation is to stay away from Husqvarna products unless you enjoy spending your free time rebuilding poorly designed and manufactured products.

I bought this mower three years ago replacing a 13 year old yard machine. This was the first time I ever drove a zero turn. It was easy to catch on to and it cut my mowing time down to two and a half hours mowing time from three and a half hours

440 Chainsaw too hard to start WTF?? I bought this thing because I love my Husqvarna riding mower, but the first weekend it took me the better part of an afternoon and partially disassembling the engine and putting it back together again before I could get it to start. I get the impression that it was flooding with the at least 6 pushes of the fuel bulb but I tried it repeatedly with 1, 2, 3 and every other combination of pushes and sequences with no success. Im a strong 40 year old guy too and a former Marine, so dont tell me I wasnt pulling it hard enough or enough times. I can generally get anything to start. Im on the second weekend now and same thing, spent all afternoon trying and no success. It may be that my fuel/oil ratio is off, not sure. Or perhaps the fuel isnt high octane enough? So frustrating, but those are the next things to try. PITA.

The cutting deck only has difference of 1 from the highest to the lowest with the lift handle. The dealer I bought it from says it cant be raised because of belt alignment. It wont load on trailers unless I find a special place to load.

I purchased an all wheel drive Husqvarna mower from Lowes and it was a good reliable lawn mower for about a year, after that I started having problems with the transmission. I ended up pushing more than it went forward on its own (it went very slow). The 3rd season (still under warranty) I brought it in for repair and the service center said it was used commercially and not used for residential cutting so they said it was abused. I had a Toro for 20 years and it was still running when I got rid of it. I live on a half-acre so theres a lot of grass but I dont own a lawn maintenance service and I do not let anybody else mow with my lawn mower. I also dont know how you abuse a transmission, the outside of a lawnmower is just fine and so is the oil and it starts up just fine. I called Husqvarna to dispute it but they said they stand by the repair centers judgment since they cant see the lawn mower. They sent me a $50 gift certificate to go use at the service center. I never brought the lawn mower in for any repairs, this would be the only warranty issue and they still would not cover it. I do not recommend Husqvarna.

I have a riding lawn mower thats in shop all the time. According to the specialist who has been working on lawn mowers for 20 years, my lawn mower had been dropped off a truck and then sold to me. The mower deck fell off after 6 months; front was bent, and now the frame is breaking off. He has never seen anything like this before. I contacted the company and filed a complaint and was told someone would call me back. Its been a week and have not heard from the company.

Well, I will join the crew who unfortunately purchased a Husqvarna riding mower.. and at Lowes.. A double whammy for sure. First out of the gate with glee mowing the 1.8 acres we own. All great! Then the next time I get on to mow.. the front tires are FLAT! This has continued for two seasons and now in the third. Visited the Lowes where purchased.. nobody or even has a suggestion.. This being three weeks after purchase. They say I need to buy new wheels? LOL yeah right. They say they have no interest in helping and I should contact Husqv.. Yeah that worked.. They said go to the Lowes.. LOL Well, here we are third season.. go to the shop to get the mower spruced for Spring.. FLAT tires of course.. NEVER. NEVER again will I EVER buy Husqvarna ANYTHING or Lowes for that matter. Finished, done.. all gone. I am buying a new JD at the end of this season.. Selling off the crap and going for the gold standard. And I will shout it out to all I know, see, hear. etc.. this sucks.

I checked out a lot of different zero turn mowers and ended up with a Husqvarna MZ 52LE. The dealer raved over the quality of construction and durability of this mower. What he didnt say was what a piece of crap this mower is with zero turning or traction. If you have any respect for your lawn as I do you will NEVER buy a Husqvarna. These mowers rip your lawn into shreds. Any time you try to turn around, the stationary tire locks and just rips a nice hole in your lawn (every time). And Lord forbid you get onto a hill and need to back up, the tires will literally just spin until you are really good and stuck, and you find yourself on many, many occasions having to get a tow strap and pull it out. My old mower (Grasshopper) never got stuck. Had I known what I know now I would never, EVER have purchased this mower!

I bought this Husqvarna 42xls in Sep. of 2012. It has 120 hr. on. It started burning up belts. Went through 3 new belts before carrying in to the dealer for repairs. Said it would be 10 days to two weeks before it would be ready. Two weeks pass did not hear from them. Just went in to check on it. And it was push in the back of the shop. Said they could not get a hold of me. The case on the trans. was cracked on both sides. I had made a power hatch and installed it on the back. They took one look at it and that was the cause the problem. They say the belt was out under the mower that the tram and frame is connected to was not hooked up. I told them it never was but they did not believe me. So what good does it to buy a warranty.

I bought my RZ4623 on 3-12-12 and my first invoice for warranty work was 6-21-12. While cutting a flat space of grass the deck began to shake violently. I raised the deck and again engaged the blades and it didnt shake as bad but the blade on the right side would not turn. Upon inspecting it closer I noticed that the pulleys are PLASTIC?!? And the bolt and shaft that hold the pulley to the blade housing is METAL? During normal use any mower deck gets a rough ride and it is just a matter of time before metal chews up plastic in such a rough place. I took it in for service and was without a mower for the better part of the summer. Last year was ok. Now this year I was cutting my grass and the same exact thing has happened with the same exact pulley on the right side. I see some people have said the belt comes off and Im guessing the bind and pressure puts extra force on that right side and either the belt comes loose or that metal shaft wears out the plastic on that side. $2600 from Lowes for this piece of crap and 2 out of 3 summers it will be spent inoperable. Lowes passes the buck to Husqvarna and Husqvarna wants me to take it to a service center and fix it. I dont want it fixed, I want a different mower. This is the last full summer of my warranty coverage and I already know this pulley WILL fail again. It already has done the same exact thing twice, why do I want the same LEMON back to break down again next summer to the tune of a $200 repair? There is a definite design flaw on this mower, a manufacturer defect, a LEMON is what it is. But you can forget a recall being issued. There is too much money spent to recall it. They would rather settle their issues one at the time even if it comes to a lawsuit which mine may come to because $2600 for a mower that wont mow 2 out of 3 summers is absolutely unacceptable!

Ive bought two of these mower (Husqvarna yth24k48) in the past ten years and always had problem from the day I got it. Fuel line went out and the oil line wasnt install properly after 5 year of the newest one. I have the transmission went out on it. Dont buy a Husqvarna. I bought the recent one in 2012. The one had problems since day one.

I bought my snowblower just about 11 months ago paying $1400 and thinking it must be good choice and should last longer than cheaper brands. What a terrible mistake. Just to get ready for the upcoming winter, I took it out of my garage and tried, but the engine wont start. I bought a can of carburetor cleaner and applied it and check the gas line, but it still doesnt start. I called Lowes for warranty service as it is less than a year old, but they want to charge $130 for pick up and delivery charge for warranty service. I tried to complain to Husqvarna website but there is no phone or e-mail contacts. What kind of company is that? I will never buy another Husqvarna and will do the best I can to discourage people from buying their equipment. Husqvarna and Lowes both suck the most.

First problem, two front tyres were tubeless and porous, had to purchase two tubes. The grass box on this machine is rubbish, it will not stay closed. No thought nor design for the grass box. The box is supported by two weak brackets and two small spindles, the box springs up out of the spindles. Any machine would be better than this.

Purchased Lawnmower new from local Lowes end of May. I only used it about 4 times to cut 1.5 acres of grass. Lawnmower stopped moving and was smoking. Wouldnt go forward or backward. Loaded it up and took to local distributor because I owned it 41 days and Lowes absolved themselves after 30 for floor model mowing equipment. Local distributor has mower for 31 days. Meanwhile, I have to pay someone $100/week for these 4 weeks to cut my grass. Fast forward to August 1, when I get Lawnmower back from repair and they explain they fixed the transmission. Cut grass ONCE, and the very next time I try to use the mower again, it has the EXACT same problem: smoking and will not proceed forward or backward. I call the Husqvarna customer service line to try and seek resolution in the form of a replacement Lawnmower or my money back. Rep says he cant issue a refund or a new mower, that I have to go through the distributor again. Meanwhile, it rains every day and I will have to pay someone twice as much to cut this high grass. What a terrible piece of equipment that I wasted $1900 on! I am so upset and discouraged by their laissez-faire attitude. Do Not Purchase this!

$440.00 RIP OFF - worse thing ever. Less than 2 years -- spent over 400 and it is in the shop. Part for kohler engine is back ordered. THEY SUCK. Could not get warranty - choke issue. Machine was a problem the day I bought it. Auto key start would not start it. Then broke, choke issue, fuel leak and I babied that engine. Had a craftsman for 20 years and when I got rid of it, it started on the 1st pull still, but had to go due to metal fatigue!!!!!!!!! DO NOT BUY THEIR PRODUCTS WITH A KOHLER. I cannot speak for their other stuff but they assembled it and made it - HUSQVARNA. Be careful.

Bought model 725 AWD push mower from Lowes in Sept. 2015. Used it 5 times and begin having to pull rope too many times to get mower started. Suppose to start in two pulls. Then at about 10 times using it All Wheel Drive cable stopped working. After looking at the underside of mower noticed molded part of transmission where cable goes into was broken off and missing so AWD is useless now.Mower is too heavy to push without the belt working. No help from Lowes customer service and couldnt find a local dealer to try and get it fixed under the 3-year warranty. Which Im pretty sure they would say it was my fault. Transmission part that broke was made of plastic. Bad choice for a $500 mower. Husqvarna doesnt even carry the transmission after a year old. Replacement part online from source other than Husqvarna is $80 plus the cost of having it installed. Not buying another mower from them!

Problem with blade and bolt falling off new Husqvarna GTH26V52LS Garden Tractor, three times in the 1st year of ownership: Will Husqvarna wait until someone is seriously injured or killed by loose blade? I am angry and dissatisfied. I have contacted the corporate offices as well as the dealership and their home office with no response. On 6/2/11, I purchased a new Husqvarna GTH26V52LS Garden Tractor from STI Turf Care in Colfax, NC. The 2nd day I used the mower with only 5 hours on it, a blade and bolt dropped from the mower. I never heard anything and had mowed a while before I saw the blade and bolt on the ground, together with bolt threads up from the center of the star hole of the blade. I mow a lot of grass and my lawn is certainly not a golf course, but was on smooth and level ground when this happened. The dealer was not going to even come and pick up the 2-day old mower with only 5 hours on it or cover under warranty. They insisted I must have hit something to shear off the bolt. I did not. After planning to return the mower for full refund, the dealer finally agreed to pick it up and make repairs. Im sure they put the same blade and bolt back on the machine. Then in October 2011 (5-month old mower with 88 hours on it), a blade fell off again and I found the bolt within one foot of the blade. Perfectly smooth and level ground once again. The dealer again flatly refused to pick up the mower and make repairs under warranty. I misplaced the bolt in my garage and they priced a new one for $10.00 (no warranty since it had to be my fault per the dealer). I went to LTD in King, NC and bought a new factory bolt for under $6.00. The local repairman I have always trusted to service three John Deere and Toro Wheelhorse (I have used on the same grounds past 15 years without ever having a blade fall off in any of them!). He made the repair, sharpened all the blades and serviced the machine. I decided after their ripoff price for the part that should be warrantied, overall poor service attitude and not standing behind their product, I would not deal with STI again. All went well until yesterday, 6/16/12, with 111.5 hours and just over one year old, the blade fell off again on perfectly smooth and level ground. As with other two times, no noise or any idea blade was off until I came around and saw it on the ground. This time, I cannot find the bolt. I am extremely aggravated and disappointed considering the price I paid for this machine. I am not abusing the tractor or subjecting it to anything or anywhere my two JD or Toro have gone before. Cutting at 2.5 to 3 and no obstacles. This problem is not from the operator; it has to be a mechanical defect. I have not marked the blades so I have no idea if it is the same blade each time. What do you suggest? I received no help from dealership.

Purchased new mower (46 riding mower) less than 2 months ago from Lowes. I love many things about the mower mostly the pep getting up hills and the light weight that I can easily get unstuck from around my pond by myself but my love affair ends there. With the light weight comes the cheap quality of components. Mind you I replaced a John Deere mower that was about 10 years old and only had problems with battery. So far this mower has busted the housing that holds the deck and blade together. It is very poor quality, cheap metal that busted off at bolts. Talked to Lowes and they said it would cost me to get the mower to a repair center and I would be without it some time while they repaired it. I couldnt afford to be without a mower so I replaced the part myself. Shortly after the bolts fell out and deck again failed, ordered new bolts and replaced. Next is the belt keeps falling off and it wont go into reverse without fighting with cheap, plastic foot pedal that bends when you try to press it with your foot. It locks up in either forward or when you finally get it into reverse locks there as well. The quality of the parts used is the worst ever. Who would expect a flimsy piece of plastic to last very long as a foot pedal? So I am a single parent and this was a major investment for me, and now I am forced to be a mechanic because I cant afford to be without a mower. I wish in hindsight I would have gone with the JD but it was heavier and it was important that I be able to lift the mower out of the mud myself when I got stuck.

Husqvarna CTH194 Ride On Mower - Purchased the mower in France for 3750 Euros. Cut Grass 3 times and mandrel broke on all 4 lugs. Supplier said it was not covered by warranty. Purchased new one and fitted it myself. 2 cuts later, mower screeched to a halt with smoke coming from deck area. The small gear case assembly above the right pulley revealed exploded bearings (ALL MADE IN CHINA). The shop refuse to pay for it even though admitting it is a bad design. Proprietor of shop becoming more and more elusive. They tell me all that is covered by warranty is motor, chassis and gearbox. Hours on the clock 33.

The deck wont move up and down on my yard. It gets stuck every time the ground is a bit higher than the rest.

Husqvarna TYH24K48 - Bought this mower about 3 weeks ago, had about 4 hours on it & it threw the deck belt. Every time I put it back on it would twist sideways. Ordered a new one from eBay. I noticed when ordering it was a 5/8 wide belt, belt got here fast, took belt off to change it & it measured 1/2 wide, new belt was right. Call that So Called warranty Dept. to tell them to send me a Correct belt. I was told I would have to take Mower to their service center to have 1 of Their Service Personnel determine problem. I Told them, Dont Insult My intelligence. Im a Grown Man, and I Just Told them What the Problem Was!!!! BEWARE Husqvarna!!!!! BUY ANOTHER BRAND. They are a Bad Co. That do not care about You!!!!!!!!!

Mower model 206128961 - Bought 1/22/2016. No oil drain plug. Must flip mower almost upside down to drain. Plastic oil hole cap cant provide a tight seal. Fine threads in the oil hole but very coarse threads on cap - Result is Oil leakage when operating. Kohler has other engines with a oil filler tube assembly that provides a tight seal. This engine on this mower was made to Husqvarna specs. It appears Husqvarna eliminated the more expensive oil tube assembly to increase their profit. This is the LAST Husqvarna product I will buy.

Oil leak in engine. Fixed. Currently experiencing mower running for 2 seconds and cutting off. Replaced fuel filter to no avail. Checked fuel lines and fuel is flowing well. Dont know if its the carburetor or what. Could use some guidance. Thanks.

I purchased a new Husqvarna ST224 snow blower November 17, 2014. Our first snow was today, January 6, 2015. I have about 5 inches of snow on my driveway and when I started to clear it with my brand new, never used Husqvarna snow blower after about ten minutes of us the drive wheels stopped turning and parts fell out the under side of the snow blower. When I called the owner of Mower Zone in Danville, Indiana his response was, I sorry but it is mechanical and sometimes mechanical things break. I understand mechanical thinks breaking but not in the first ten minutes of use! The Manager of Mower Zone said he would send someone to pick it up and see if they could fix it. I ask for a loaner to be able to clear my driveway and he said they didnt do that. If that isnt enough to steer you away from Husqvarna, there was a $50 mail in rebate on this model snow blower. I sent in the rebate form and have not received the rebate. When I try to call to find out the status I get a recording telling me they are having technical problems and my call cannot be processed and I should call back at another time. This has been going on for weeks. I know I will never see my $50 rebate Husqvarna promised.

The 42 Zero Turn mower belts keep breaking and it has been in the shop more than 10 times for repairs. It went back in today for the deck lowering or higher and bracted brock. I only had it for less then 2 years.

Let me start by saying that a warranty is like insurance - Its wonderful to have as long as you dont need to use it. I purchased my zero turn with a catching system attached, May 2014. During the second or third cut, apparently the chute clogged and stopped the blower fan from turning. This in turn made the belt that turns the blower break. I probably should have made a lot of noise at that point. However, I needed the mower and could not be without it for any period of time (I mow 4 acres), so I simply removed the catching system and used it that way. Apparently, when the belt broke, it did some latent damage to the spindle on which it rides. It finally gave out last weekend. Since it was still under warranty, I called Husqvarna and they told me warranty claims could not be initiated over the phone. An authorized dealer must personally inspect it. They gave me the names of the two closest to me.I took the parts in to one of them for him to inspect, but he would not help me in any way, shape or form because I did not purchase the machine from him. He told me the big box store I purchased it from was responsible for all warranty claims. He was sick and tired of the big box stores getting all the sales while he gets stuck with all the warranty work. In fact, he stated that he loses money on warranty work. Im still trying to figure that out. However, he was more than happy to sell me the parts at list price. I tried to write this experience as a review on the Husqvarna website, but they refused to post it because it did not meet their review guidelines. Big surprise there. The bottom line is - I will use this mower until it wears out, which eventually it will. When replacement time comes, I will look elsewhere.

The very highest setting on my mower cuts too low. It is about 2.5 inches. Certified Service business says everything is up to spec. I have seen posts that I may need a new tire size. Husqvarna is non-responsive. Not sure where to go from here. And Yes, the tires are properly inflated.

I researched all brands and bought this one even though I was skeptical after seeing the tractor in person. It was a plastic piece of junk. It scalped the grass even though the deck was leveled at the dealer twice. Uneven cut and forget about going around a corner on a slight angle. One side was cut down to the dirt while the other side was 3 inches high.I tried everything and still good. Putting the deck lift handle on the left side is ok if you are left handed but It was impossible to raise while moving with my not dominate left hand. No power steering was another mistake that I made. I actually sprained my wrist trying to make a close turn and I am 6ft. 230 lbs. I paid for the mulching kit but it threw so much grass up over the top of the tractor I had to take off the mulching plus and use it with no diffuser. The dealer was very co-operative but after having the tractor for only 3 days I paid a 10% restocking fee and that along with losing the sales tax cost me nearly $600.00. I called Husqvarna and got no return call. I bought a Cub Cadet and paid more but it is a world of difference better.

I bought a new garden tractor/riding mower from Husqvarna via Amazon in March 2017. Within two months it would not go into reverse. I used it as is so I could care for the 10-acre garden/lawn/orchard/vineyard I maintain until the damn thing blew up, scattering parts everywhere. It was the transmission and the clutch. Under warranty. Called Husqvarna to find a local dealer for service (I live in an extremely remote area of the US) and was referred to one some miles away who refused to service my tractor because I had not bought it from him. Called Husqvarna to report this and to see what else I could do. Turns out there was a dealer in the town closest to me, which they had failed to mention first time. It sat in the shop for weeks as we waited for parts and/or argued with Husqvarna about the warranty.Finally got it back and guess what? Two months later the transmission did the same thing: No reverse and then no forward either. It has been in the shop for weeks while we wait for parts that are back ordered or whatever is the most recent excuse. In short, out of the 17 months that I have had ownership of this equipment, I have had only 4 months of full service. I have had three garden tractors over the years and never had these kinds of problems. I will never, ever buy a Husqvarna again and would not recommend it to my worst enemy. Not only is the product inferior (plastic parts in a transmission?!) but the customer service is terrible. Perhaps I have a lemon (that can happen) but I will never take a chance like this again - and it cost twice what I am accustomed to paying! In truth, Id just like my money back so I can buy something that performs. And I have any number of witnesses to this so Husqvarna cannot dispute my claims.

Every lawn tractor I have owned is a dead-man design; take your foot off the pedal and the machine stops its movement forward or back. This new machine of mine is operated by a lever on the fender, and keeps moving until the lever is moved to neutral, or the brake is engaged. Which responds as though encountering a wall. So, I have a question; how did the Consumer Protection folks let this design pass review? Any thoughts?

Fuel is leaking into the oil pan, causing the engine to smoke and stop running. How do I fix this? Thanks.

I purchased a blower #115351227 less than 2 years ago. I have gardeners so I only use this thing about 12 times a years. It crapped out and took it to Lowes (a separate story), sent to so called authorized repair center. Its nearly 60 days later and now he tells me corporate is not responding, so he cant repair it. Tried contacting Poulan eight hundred number and this is your worst nightmare. Bottom line, I have a blower that is now technically out of way because my unit sat at a so called approved repair store that apparently was not approved. The hundred bucks for the blower is not my issue. I most certainly dont need the aggravation. If the CEO of Husqvarna gets to read this, I would hope heads will roll. This no way to run a company. Somebodys got to know that you guys need help.

At 22 hrs on the 54-inch Zero turn mower, a piece of metal under the mower deck came loose and got wadded up in the blade. The dealer was NO help at all, but referred us to a warranty center that told us it would be at least 8 weeks before they could repair it - so we found another warranty center in town here. The second repair center said it would be about 2 weeks to get it done -- THEN we find out that they had to send it to the ACTUAL repair department 150 miles away - then we found out that it would be 6 to 8 weeks before a Husqvarna rep could look at it to see if it would be warranted.We could not talk to the person at the repair station because he was out for the day. We then called Husqvarna customer service (LONG wait to talk to someone - AND - EVERY time we get transferred to another person). The person we were talking to called the repair department where the mower is (STILL) and again, the person to talk to there is out for the day. The one time we did finally talk to the repair department head guy (when we finally were told about the 6-8 week delay). He said that our mower was the FIRST one that they had gotten to work on since becoming a warranty shop (THAT is scary). The Husqvarna company says they will call me when they talk to correct person at the repair center. At this point, we are without a new mower for 4 weeks.

I purchased a new O turn at the beginning of the season. The very first time I mowed it bent a push rod. Didnt even get my yard mowed all the way. Mower had 4 hours on it and when it was delivered it had over 2. The dealership I purchased from wanted to charge me for pick up so I called a different one and thankfully they were great and didnt charge that. Still though. EVERY TIME I mow, the belt comes off as soon as I turn the blades on. I oil the blades every time before I mow. I baby the mower. I had had this dealership come get it 3 times now. They put a new belt on it, they adjusted the blades, nothing has helped. It started sneaking while in motion at about 10 hours. Only one of the headlights work. I could go on and on. IT is a Lemon. I have called Husqvarna. They just tell me to call the dealer. What happens when my warranty is up? My brother has had the same mower for 4 years, just an older version, never one issue. This is just ridiculous. If I wanted these problems I could have bought old used mower. Thats what I feel like I have. I have not mowed the yard one time without a problem.

I feel great on my Husqvarna lawn mower. It makes mowing more likely to look forward to rather than dread. I like how it feels to drive rather than it shaking you as you ride. It takes me only two days to mow at least 2 acres around my house.

We bought this lawnmower for personal use on our 3.75 acres. The first year, we had no issues. Year two, the blades came flying off while in use and someone could have been killed. The plastic pieces that hold the blades on are useless. We had to spend $300 on replacement parts and blades. Husqvarna would not respond to any of our inquires. Year three is turning out to be again this year on first use, flying blades. We again shelled out $300 on replacement parts. As soon as the parts came and were installed we made two passes in the yard and the water pump and vacuum hose went! Spent $200 to replace those and now the damn thing won’t go 100ft without shutting off and not restarting. I’ve had it! Husqvarna will not respond to any emails, calls, FB messages or posts. This mower has less than 200 hrs on it and it sits useless in my yard. Everyone I talk to says to scrap it as it not worth fixing.

I bought a 2011 model 46 riding mower that spring from Lowes. Ran it about an hour and it shredded the belt. Called Lowes and they were happy to bring me a new mower (same model), which wasnt too bad. My current mower has 45 hours on it and Ive replaced the belt, replaced the left mandrel assembly, new blades, and now I have to replace the mandrel pulley. Not to mention soft tires that have been repaired, mis-adjusted choke assembly and a deck that will not remain adjusted. I will not buy another Husqvarna.

We purchased a new Husqvarna YTH21K46 riding mower from Lowe’s located in New Hartford NY store a few years back. While I was mowing our lawn yesterday (7/16/17) I noticed flames shooting out the front cowl. This appeared to be a fuel line that may have became defective and failed. The mower is complete loss and we are now looking for a new mower within only a few years of purchasing this one. Local law enforcement and fire department were called to extinguish the blaze since the fuel tank was nearly full. We have had nothing but problems with this mower since we purchased it, the engine mounts were never tightened from the factory and I had to install new ones. The welds on the mower deck broke and had to be re-welded. The exhaust manifold kept coming loose, the list goes on and on.This is very disappointing and somewhat disturbing knowing this fire could have caused serious injury. We won’t be purchasing another mower from Husqvarna due to the quality of the product. I have reached out to Husqvarna about this issue and they did take an incident report and said they would be calling me back. I will update again once they respond or if they respond.

I purchased this mower (YTA24v48) from Lowes and used it 2 times and it has only has 8 hours on it. Something broke on it and it would not go forward or back up. Lowes picked it up on April 2nd and sent it to Husqvarna repair shop and they dont know when it will be fixed. They said they had to order a part and was waiting on it. That has been 3 weeks ago. I am not happy with the service or the mower. I would like to exchange it for another brand But just have to wait on Lowes to do something.

Purchased a riding lawn mower back in 2012. 2 months after purchasing it, the transmission blew. They did replace it because it was under warranty. This weekend the same exact things happened. Called because I purchased what I believed to be was a 5 year warranty. Nope, they sold me a plan that goes on top of a plan (for $200 I got 1 extra year on top of their warranty). I called Lowes, the guy was wrong. I called **, the greatest Husqvarna worker to ever live and he says nothing they can do. So here I sit with a 3 year old mower with a blown transmission AGAIN! Never buy a Husqvarna product! Invest the money and buy John Deere.

After looking at reviews (greatest thing since sliced bread) I decided to purchase one of these (Husqvarna ST227P Snowblower), what a mistake. I have used the machine approx. 10x and have had it back to the dealership 7x. To date they have had to replace the carburetor -- machine would not keep running, replace the drive - would not go forward or backwards, belts broke second time I used it, gas lines split and leaked gas after the first season, plastic for the discharge chute controls snapped off and remember this is after only 10 uses. The dealership has had the machine more than I have. I attempted to exchange it for another machine and or have my money refunded but Husqvarna said no but they would extend the warranty for an additional 6 months and keep having it fixed until the warranty run out. In the meantime I have had to borrow a friends machine, pay to have our driveway plowed and shovel.The last time I took the machine in they had to replace the drive which took 2 months for the parts to arrive. Twice when I went to pick the machine up after being called because it was repaired I have had to leave it due to the machine breaking down when they were trying to load it on to my truck. I contacted Husqvarna who in turn contacted the dealership I purchased the machine from and were told that the gas lines leaked was due to me leaving old gas in it over the winter. Unbelievable.All of my equipment is winterized and some are 15 plus years old and have never had the gas line changed, what a joke!! It appears that Husqvarnas quality has gone and I will not be purchasing any more of their products. I currently own 2 of their chainsaws, both over ten years old and never an issue but speaking to friends who have purchase new ones they have had nothing but issues. At this point I am rooting for the greenhouse effect and we never get snow again!!! What a waste of $1698.00.

My mower does not turn well, as soon as you put any weight on the back of the mower, the front wheels do not grip the ground well enough. Also both rear wheels turn at the same time so when you make a turn the inside wheel turns faster and digs up the lawn.

Just purchased a Husqvarna riding lawn mower 46 for $1669 31 days ago and it will not start. Had trouble starting on the 1st, and 2nd time, 3rd time will not start at all.

I purchased a new Husqvarna 2042LS riding mower. I did not receive an owners manual. I found no satisfaction following several requests. The Husqvarna site wants $29 to tell me if manual will be provided. It should have been provided.

Bought my zero turn in July 19 by Aug. 19. The wheel on the deck fell off. The retailer sold me a new bolt and said its a common problem. After 3 more bolt replacement I ask for a new deck with double brackets (the 2020 model) to hold the wheel on. Husqvarna refused. The service center feels they are using any excuse they can not to pay a claim. Ive tried to escalate but they refuse to listen or forward me to a higher authority.

We had ordered an AWD Push lawnmower online and picked up at Ace Hardware. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!! Ace Hardware will not take this back/exchange and we had it less than 1 month. Mowed lawn once. Husqvarna DOES NOT CARE about customer satisfaction!!!! It does not work well with bushes, fine if you just go straight. BEWARE when you buy any products from this company. Very unhappy in Georgia!!

Lets start off with I bought the hu775h push mower rear wheel drive. Start out fine used it for two months. The next year went to cut grass and the drive handle breaks in half. Lowes wouldnt replace it nor would the dealer. They told me I should have bought the extended warranty. Then this year the front wheels drop to the ground, cant push it. Undoubtedly there are plastic bushings holding the front axle and one side broke, cant get a part so the dealer tells me. I guess the only thing made in USA is the motor. The rest made in plastic from God only knows where. 400 dollars of junk and probably havent use this heap of junk no more than 25 times. The only reason yall keep making this crap out of plastic is because you know it will tear up and you just want people to spend more money. And yall call yourself American made built to last. When it should be called American junk, please waste your money and make us richer. What a joke your product is. Should have bought at Walmart. Last longer than this junk.

I purchased this mower (Husqvarna PZT-60 PROF GRADE MOWER) new. It now has just under 50 hours! In that time both hydro units have fallen apart; the last time it threw me into my dump truck! I was injured during the incident and the mower was picked up Oct last year and returned! Six months later no resolve with the mower. I call Christine, after the killer car! They turn the matter over to CORVEL, a third party administrator! No intervention. The man from CORVEL DAVON ** WILL NOT RETURN MY CALL! The incident number is **! The mower is absolute trash. It is underpowered and lacks torque to mow hills. It drops hydro parts faster than it does grass! What warranty one might as well pay high dollar for a pile of scrap metal! One difference the pile of metal will not hurt me like the mower did!

I bought this mower a year ago and it was fine. Now I have to fight with it to get it started. When it runs its fine but getting it started is a pain.

We bought a $3,000.00 Husqvarna mower (used only for mowing). It was used 2.5 seasons and the frame broke on the rear end. I took it in and was told by the repair shop that it is a known defect, and Husqvarna makes a kit to repair it. Husqvarna made me pay half the labor costs! I called the company 2 months ago to complain that its not right to charge people on a factory defect. The guy said he would pass it on. I have never heard another word. My loss is minimal (as its not the money, but the principle). However, their loss will be huge. We have a large family and many church friends. They will no longer do business with Husqvarna. When you are a farmer and all your friends are farmers, that can be a lot of loss. I hope the amount listed below was worth it to them!

I have a 1&1/2 yr old lawn mower and chainsaw. Neither will work after average use on my lawn and on the Brazilian peppers that invade my yard each year. Ive put a new spark plug and air filter in the mower and it still wont run. Poorly designed without a manual choke. They claimed it would start first time every time. Boy that was a lie! A simple choke would make it easier to start and the frame is rusting out horribly. After 1&1/2 yrs the chainsaw, compared to my old Homelite, is impossible to keep running. When I manage to get it running. Poorly designed chain tensioner. Impossible to get and keep the tensioner in a workable position. And it came with the manifold cover finger-tightened down and promptly fell off. Last time I buy anything with this brand name on it.
