Bought mine Nov 2021 to use the next year. Worked fine seemingly for the year. 2023 I got maybe six or seven days use before all sorts of things broke off the machine. Enough so that it was put in the shop end of June and parts to fix it didn't show up until almost November. So ardisam offered a new mower (after five months of no mowing the sixty acre deer property it was bought for). 2024 the new replacement lasts about 15 hours. The pulley guide bolts - all 4 get sheared off (pretty sure the same happened on the first one but never realized it), the pulley breaks and the wheel falls off. ardisam says sorry, figure out how to get it out of the field and take it to a service shop. Get it there about the end of June. Get it to the shop, ardisam is covering the cost but the shop tells me don't expect the mower until sometime in September because they're waiting for the parts. Do not recommend, try DR, Swisher or whatever else you can find.

Insightful! Nothing but belt problems with the dr, just about everything that could break and rattle on that thing has done so… so far I’m happy with the acreage, but the Swisher would be my next option in a few years if need be

I did build the pad with a very slight incline to it, so it will drain for spring melt. Huge downpours of water, the water will wash over the bricks. Slow drizzles, water will slowly seep underneath the bricks along the weed barrier

Excellent first impression review. I almost bought a DR Power 44T but after reading all 94 reviews and watching videos it's apparently a hit or miss product. The biggest problem, almost half the complaints were broken belt springs. One guy went through 3 of them with the first breaking during the initial use. After paying $3000+ for an engine on wheels you would think it would be bullet proof. Now that you had the Acreage for over a month, have you used it enough to give it a "buy" rating?
@highvelocitywilliam 12 күн бұрын
My biggest fear was the belt coming off the pullies like was a constant problem with my old DR brush mower. With the pin placement to keep the belt from ever getting unruly and good deeper grooves on the clutch pulley, I have not had the belt jump yet (knock on wood) with the DR I always figured at at least once an hour for belt maintenance. I’m probably sitting around 10 hours now and I am so amazed no belt issues. I’m so done with the DR
@highvelocitywilliam 12 күн бұрын
The one advantage I think the DR does have over the acreage is the engage and disengage actuation. On my DR, you can start the engine, engage and disengage the blades without ever getting off of your machine. I am not a fan of having to engage the blades while I’m standing next to the acreage
@HomesteadOnThePreserve 11 күн бұрын
@@highvelocitywilliam Totally agree on the remote engage but I read many reviews about that button box malfunctioning. That made me lean towards the basic 44T with no remote. In that case I'm back to the Acreage. Thank you for the information and your time.

@@HomesteadOnThePreserve no you don’t have to turn the DR over to access the belt, however, you do you have a much smaller access panel up front and have to remove the fuel tank or work underneath it.

To the best of my knowledge, Caraganas do not have tree-like, far reaching roots. So you don’t have to worry about them running roots into syour foundation from 15 feet way. They only seem to grow roots aggressively up to their branch span… so I would recommend keeping them 3 to 4 feet away from your foundation
