The 48-inch deck is a game changer

Went from a 42" tractor to the S160 and cut my mowing time by almost 30%. The 24 HP V-Twin has zero problem in tall grass and cruise control on the long stretches is a back-saver. Best mower I've owned.

Cruise control + LED lights are worth every penny

I mow just under 3 acres. The cruise control lets me set-and-forget on the long runs and the LED headlights are so bright I can finish after sunset if I need to. Delivered fully assembled and ready to mow.

V-Twin ELS is silky smooth

Very impressed with the 24 HP ELS engine — starts on the first turn every time, runs smooth, and the Easy Change oil filter took me 30 seconds like they promised. Solid Deere quality.

Big step up from my old S110

The wider deck, cruise control, and V-Twin power make the S160 feel like a completely different machine compared to my old S110. Turns tight through my gates, and the LED lights are a huge upgrade.

Verified owner

24 HP is plenty of power

Never bogs down, even in the tallest, thickest grass. The ELS V-Twin is quieter than my neighbor's Kubota. Cruise control is a feature I didn't know I needed.

Perfect for 2.5 acres

The 48" deck saved me easily 20 minutes per mow compared to my old 42". Digital fuel gauge is a nice touch and the seat is very comfortable for long sessions.

Great mower, wish it had a 12V outlet

Only complaint — no 12V power outlet for a phone charger. Otherwise the S160 is fantastic. Reliable, powerful, and easy to service thanks to Easy Change oil.
