I purchased the 42" mower last year, after waiting for our chepo rider to finally give up. I logged hours online reading reviews of various mowers and went with the X Mark mower. I don't plan on buying another mower for a long time so I wanted the most reliable and durable mower for the money. It took a few mowing's for me to get used to the ZTR controls but after that, its something you don't even have to think about.
Our yard is mostly flat with a couple of small steep hills, which I have to use a push mower on. My ONLY complaint for this mower is the lack of traction when making quick turns, really poor when its wet. I believe different tires would make this a moot point.
Our yard looks better than it ever has and I'm VERY pleased with the quality of cut. This mower has plenty of power and unless your mulching tall wet grass, your not going to slow this thing down much.
I have cut my mowing time to less than half of what it used to be and by the time I am done, I can use my string trimmer to touch things up. My push mower only comes out to cut our steep hills and honestly, no rider would be good for that. This past weekend, my neighbor who has the same size yard, started mowing 15 minutes before me. I was able to mow the entire yard, get my trimmer out, use it, put it away, and sit down with a cold beer while they continued to mow.
I mow an acre and I can get 3 cuttings from a fill up. The engine starts easily, runs smooth, develops a lot of power and cuts very cleanly at full speed (without the mulching kit).
This mower costs more than the ones in big box stores but they are the difference between a common Chevy and a Cadillac when it comes to quality and function.

The belt came off the fifth time I used it and I was on level ground. Then the next time I used it a bolt holding one of the steering levers came out and I had to go and get a new bolt. The blades do not cut evenly when not on level ground. The Quest would be a good mower for golf courses!

Comments about Exmark Quest S-Series:
I haven't used the mower very often because we have had an extreme amount of rain since I bought it. However, I have been impressed with the overall performance to date. Although I do not mow a large area, I bought the Exmark because the area I do cut is actually hay not lawn grass. I wanted the durability that the Exmark offers due to its heavier construction.
