John Deere--L 100 Mower
Original Message Jul 18, 2005 10:56 am

A friend of mine was telling me he bought his wife a John Deere L-100 mower---says it has a 20 HP Brigg,s engine. Just curious about the price and quality of such mower. He did not tell me how much he paid for it. He has always used Snapper RER for 30 years. ---Will

It's nice to know they have grease fittings. It don't think many except Husqvarna do in that price range/ model.

The Cub Cadet 1000 series has grease fittings and 4 deck wheels.

I am guessing it is a running change and that the newer mowers will get the new spindles after JD has used up the old ones first. I noticed that some of the tractors at Home Depot have the new spindles with the grease zerks and a few did not have them.

Yeah, I have an L100 that I bought from HD last year.

I have a 1/3 acre, flat lawn and this machine cuts beautifully in my situation. Yard looks like a carpet when I finish mowing.

I kind of don't like the gear shifter, it is a little crude and rough. But otherwise I am happy with the machine. If this is what you are interested in, get it you will like it.
