Husqvarna Rider 155 rear-engine riding mower

Date Published: 9/17/08

Can't decide between a lawn tractor and a zero-turning-radius mower? The Husqvarna Rider 155 rear-engine riding mower combines some of the best features of both of those mowers. With a turning radius of just 4 inches, the Rider 155 rear-engine rider maneuvers around trees and other obstacles with ease, and the front-mounted 41-inch cutting deck makes it easy to trim in ordinarily tough-to-access areas.

The heavy-duty, three-bladed BioClip deck mulches, and also doubles as a rear-ejection deck. The deck also flips up quickly to make cleaning, belt replacement, and repair a breeze. Like a traditional riding mower, the design of this model is ergonomic and comfortable, with an adjustable seat and all the necessary controls grouped into one easy-to-reach location. The Rider 155's frames are made of powder-coated steel, and the 16-inch wheels provide a comfortable ride. This model features an electronic starter, a nine-step cutting height from between 1.8 and 3.7 inches, and a forward speed of up to 5.5 miles per hour. The Rider 155 rear-engine riding mower comes with a 2-year residential warranty.
