I've always pronounced it like the last name, Haban.

Hmm, that doesn't help much...how about this...

Ha (think: say the first half of "half") ben. That's a little better.

I wonder how long until someone gets frustrated trying to read everyones pronunciations and just records themselves saying it

This is how I "read" it, but didn't know what was correct. Since haban was bought out in '95, guess I can't just call and ask.

This is how I read it too.

This is an interesting subject to me because when I read things on forums I may not be pronouncing the words correctly, then when I meet up with someone with similar interests I'm always afraid of saying the words wrong.

This is actually why I started this thread. I had a forum member stop by my place last week to get some parts and while we were chatting he said "haban." First person that had ever said it in front of me, and he said it like Sam said. Soooooo, got me thinking that I was wrong. Apparently we have 4 different pronunciations so far. lol

This is just like on the gun forums where they discuss how to pronounce hornady.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
