When I got the 1811 running, I drove it around a bit and the steering felt fantastic. Is it any different from the others or am I just not used to driving 25 year old Cadets instead of 40 year old ones?

I had an 1862 for a couple years I thought was quite comfy. I had the snowblower and deck but it wasn't the easist thing to swap attachments on mind you but nice to ride.

Loboy was nice to ride also but it has a clutch issue right now

That's funny Todd!!!

I do like the Cyclops series a lot.. they are very comfortable with the seat slides and tilt wheel they fit almost anybody. Turning radius is nice too!

Any super with power steering. The smaller tractors make me feel like I am sitting on a roller skate.

Top of my list is a IH cub Cadet 100 or 70.

A hydro Cub Cadet wouldn't be on my list of most comfortable. To me it is a pain to keep moving the direction lever to go up a hill.


Everyone has their favorites.......mime is an IH cub Cadet 100 or 70.

On more comfortable sitting in the seat putting the durable 125 or 124 to the tasks instead of spending more time on my knees fixing other crap.

Most comfortable cub has to be my 2182 hands down, the one I like to drive the most is my Baby Beast 782 But my 122 comes in a close second.

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.
