First you might want to define if you want a finish mower, or a rotory heavy duty mower. What you trying to cut? A finish mower is not 'durable' if you try to cut rough stuff. While there are some brush cutters that go through 3" plus saplings.....

King Kutter is useable, but they are far from high-quality.

I wanted a pasture that looked like my lawn. It is improved grass with no brush. Has terraces and gets bumpy when dry (heavy clay soil). Did not select a finish mower (3 blades, 2 small front tires, 2 small rear) because of the small tires.

Have spent tons of money looking for the perfect mower. Haven't found it. The big ones run faster, but they don't do the quality job over rough terrain, and no good for tight spots.

Since I'm retiring, my time is not important any more so I can get what I want in a smaller mower.

My choice (after buying and trying close to a dozen different combinations/brands) is the Rhino SE5 3 pt that I have (sorta permanently) mounted to a MF 35. It's supposed to be their lightweight but it's a tough looking sucker, very clean, great reinforcing, huge gearbox (ripped one up once)and easy to hose off.....not a lot of framework to catch and hold water and grass clippings to rust out.

Nice rig.

(Yesterday I sold my KK 6' that I bought new in 2001.)

I say semi permanently as I have the linkage set for the blade to cut just right and don't want to disturb it.
