7 foot mowers are fairly rare... due to single gearbox construction, they are very long and tend to vibrate the seams and welds... They have to really over build the frames, and add dual tail wheels. the long design puts the weight way back, giving it more leverage against the tractor and itself. Also its harder on the gear box with the leverage against the blades, so they tend to fail sooner. In commercial applications the multiples of 5 foot cutters (or smaller) seems to last the longest. But they do have their place in certain applications where no other size will do.
a dual/triple box 8 footer will often work better and last longer.
