(ET) Mower deck cut quality

["David CR Buchanan" <buchanan buchanan at>]

I have heard alot of talk about how the Elec Trac mower decks do not give  
a good cut, and I would like to know what kind of mower are being compared  
to. I recently started using an I-5 and it gives a better quality cut than  
any mower I have ever owned except for a push mower. My previous  
experiance with moweres is limited to three brands, Arens, John Deer, and  
Roper and none of them had a deck that lasted, or gave as good a cut as  
the Elec Trak.
