Ariens Lawn Mowers specialize in Zero Turn
Mowers and have just celebrated their 75th anniversary as a company
developing yard
equipment and machinery.
They are a powerful competitor in the lawn
mowing market and as a company have a very simple, but effective vision
statement:-
"Passionate
People...Astounded Customers".
The great depression of the 1930s brought much misery to the working
class but Henry Ariens and his three sons were just getting started by
turning to farm needs with tillers.
As their reputation grew, so did their line of products which included
lawn mowers and high quality snowthrowers. The first 25" push lawn
mower was
delivered in 1952 and they have been making a powerful statement about
quality ever since.
Ariens have also bought over some other famous companies in the lawn
mower market which include Gravely, National, Locke, Everride, Great
Dane and the Stens Corporation.
In
conjunction with their 75th anniversary, Ariens produced a nostalgic
video looking back over the history of their successful business. You
can see the full video below.
Ariens Lawn Mower Products at a Glance
Ariens Zoom Zero Turn Riding
Mowers
The Zoom Zero Turn line of Ariens lawn mowers provide nine different
models that offer outstanding performance. You can choose from the Zoom
34, 42 & 50, the Zoom XL 42, 48 & 54 or the Max Zoom
48, 52 & 60.
Although, 34" to 60" cutting decks and 6-8mph forward ground speeds
make it hard to choose which model is best for your lawn needs.
These zero turn mowers are perfect for homeowners who want to cut their
large yards in half the time. They are super maneuverable and can
negotiate garden obstacles such as trees, bushes and furniture with
ease. The compact design of the Zoom 34
model allows it to fit through a standard 36" gateway.
The Max Zoom 60 is the grandest of the line with a 24HP
Kawasaki FR twin engine and a 10-gauge steel deck. As the name
suggests, it has a massive 60" cutting width with 9 different cutting
positions. The steel frame and
fixed front axle lets you glide over rough terrain with ease.
The cutting deck on these Ariens lawn mowers offers three different
options for
bagging, mulching or
standard side discharge. Ahead of the competition with ergonomically
designed controls and a soft high-backed seat, mowing the lawn will
never
seem like a chore.
Ariens Lawn &
Garden Tractors
Ariens have started to concentrate more on the Zero Turn mower market
as the Lawn and Garden Tractor markets have become saturated with
competing products from other suppliers.
Homeowners are also becoming more interested in zero turn lawn mowers
because of their increased speed and maneuverability. Ariens still
produce a small range of lawn
and garden tractors and they are still a very powerful and
professional looking piece of yard equipment.
They sport 20-25HP engines, 46"-54" cutting spans and a forward speed
of 5.5mph that will finish your yard in half the time of other mowers.
A hydrostatic drive system keeps you content with its durability for
driving year after year.
These models also feature the ergonomic controls that are hard to find
in other lawn and garden tractors such as a hood, headlights and a 15"
high back seat.
The mainframe and deck shell come with a five-year warranty on all
riding models and there is a two-year limited warranty on each tractor
model. That shows you that Ariens doesn't skimp on only the best metal
and manufacturing methods.
Ariens Walk Behind Push
Mowers
Ariens offers five different walk behind models that use the best in
ergonomic design to put an
end to hand fatigue.
Everything is located close on the four-position handlebar including
the six different cutting heights for convenience. On Model LM 21S, a
six horsepower Kawasaki FJ180V commercial engine is guaranteed by the
manufacturer and
has excellent reviews.
The Ariens Wide Area Walk 34 is a very prestigious looking machine.
This model is designed to cut in all types of grass. The accredited
Variable On-The Fly drive system allows the operator to move in and
out, back and forth, between plants and other items without ever
slowing down.
A minimum of 12-gauge steel, with some models having 14-guage, is used
on the steel decks of the walk behind mowers. The WAW34 provides a 34"
twin
spindle cutting width and eight inch front swivel wheels are held
securely in
place for the repeated use that they will no doubt receive.
Ariens Lawn Mowers was the first to introduce the AMP Rider, an
all-electric riding
mower that matches the power, cutting precision and reliable
performance of any gas-powered mower.
Ariens works smarter with innovations in providing customers what they
are looking for. Their new electric model, the AMP Rider is 50% quieter
and has no
belts, gas or oil to maintain. A consistent run time of 75 minutes with
the same amount of power, Ariens are sure to have other companies
following their lead.
