1 review for John Deere X949 Diesel Mowing Tractor

  1. Mr M – Newton Abbot

    I wanted a new mulching grass cutting machine and purchased the top of the range X949 with 54” mulching deck from the Chudleigh branch of Masons Kings. I was advised and assisted by Lee Kirk.

    My previous machine was a Kubota G26 and like all things Kubota it was always functional, but not that user focused. In purchasing the commercial John Deere machine, I was looking to achieve a more modern style and approach to the job, together with a more user friendly experience. This I can report I have achieved.

    The X949 is a heavy duty robust grass cutting marvel. We use it on a Dartmoor farm where it serves it’s purpose well. I can equally imagine that it would work very well for large smart lawns either mulching as we do to save collection and movement / disposal of cuttings, or alternatively opting for the X950R which collects.

    The style and usability of the X949 is light years ahead of the Kubota that I last used. The features on the machine enable the operator to cut efficiently without compromising user or others safety. For me, the four wheel steer is perhaps the most useful feature that holds the machine above our old Kubota. This feature enables the mowing tractor to make extremely tight turns and park into and emerge from, spaces that you thought were simply not possible.

    If I was asked to suggest an improvement for the X949, I would struggle as it really does perform well and do everything that I require. Perhaps if I was pushed, I would say that the light switch is located in a position where I seem to knock it on with my knee on a regular basis. Whilst not a real problem, it does mean that it needs turning off regularly.

    Overall I would rate the X949 Mowing Tractor as 9.5/ 10. Masons Kings Chudleigh branch I would rate 9/ 10. They are ideally located for us and the site is easy and modern for the customer. Plenty of parking. Stock levels are excellent and the display areas are very smart, modern & clean. Our sales professional Lee Kirk scores 10/ 10 for his product knowledge, willingness to help and his apparent loyalty to the Masons Kings brand – all to be commended.

    If you are looking for a top of the range mulching grass cutter, then I would whole heartedly recommend the John Deere X949 Diesel Mowing Tractor.
