Excellent Value, May 16, 2008
By murg from Pennsylvania

Perfect for my use, April 21, 2008
By Handylady from Denver area

"I am using this as a replacement seat for my recumbent bicycle. This is so much better than the original, and a great price. Had to adapt the mounting holes, but worked out fine."

Great Replacement, April 21, 2008
By Westmassguy from Feeding Hills, MA

"Bought this for my aging Toro 70" Professional Reel Mower, which had the old style Tractor seat. This new seat is very comfortable. I'm buying a second to replace the oem seat on my MTD riding mower."

Very comfortable but one issue, April 14, 2008
By tennesseetoro from Franklin, Tennessee

"This seat is a lot more comfortable than the factory seat that came on my Toro Wheel Horse 12-38XL lawn tractor. The high back and shape of the seat make it very comfortable. One minor issue is that the seat is stamped "Cub Cadet," but that's of no real consequence. I also had to do some minor modification to make the seat's mounting holes line up with the mounting plate.

I am disappointed, however, in that the seat has no provision for concealing and making functional the engine-kill switch that was embedded in the original seat. I plan to modify the seat to accept the switch but haven't gotten to that yet."

Very nice seat, but had to return it., July 9, 2007
By 17349 from Ken of New Freedom, Pennsylvania

"I based my decision on that it was a 4 bolt mount(internet write up) and that one of the other write ups said that they received a Cub Cadet seat, which was great since I too have a Cub Cadet. What I received was a 3 bolt mount Craftsman seat and the two widest wholes would even align up with my Cub Cadet mounting(not to mention that the third was out in no whereland).
My advice to anyone who is looking to purchase one of these seats is to be aware that they are from surplus stock and that you could receive a Cub Cadet(with a 4 bolt mount) one, a Craftsman(3 bolt mount), or anything else that could be in stock at the time.
The returns department was extremely nice and understanding of my situation and allowed me to return it, even after several months had gone by. With customer service like this, I will deal with them again in the future.
The quality of the seat was beyond my expectation and the customer service in the returns department was even better yet, WOW!"

Garden Tractor Seat, November 16, 2006
By Buddy from Camden,New York

"Great garden tractor seat. Was supposed to be a generic seat but received with Cub Cadet molded into the vinyl. That was ok since my tractor is a Cub Cadet. Very comfortable. Better than the original seat.Was fairly easy to mount to tractor. Had to do some drilling and alignment since the bolt pattern was different than the original seat."
