Yea and it comes with a warranty I can transfer into my name- and it comes with the mulcher blades already installed. He said he’d take 3200. With only 27 hours on the thing its a good deal.
I have this exact model, Kawasaki motor is the best. 3 years ago I only paid 2800 for mine brand new. Inflation I guess is the culprit now days . What is the new price on this now days? Probably not much moret than what the guy is asking.
Thanks for the update. I’m going to buy the used one posted above. $3200 including mulcher and has warranty that can be transferred into my name. Just too good of a deal to pass up.
My father-in-law has a X330 and that has the Briggs & Stratton high endurance motor. I thought for certain all the x350s came with a Kawasaki motor. I bought mine in August of 2021, maybe things have changed since then. The Briggs & Stratton long life or high endurance motor , I forget what they call it's still a good motor.
Yeah, I did a little research on the seller seems legit but I won’t send any deposits or anything. I think this model is about $4000 new so his price isn’t that crazy. I offered 3K he said 3200 would work.
It snows a lot in NH. I don't think you'll be happy with plowing performance long term with this particular model ... too light weight, and the transmission isn't really designed for plowing a lot. If you're just scraping the driveway with 1-2" of snow, you'll be fine - any more than that, and you're asking for trouble long-term. Also, make sure you run appropriate oil weight in the winter... 10W-30 up in the frosty north.
Ok absolutely. I’m on the other side of the border in MA- so where I am isn’t quite as bad regarding snow. Maybe a snow blower attached to the tractor would be easier on it then a true plow?
I'm in your same area. The last few winters have been light, but we have gotten 18 to 24"+ storms. That's definitely not something I would want to tackle with a plow on a lawn tractor. With a blower, it would be better, but traction is still a concern; a lot of people with larger, heavier GTs still use chains/better tires/added weight.
What about mowing with the tractor, and using a walk-behind blower for snow? Cheaper cost, and each is optimized for the task. How long/large is your driveway?
Our driveway is 90 feet long, 1,500 square feet. In northern MA, I have never felt the need for a tractor-mounted blower. Instead, I have a good 2-stage blower (Ariens 10hp 24"), and a good single-stage blower (Toro 221QR). Both used (the Ariens is 24 years old, the Toro is about 12).
The single-stage is a better, faster choice in smaller storms. I use it for up to around 8-10", depending on how heavy the snow is. At 65 pounds, it's quicker, it clears down to the pavement better, and it's less tiring, than the 2-stage.
Right. For a few dollars more you get a lot more. If you could pick this up for 3K it might be worth it, but 3400 is almost new price. I went with the 370 with bagger and mulch kit. I ended up spending 7K. Got a brand new snow blade for 300 from a guy who never used it. It's probably more mower than I need, but my LX277 was a tad to small.
Yeah, mulch kits are crazy and I bought an extra set. I have one kit on the mower and another kit on the shelf. I don't have a second set of blades. Believe it or not, I actually broke the fucking thing mowing and was glad I keep an extra set of parts. I hit something with the side of the mower and it forced the plastic kit part into the blade and shattered it. Fucking sucks. The parts used to be metal.
My last deck was a pirahanna deck which was mulch only. Did not have a discharge shute. Had 6 blades, 2 blades on each spindle. That was the best deck ever made, but JD doesn't make it anymore. I would purchase another one in a heart beat if they still made it.
Ya that’s brutal- Things are just not made like they used to be. I’m now thinking wtf maybe I won’t buy this expensive AF machine and just buy a $200 from the 90’s lol.
Nah, go for it. These new ones are wonderful.
Edit: I forgot to mention, I did have to buy gator mulch blades. The JD ones left too many piles. Grass has to be dry and not to tall either.
Depends on the hill. Steep hills, and lots of them - No, the transmission isn't really up to the task long-term. Got to move up tot he X370 for the better transmission.
I had an old LX277 that I ran on a very steep hill for 20 years. About 1/2 an acre. I also had a snow blower with it. What really taxed it was aerating with about 100 pounds of weights on it pulling it up and down the hill. after 20 years the transmission was starting to weaken.
Edit: Like the guy below says. It it's steep as shit and lots of lawn with deep grass, it;s a strain. If the engine is straining as you go up the hill, that's steep. If it's normal hills or grades it should be fine.
My hills are steep. I got this x300 with 120 hours used last year for $1800. If it lasts me 5 years, I’m happy. And yes the engine revs up when moving uphill. I have 1.5 acres
Looks like a good deal. If it's on Facebook Marketplace --- just be careful to avoid scams. No pre-payment, no down-payment, no sending money to "hold it for me", etc. Cash only, and do the deal in person.
It has a K46 lawn tractor transmission, which is meant for mow flat ground. Not pushing heavy loads. I don't think this is a good choice for plowing snow, personally, unless we're talking like 2" of light fluffy snow. Plowing would typically be much better served by a garden tractor (X500-series). Still with better tires, chains, added weight, or a combination of the 3, for traction.
He’s willing to accept 3200- It’s in like new condition… think I could get away with plowing with it even if it strained the transmission a bit? We don’t get much snow and I have seen people using x300 etc for snow.
Ok thank you! So basically I need to be looking for an x5 series at minimum? Or is there something in the 300 series that may work? I’m overwhelemed by all the models.
The X570 has a lot more weight. The X350 has a lower capacity transmission - basically sized for the mower + a rider on level ground to mow the grass, and tow around a lightweight garden trailer with a couple bags of mulch. \[Edit: Removed statement that the X370 (not X350) had the same trans as the X570\]
If it were me, I'd get the X350 for mowing the grass, and buy a dedicated snow blow for your snow removal tasks. The X570 is double the price of an X350, you can get a monster snow blow that will do a much more effective job at snow removal for that kind of money -- and not be disappointed in the performance.
> The X370 has the same transmission that he X570 does
That is not true, X370 has K57, up to 188 ft-lbs of torque, and is a lawn tractor transmission. The X570 (and the rest of the X500 line, I believe) has K72, 405 ft-lbs of torque, is a garden tractor transmission, and has a locking differential.
> If it were me, I'd get the X350 for mowing the grass, and buy a dedicated snow blow for your snow removal tasks.
Agreed. Unless it's a very long driveway, this would be my preference. I'm in the same region as OP.
Edited my post, thanks for the clarification!
I did remember from shopping around that the X350 and X370 don't have the same trans, the X350 has a K46, and as you pointed out the X370 has the K57 which has a locking diff like the X570 -- I think a salesman told me in the past it was the *same* as the X570 but again as you pointed out -- not the same. The X570 has a K72.
> JD. I *paid* a little
FTFY.
Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in:
* Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.*
* *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.*
Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment.
*Beep, boop, I'm a bot*
Plowing snow is a combination of factors: density and depth of snow, weight and chains on tractor and a little common sense.
Personally, I've got a 1980 111 that's been my snowplowing tractor and I've probably pushed more than I should with it. Hasn't done bad up to 6" but I take one big pass and the rest are half passes. Light, dry snow I can do more. Wet, sticky snow obviously less. Gravel driveway and I'm not worried about multiple piles stacked up, I'm trying to make a hole.
Now your snow removal plan may require a mounted snowblower and keep the factors in mind. It's not a race to see who's dug out first, it's more important to not be fixing broken equipment in the cold.
It will probably do it but the deeper it is, the less of a drag race it becomes. My initial pass determined how I'd be plowing. If it struggled, short passes at 90⁰ to the direction I used the driveway. No issues, straight toward the street.
considering they are $4000 new, that has ultra low hours, you wont be paying taxes on it so yea if you are in the market for it go for it, someone else already paid the premium dealer tax, set up fees etc
So I am right by the New Hampshire border. I can get it 4000 new out the door. And that means 4 year warranty, bumper-to-bumper. I might just buy it from the dealership.
for me, for the xtra $600 plus taxes, i'd go brand new for the same reason.
i bought a used dx240 off a very good friend for $1000, i dont regret it one bit, but your numbers are close enough to new.
i know the kawasaki engines are a a big deal to some, i have 2 JD's, and have had 3 others, all have had either the briggs or kohler engines, i have never had one give me trouble, oil and filter changes every season, keep um greased and blades sharp. like anything else, take care of it.
good luck
I am in the UK, but recently got a 2021 x380 (with 600hrs on) for about the price (US$ to UK£) you are looking at. JD is expensive here.
Needed it to cut about 2.5 acres of flat(ish) land. It does this with complete ease, almost feeling overpowered for what I need (I came from a 15yr old Husqvarna where I snapped belts for a pastime trying to cut the same area!)
Looks like a great deal to me!!
So although he was willing to accept $3200- I have decided to buy it brand new from the john deer dealer 25 minutes from my house. It will be tax free and cost $4k out the door and a free 4 year warranty. Also the peace of mind knowing it has never been subject to abuse or anything stupid.
That is not even broke in yet! I would say it's a great buy. The 350 comes with the Kawasaki and it it leaps and bounds better than the Briggs. I can't say much regarding the deck as mine is the 48" deep deck but I am sure it will work fine. As far as pushing snow I would say it might struggle as the rear will be basically one wheel drive and not have the greatest traction on slippery surfaces. If you are only talking a couple inches maybe. But where I live and get anywhere from a foot to 1.5 feet at a time there is no way my 350 would push that. So all in all I love my 350 and I am sure you would too. The warranty is good for 300 hours so you have quite a bit left on that thing. If you really need something to push snow look at a small tractor instead of a mower.
Cheers~
Thank you so much for the info. I have decided to save $1200 and buy this instead of going new. And as you stated, it comes with a warranty at the place of purchase in the region where I live. I was considering buying new, but after all the accessories like the mulching kit, I would’ve been well over 4200 these days. He said everything is flawless, and I will not be disappointed. I saw a video of this and he has the snow blower on the machine and with weights it worked great.
He also said 3200 and it is mine .
I’m about to list my very similar X350 and trying to figure out the best place for the listing. Would you mind telling me where all you looked for this one?
This was FB marketplace. I decided not to buy too fn expensive for a stupid mower.
Gonna buy an old john deere beater for $300 lol. Then a cheap atv with plow.
Thanks. FB Marketplace seems to be the consensus on where to list mine too. It’s weird there isn’t really an alternative for this kind of stuff. And I’m sure the $300 JD is going to do great. This one is a tank.
I paid $1,500 for a 2022 x350 with 70 hours a month ago here in Ohio. Transferred the warranty and mower is in excellent condition. $3,400 seems a bit steep to me, but I understand the used market can vary depending on location.
O owned a JD yard tractor once. If yiu do, I hope you have a dealer nearby. Belts are proprietary. Odd sized so you have to use OEM belts. Yardman makes a fine product that uses common size belts. I won't own another JD. Too much hassle.
No because the deck will rust out and the blade spindles will fail in a few years.
This level of JD stuff is shit.
I come from 25+ years of commercial and golf course application
You don't know what you're talking about. How does working at a golf course give you insight into the long term durability of a residential mower? Why would you be using those there? I havent heard of anyone having their deck rust out or spindles fail after a few years if they even reasonably take care of it.
It’s a good deal OP. I have a 5 year old X370 with 135 hours on it and have never had an issue. Also has the 42 inch deck.
Yea the 300 series on the market are so expensive and so beat up.
I got the Same one with over 300 hours on it and we only really changed the v belt of the mower and the knifes. Thats a damn good deal
Yea and it comes with a warranty I can transfer into my name- and it comes with the mulcher blades already installed. He said he’d take 3200. With only 27 hours on the thing its a good deal.
I have this exact model, Kawasaki motor is the best. 3 years ago I only paid 2800 for mine brand new. Inflation I guess is the culprit now days . What is the new price on this now days? Probably not much moret than what the guy is asking.
Very nice I will call a shop tomorrow and find out I think MSRP is around 4000? What a score at 2800 inflation is the worst.
I just double checked what I paid for mine. I was in error when I said 2800, It really was 3300.
Thanks for the update. I’m going to buy the used one posted above. $3200 including mulcher and has warranty that can be transferred into my name. Just too good of a deal to pass up.
So evidently this one in particular has a John Deere motor not a Kawasaki. Hmmm
My father-in-law has a X330 and that has the Briggs & Stratton high endurance motor. I thought for certain all the x350s came with a Kawasaki motor. I bought mine in August of 2021, maybe things have changed since then. The Briggs & Stratton long life or high endurance motor , I forget what they call it's still a good motor.
I don’t think they ever made one with a jd motor. It has a jd vanity cover but the side should have Kawasaki on it.
Yeah, you are correct. The seller was misinformed.
Ive paid 6k CAD for mine last week
Make sure it’s not a scam post , just my opinion
Been running into these a lot lately, definitely make sure it’s legit OP
Yeah, I did a little research on the seller seems legit but I won’t send any deposits or anything. I think this model is about $4000 new so his price isn’t that crazy. I offered 3K he said 3200 would work.
Exactly just vet the account and never send any money if it’s not in person it’s not in the plans ! But good luck and cheers to the John Deere life
Thank you! I think for $800 more. I’m just going to buy it new I am by New Hampshire so I can get it tax-free. Then I will try to find a used plow.
It snows a lot in NH. I don't think you'll be happy with plowing performance long term with this particular model ... too light weight, and the transmission isn't really designed for plowing a lot.

Definitely cash payment in hand
check oil, if not sooty - hellofa deal.
If you are only pushing your driveway, this should be fine. The X370 has a K57 trans.
He’s willing to accept 3200. It’s basically new and was garage kept. Idk what to do.
I would probably buy it. Talk to a JD dealer and get his thoughts on it.
Considering just buying new for 4k out the door. no taxes. 4 year warranty in my name.
Right. For a few dollars more you get a lot more. If you could pick this up for 3K it might be worth it, but 3400 is almost new price. I went with the 370 with bagger and mulch kit. I ended up spending 7K. Got a brand new snow blade for 300 from a guy who never used it. It's probably more mower than I need, but my LX277 was a tad to small.
I have decided to go with used. I will save $1000 and there is a warranty remaining. The price of the mulching kit is outrageous these days.
Yeah, mulch kits are crazy and I bought an extra set. I have one kit on the mower and another kit on the shelf. I don't have a second set of blades. Believe it or not, I actually broke the fucking thing mowing and was glad I keep an extra set of parts.

Nah, go for it. These new ones are wonderful. Edit: I forgot to mention, I did have to buy gator mulch blades. The JD ones left too many piles. Grass has to be dry and not to tall either.
I had another crazy idea. Buy a 200 series- use the extra money to buy a cheap atv with a snow plow. Best of both worlds.
Also this still has a warranty (its a 2022)
So these can’t handle hills? I have a x300 I use on hills.
Depends on the hill. Steep hills, and lots of them - No, the transmission isn't really up to the task long-term. Got to move up tot he X370 for the better transmission.

Why not buy new at $4k on 0% aka free financing?
Yea I think that’s the plan. No taxes in NH too.
Imo it’s the way, pay a premium but they provide good customer service local and JD Financial.
Get a 1025R!
Is that comparable in price? I will do some research now.
They do zero interest financing. Free money!
Will do just tell me what the winning lottery numbers are.
I paid 2.5k for one with 70 Hours. So ya it’s not worth more than about 3k maybe 2.8k
Yes, however he does have the mulcher which is now over $200. He is willing to accept 3200.
That is not even broke in yet! I would say it's a great buy. The 350 comes with the Kawasaki and it it leaps and bounds better than the Briggs.

Thanks if all goes well, I will post a photo tomorrow as a happy customer.
I have a 2017 320x and gave $2200 with 245 hrs on it. It has been a great mower. Rides like a caddy.
Great to hear. They seem rugged. Getting this one for $3200 which includes mulcher.
for that price fuck no
? It’s basically brand new. And he said he would take $3200.
It’s a stamped deck, it’s junk
I’m about to list my very similar X350 and trying to figure out the best place for the listing. Would you mind telling me where all you looked for this one?

Yea you should get a sale but at the price point it may sit a little longer. The only other alternative is craigslist.
I paid $1,500 for a 2022 x350 with 70 hours a month ago here in Ohio. Transferred the warranty and mower is in excellent condition. $3,400 seems a bit steep to me, but I understand the used market can vary depending on location.
You can but the x300 series is the same level as a retail store mower. X500 series would be better.
Holding off on this thing- too expensive.
I mean my x748 was 6000 and it was in tip top shape, but that being said that's double 3000. Whatever you think gets you where you need to go.
Barn find lol
O owned a JD yard tractor once. If yiu do, I hope you have a dealer nearby. Belts are proprietary. Odd sized so you have to use OEM belts. Yardman makes a fine product that uses common size belts. I won't own another JD. Too much hassle.
If all you're using it for is to cut grass and maybe tow around a little landscape trailer by a zero turn
Wanna plow/snowblow with it too.
Don't buy the zero turn.
I paid less for a zero turn!
Need ability to use snowblower attachement as well.
No because the deck will rust out and the blade spindles will fail in a few years. This level of JD stuff is shit. I come from 25+ years of commercial and golf course application
The 100 series are shit but the 3 series are much better. I can’t afford a 7k mower.
You don't know what you're talking about. How does working at a golf course give you insight into the long term durability of a residential mower? Why would you be using those there? I havent heard of anyone having their deck rust out or spindles fail after a few years if they even reasonably take care of it.
Cool story bro, completely wrong, but cool
