Conquer your yard work with the CRAFTSMAN 42″ Gas Riding Lawn Mower, designed for durability, precision, and comfort. Powered by a 17.5 HP Briggs & Stratton single-cylinder engine*, this dependable riding mower delivers consistent performance, easy starting, and clean cutting power to make lawn maintenance fast and effortless.

The rugged 42-inch stamped steel cutting deck covers large areas efficiently — up to 2 acres — while offering the option to add a mulching kit (sold separately) for a professional-grade finish. With a tight 18-inch turning radius, you’ll easily maneuver around trees, flower beds, and landscape features for a clean, even cut across your yard.

A 7-speed manual transmission puts complete control at your fingertips, letting you adjust your speed for mowing, hauling, or navigating uneven terrain.
