I have the ISX 2200 28 hp vanguard with the Vanguard oil system. 3 years and not a single issue, though I hate the 30$ price tag for the oil filters. I’ve been using XHT blades for many years on many machines. Great blades and decent price.

Hey Brian thanks for your comment. I searched for those blades and cannot find them. Are you in the US or Australia? If it’s kind if you can send me a link I’ll try these blades and see how many hrs I can get out of them.

Cheers thank you can’t go wrong with the 800

Try Copperhead blades. I have used them for the past 12 years and have gotten very good service from them.

Great review! Thinking of getting a Ferris myself. Do you ever wish you had more HP? I have 5+ acres to mow and was looking at getting an isx3300 with 40hp. However the isx800 is much cheaper and may be enough for my needs. Any thoughts?

Thanks for commenting you can get the isx800 in a 61’ deck, never wish for more power just a bigger deck

5+ acres, I’d at least get the 2200 with the Vanguard oil system. Mine is 28 hp, which is more than adequate, and You get that nice adjustable suspension seat. 👍👍🇺🇸

I do 10 acres at my place and mow another 10 acres for some one else, would love to get a 2200 but all comes down to money, would love to get a 2200 for a second mower to even out the hard work. Thanks for watching👍🏻

Good review. I am considering the ISX800 with the Kaw engine. My 20 y/old Bobcat is needing valve seals and I can buy a new Ferris for under 11k.

Good one, I never new that they come out with kaws as Briggs and Stratton own it, other than that big upgrade from the old bobcat

I have a is600 with 1275 hours only problem was bolts holding engine to the frame broke

Let me know if your spindle goes out about 900 hrs

Which spindle goes out there is 3 how often do you grease it up?

@@AussieBucking I believe it was the right side first. We have 7 mowers, and I service them, one mower a day before we go out. Sharpen the blades, oil, blow out the breather, and grease everything up. All once a week for each mower. The spindles take a lot of grease.

Seat falling apart I think the old fella might be getting a bit old. Lol

Very few Chinesium parts on these. You’d be pretty hard pressed to find anything that has none. You might find some other pretty decent mowers, but You won’t find any better than Ferris.
