Grasshopper Mowers top turf product brand by dealers

Posted on:Oct 5, 2022

MOUNDRIDGE, Kan. - Grasshopper Mowers, the turf equipment brand sold worldwide and manufactured exclusively in Moundridge, was awarded the top Outdoor Power Equipment Manufacturer in a survey of dealerships across the United States and Canada.

Dealers vote on a number of categories, including Product Quality, Product Technical Support, Product Availability, and Parts Availability. These are all areas in which Grasshopper leads all grounds maintenance brands including zero turn mowers, handheld trimmers and engines.

“To score high on Product Quality and Product Technical Support indicates the dealers’ appreciation that we offer products they feel proud to offer to their customers,” said Trent Guyer of Grasshopper.

Manufacturing a Grasshopper mower in Moundridge starts with machining and fabricating everything from the unit frames to the decks and most of the parts in-between. Next, humans and robots weld those parts before they are powder painted for durability, all leading to final assembly and off to dealerships worldwide. Production is based on constant feedback from the field, whether those are end-user customers, retailing dealers or representatives, as has been the practice for decades.
