See It In Action
Real walkarounds, owner updates and expert reviews — see the APEX 52 in action before you buy.
Product Features
A 52-in. ENVY™ Elite fabricated deck, 5½-in. deep and built from 10-gauge steel, is engineered for airflow and lift — a durable, high-capacity deck for demanding properties.
The 23 hp / 726 cc Kawasaki® FR691V engine brings commercial-grade power to the APEX 52, paired with Hydro-Gear® ZT-3100® transaxles for confident speed and control.
A fully tubular steel frame with self-adjusting belt technology stands up to daily use, while a high-back padded seat and armrests keep operators comfortable all day.
The foot-operated deck lift makes raising and lowering the 15-position deck quick and easy, so you spend more time mowing and less time adjusting.

I purchased an APEX 52 with bagger kit. This mower is mighty — it chews through thick grass without bogging down. Can't imagine doing that with anything smaller. This mower is like a multi-tool Swiss Army knife.

I bought this mower and now have over 1400 hours of operation on it. It is a high quality product, remarkable engine and drivetrain, and very powerful for its size. I mow about 7 acres a week with it. After 8 years it still delivers reliable service.

I purchased this mower last July and can't believe I lived without one this long! Ease of use, operator friendly, very good power and excellent fuel economy. If you're debating between models, spend the extra money on the APEX — you won't regret it.

Great workhorse! Overall straightforward and reliable, easy to maintain, and great for the variety of small jobs I have. Six months in and using it regularly — it hasn't missed a beat.

Love the mower and the features. Such a comfortable riding machine. Plenty of power for mowing, and the ride quality on rough ground is far better than I expected.

I was new to using zero-turns and I like this one because of the ergonomics. Ariens service has been the greatest on explanation and repairs. Just a great all-around machine.

Nice mower, it has good power and a strong drivetrain. Service at my dealer has been excellent — parts department great, sales super.

We run 12 acres with pasture, woods and a long gravel lane. The APEX 52 handles it all without complaint, and the deck goes to work fast when it's time to mow. The heavier frame makes a real difference compared to my old mower.

This mower has been fantastic on my property. Starts every morning without hesitation and cuts a beautiful stripe.

Mowing hay fields, brush hogging the back field — this thing does everything I ask and never feels strained. The independent PTO-style deck engagement makes mowing effortless.

Coming from a smaller deck, the extra frame weight and power are immediately noticeable. It still fits through my barn door and turns tight enough to mow around trees.

Fantastic mower and very well built. Fuel economy has been better than my old gas mower.
