Title: Which Ride On Lawn Mowers should I keep in stock in Buriram?
Post by: Pichai on September 23, 2015, 12:34:15 PM
This Monday I shipped out the last made in the USA Troy Bilt Pony riding lawn mower to home owner living near Nang Rong. I contacted the importer of Craftsman Lawn Tractors | Orec Brush Mowers | Troy Bilt Ride On lawn mowers to see what is actually on the ground in Thailand and available to stock in Buriram at my family owned hardware store.  The input from the Buriram Expats on what size ride on lawn mowers is much appreciated.  I've been told that the Orec Brush Mowers are designed and made in Japan, that the Craftsman are made in the USA and that the Troy Bilt ride on lawn mowers are made in the USA with Briggs & Stratton engines.  I certainly have in stock a slew of push and self propelled moderately priced normal gasoline and electric lawn mowers from Sakari | Bosch | Makita | Honda | Briggs & Stratton | Rapter.  I will no longer order Talon lawn mowers due to recent challenges in spare parts from the new importer of Talon garden products.
 The updated list of what RIDE ON lawn mowers are in stock this week in Thailand at the exclusive importer of these three brands.
We have Troy Bilt T30R 13.5 hp 30 inch cutting deck  7 units in stock
            Troy Bilt TB2654   26hp   54 inch cutting deck   4 units  in stock
            Craftsman T3200  22hp  with a 48" cutting deck   5 units in stock
            OREC RM83G   83 cm  cutting deck 2 units in stock
            OREC RM88  88 cm cutting deck  4 units in stock

I have a standing order for the Troy Bilt Pony 17.5 hp 42" cutting deck when it arrives again in Thailand from the USA.  I would appreciate any suggestions from Buriram Expats as to which of the other ride on lawn mowers would prove worthwhile for Ruangsangthai to keep in stock in Buriram.  I only will order models that have an optional grass catcher available in Thailand for those gardeners who value a grass catcher.  I always price lawn mowers and brush cutters less than the Buriram Home Pro | Buriram Global House | Buriram Thai Watsadu | Buriram Home Mart | Buriram IQ House if they have the exact same brand and model.  I passed on several high margin Chinese designed and Chinese made brands with Euro sounding names as my tool repair department as seen the build quality of these unknown brands.

My 'lawn' is around 35m2 and I do not need a motorized lawnmower as these are too big and too complex to operate.

I would like to buy a small and hand pushed mower. Do you have these in stock and if what would be the price.

Thank you for the reply. I certainly have in stock the no fuel, no cord, no motor, rotary push lawn mower. It is under 3000 baht. Designed and manufactured in China. None have come back for repair. We can sharpen the lawn mower blades. The Talon push rotary lawn mower doubles as an exercise machine for a Thai Spouse. No need to buy the "as seen on TV" exercise machine, when a Buriram expat can provide their spouse with this amazing grass mower that needs no cords or fuel.

Six Ride On lawn mowers are on order for Buriram Ruangsangthai thanks to the input of forum members. I also received a shipment of genuine made in the USDA Briggs & Stratton spare parts this Monday for 4 stroke Briggs & Stratton lawn mower engines. Some parts are only 90 baht each, but are important items to keeping quality lawn mowers running at their best performance.  Mr, Shaun Burke the 15 year Bangkok managing director of UK based Cromwell Tools visited my Buriram Hardware store on Monday afternoon. He and Mr. Moses Lopez spoke of his recent hip replacement surgery in Thailand as well as quality Cromwell carpentry and machine tools to have in stock this November at my family owned hardware store. Mr. Bob was very interested in other products from Grainger Supply, the new owner of Cromwell Tools. The European Director of Lanko Building products will be visiting Ruangsangthai next week and that bodes well for expanded displays of Lanko and ParexGroup products and more brochures in English. A sincere THANK YOU to the Buriram expats who pm me with suggestions, who telephone my mobile number and best of all those men who visit the store and speak to me directly.

Today a shipment of genuine Troy Bilt Ride On Pony lawn Mowers arrived at Ruangsangthai in Buriram. These garden lawn mowers are manufactured in Jackson, Michigan in the United State of America. I also now have in stock the optional rear grass catcher for this popular riding lawn mower. This week I will have two of these Briggs & Stratton powered lawn mowers set up and on display at the front of Ruangsangthai facing Highway 2074.  No other store in Buriram to my knowledge keeps this made in the USA model ride on lawn mower in stock in January 2016. I also bought oil filters and belts to keep on stock for this popular Troy Bilt grass mower.

To answer your original question on which lawn mowers you should keep in stock:

I avoid Craftsman Lawnmowers, Sears controls the craftsman logo and they contract out for producing these mowers.  There have been times when the Sears switched contractors making some parts for the old mower difficult to get. 


Recommend you checkout John Deere, they are selling these in the USA at Lowes and Home Depot.  I had a Deere riding mower for 14 years before it started to give out.  I get a deal on a relatively new Craftsman, and I hated it.  Went back and bought another Deere.

I also had a large John Deere for about 10 years, riding it about 12 hours a week, excellent. Not the cheapest machine around but I could do nearly all maintenance and repairs myself. I would go for a Honda these days.

The importer of John Deere ride on lawn mowers in Thailand has informed me today that the John Deere D-105 is not currently in Thailand. I'll be frank, MTD makes this model and the wholesale price is steep compared to the Troy Bilt I stock and service. If any Buriram expats wish to pay in the neighborhood of 199K for the John Deere D-105, which is NOT made at a John Deere farm tractor factory, I'll gladly order this product. In the meantime I am pleased to announce the Troy Bilt Pony is in stock, with spare parts, with the grass catcher installed and on display in Buriram at Ruangsangthai. It is displayed next to the Honda HRJ216KS self propelled lawn mowers and Honda Inverter Generators. If you compare the specifications of the Troy Bilt Pony and the John Deere D-105 you can see why I regularly sell the Troy Bilt ride on lawn mower to Buriram expats and Thai residents.

The importer of Troy Bilt and Briggs & Stratton lawn mowers is offering free wash and polish of any Briggs & Stratton Ride On lawn Mowers bought between today and next Thursday. These four Buriram female models seem familiar with soapy cleaning and polishing to a spit and shine.Hitachi does not currently import lawn mowers or lawn tractors into Thailand yet they import polishers that seem up for the task at hand.  These women seemed eager to pour coffee and demonstrate skills for the visitors to my family owned lawn mower and tool shop today in Buriram.

I have been given the opportunity to be the first store in Isaan Thailand to offer the made in the USA Troy Bilt Mustang 54 XP ZERO TURN ride on lawn mower. The Troy Bilt importer is offering me the zero turn with or without the grass catcher. I would like the opinion of Buriram Expats as to which model I should bring to Buriram. I sincerely appreciate the advise of the expats who have previous experience with zero turn lawn mowers and ride on mowers. The prices, while not inexpensive, of Troy Bilt are significantly less than Husqvarna similar lawn mowers in Thailand. I've attached a video link showing the assembly and testing of the Troy Bilt Zero Turn Mowers.  Thank you, Mr. Pichai.   [url=https://youtu.be/rXYibyvnTT0]]https://youtu.be/rXYibyvnTT0] (http://[/url)e attached a video link showing the assembly and testing of the Troy Bilt Zero Turn Mowers.  Thank you, Mr. Pichai.   https://youtu.be/rXYibyvnTT0 (https://youtu.be/rXYibyvnTT0)

Post by: Pichai on March 02, 2016, 06:00:27 PM
The CASH or bank transfer price of the Troy Bilt Mustang 54" in Buriram will be 195,990 without the bagger. The price of the Troy Bilt Mustang 54" with the bagger is 211,679 baht. Delivery is free in Buriram and Surin province. The Ruangsangthai cash price is 207,321 baht LESS than a similar model of Husqvarna   Below is from the Husqvarna dealer:



"We only have 1 x model Zero Turn in stock in Thailand at present and this is the EZ 17 truly professional machine 410,000 baht plus delivery 9,000 thb."

The fine folks at the Husqvarna Distributor Importer in Bangkok has NO Zero Turn Lawn Mowers in stock in Thailand. They will be getting the EZ17 zero turn grass mower. It will be sold for over 400,000 baht. The delivery fee from Bangkok was quoted as 24,000 baht to Surin Province. There is a Husqvarna R213C Ride On Mower in Stock in Bangkok that is selling for 290,000 PLUS VAT and PLUS delivery.  It should be clear to Buriram Expats why my low overhead family store has selected Troy Bilt as the line of Made in the USA Ride On Lawn Mower and Zero Turn Lawn Mowers to offer residents of Buriram and Thailand. Husqvarna is a fine brand, but the customers of Ruangsangthai often consider price in relationship to another brands offering.

While I offer free delivery in most locations of Buriram province and Surin province of Ride On Lawn Mowers I have arranged paid deliveries from the Troy Bilt exclusive importer based in Bangkok to several provinces in Thailand for Ruangsangthai customers who live a distance from my store. This weekend Mr. Robert who lives in Nokom Phanom near the border with Laos took home his new Troy Bilt Pony Ride On Lawn Mower in the back bed of his Isuzu pick up truck. The mower was tested and instructions given prior to careful packing for that seven hour drive to Nokom Phanom. Thank you Mr. Robert and enjoy your new Troy Bilt riding lawn mower and new Honda back pack brush cutter.

Pachai,


Keep the most economical.   Expats will buy more expensive provided there is guaranteed service.  So if your shop will personally guarantee that lawn mower, we will buy.  As like it is my understanding with my Honda Mower I bought, that your shop is the prime supplier.  If you fail to stand behind that mower you might as well close shop now. 


So I think you are on the right path with Troy Built and Honda, too bad you can't reasonably get Deere and that is my mower of choice.

I am the largest single buyer of Honda power products in Isaan. I buy 1000 Honda brush cutters at one time. That is two truck loads of the UMK435 and the popular Honda UMR435 Back pack brush cutter. Needless to say I stock quite a few of the replacement parts and consumables for the popular Honda HRJ216 self propelled lawn mower. Today my foreign sales staff sold two of the Troy Bilt "Elvis" 21" electric start lawn mowers.  Mr. California Bob has taken an active role in selecting lawn mowers to stock at Ruangsangthai. He badgers sales managers for deeper stock of spare parts on a regular basis.  I will put the hard working women of the Foreign Sales department of Ruangsangthia to assist in obtaining actual prices of John Deere Ride on Mowers that might be in stock in Thailand.  The web site was less than helpful:

Today Miss Gift in the "Expat Sales Department" of Ruangsangthai was sent a photo of the Saturday morning delivery of a made in the USA Troy Bilt Ride On Lawn mower bought from my store by a customer who lives in Phayao Province. Miss Gift arranged for direct delivery and a lawn mower demonstration to be provided by the exclusive importer of Briggs & Stratton | Troy Bilt and Snapper Lawn Mowers to Thailand. I have four Snapper lawn mowers set for delivery to Ruangsangthai next week. This model will be priced less than the Honda or Troy Bilt self propelled lawn mowers. Thank you for your support.

While the Snapper self propelled 20 inch lawn mower with a made in Milwaukee, Wisconsin USA Briggs & Stratton 190cc 650 series engine is not a Snapper Ride On mower or Zero Turn lawn mower it is now on show display at the front window of my family owned hardware store. This new Snapper lawn mower has a single point, 10 position height adjustment and ball bearing wheels. It is priced lower than the larger Honda HRJ216 self walking lawn mower and less than the Troy Bilt electric start lawn mower.  I have requested to have the Snapper zero turn mower that is made in the USA or the Troy Bilt zero Turn mower that is also made in the USA to be on display at the Buriram Home and Garden Expo in February 2017.  I will have brochures and prices shortly for actual zero turn mowers that are in stock on the ground in Thailand and available to be delivered to customers of Ruangsangthai at their home in Isaan, Thailand.  Thank you Buriram expats for making Ruangsangthai the highest volume single store dealer of Troy Bilt lawn mowers in Isaan, Thailand.

Two of the Elvis Troy Bilt made in the USA electric start lawn mowers have "left the building" so far this week. One Snapper and one Honda self propelled lawn mower were sold to expat customers on Wednesday. The grass seems to get taller every day in Buriram. In fact on Wednesday a Troy Bilt USA ride on lawn mower was delivered to a small village in Chaiyaphum by the Ruangsangthai supplier. At home service in any province of Thailand is available under the warranty and after the warranty period through the Troy Bilt authorized repair service when you buy a Troy Bilt or Snapper lawn mower from Ruangsangthai. I will have more details on the Troy Bilt Zero Turn Mower later this week. I have hired Mr. Nop to help with the store operations. He is able to fluently speak Thia and English and looks forward to assisting foreign born customers of Ruangsangthai.

Troy Bilt ride on lawn mower company which manufactures in the United States has made my Buriram Hardware store an attractive offer for one Troy Bilt TB 30 ride on lawn mower. This one model is the show model that was brought in a truck to home and garden shows in Thailand. It has never cut grass and is in perfect shape. This Troy Bilt lawn Mower can be delivered via a Rurangsangthai delivery truck or transported from Bangkok to any province in Thailand, not just North East Thailand. Warranty repair service and free warranty parts replacement are available by Troy Bilt trained mechanics at your home during the warranty period. Thank you Mr. Pichai.

The Troy Bilt made in the USA TB 30-R with grass catching bagger was sold and paid for this Friday morning by an active Buriram Expat who had Mr. California Bob's mobile phone number. I will post any more demo units that become available from Troy Bilt so that Buriram Expats forum members have the first opportunity to purchase these heavily discounted lawn tractors or ride on lawn mowers. If you have a need for professional welding of metal items that are NOT complicated, consider the services of my Buriram Welding Fabricators. Work Benches, Special warehouse pallets, and shop tables have proven popular for Buriram expats. It is a genuine help if you bring the dimensions in Metric form. A service my Buriram Government Liaison staffer, Mr. Bobby,  offers is expediting formal government approval for home building plans, petrol storage tanks and similar paperwork in Buriram Thailand.

Two more Troy Bilt made in the USA lawn mowers were sold this Friday at Ruangsangthai Hardware Store in Buriram. The electric start variable speed Troy Bilt that is manufactured in Tupelo, Mississippi was taken away in the back of a Toyota SUV. The Troy Bilt T 30 R ride on lawn mower will be delivered to a Buriram expat on Saturday morning by my lawn mower team who can demonstrate all the features of this affordable riding lawn mower in Thai to the wife of the expat.  Four Makita electric lawn mowers were ordered today for my family owned low overhead Thailand builders merchant store.

Two different customers requested delivery with a ribbon of the Troy Bilt Ride on Lawn Tractor for Saturday. I will order more of this top selling model of a made in the USA Ride on Lawn Mower which has enabled Ruangsangthai to have lawn mower customers in most all provinces in Thailand.

Friday my family owned Hardware Store was sent two walking Makita 4 stroke petrol lawn mowers. These two quality Makita lawn mowers meet the Isaan expat requests for a rock solid name brand 4 stroke lawn mower that does not include the self propelled function. This moderately priced Makita lawn mower is powered by a Briggs & Stratton 158cc engine.  There is a radical difference in the build quality and design features of this genuine Makita petrol lawn mower than the off brand lawn mowers I see on offer at the chain stores in Buriram. Parts for Makita lawn mowers sold by Ruangsangthai are  readily available. Lawn Mower blades, air filters, spark plugs, and selected cables are generally in stock in the parts department of Buriram Ruangsangthai. Good luck on getting parts for the off brand lawn mowers designed in some non Japanese nations.  Mr. California Bob will be spending two days at the Makita Tools assembly plant in Tambon Bowin, Amphur Sriracha, Chonburi Province next month. He has a mission to see Ruangsangthai order the largest selection of Makita Tools at the lowest prices on offer in Buriram province.

New shipments of home building materials, power tools, water pumps and lawn mowers are arriving each day at my family owned Builders merchant Store in Buriram in preparation for the 3rd ever Buriram Home Garden Expo Open Day in April 2017.  Today the German Garden Tool Company Wolf Garten shipped two models of the less expensive electric lawn mowers designed in Germany and manufactured in the same nation as Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd assembles Apple iPhones. The German Colors are striking on the Wolf Garten S 3800 E lawn mower and the compact easy to handle Wolf Garten S 3200 E electric lawn mower.  These compact electric lawn mowers make the Makita electric lawn mower I stock in Buriram and ship to provinces all over Thailand look like a Monster Truck.

I noted today the electric cable for the new German Brand Wolf Garten are made in Germany to a higher spec than most electric cables I have seen at the Buriram Home Pro | Buriram Global House | Buriram Thai Watsadu.  I do NOT sell electric cables made in China or made in Vietnam.  The vast majority of the electric cords and electric cable sold at Ruangsangthai are made in Thailand and have "Thai Standards certification".  Thank you for your support. Please see Mr. Nop | Mr. Bob | Miss Gift | Miss Jaew or Miss Mai for VIP tickets to the Buriram Home Garden Expo.

Ariens, which is manufactured under contract by Husqvarna in the USA with a 22hp Briggs & Stratton USA engine arrived at Ruangsangthai Hardware in Buriram, Thailand today. This Ride On Lawn Mower has a 46" cutting deck. One year warranty. It includes the grass catcher. List price is 265,000 baht.  I have discounted this riding lawn mower to 184,990 baht including VAT and including the grass catcher.
In May 2017 I will also receive several Troy Bilt Pony 17,5hp 42" cutting deck mowers and a larger Craftsman ride on lawn tractor. Representatives from Ariens, Troy Bilt, Briggs & Stratton will be at respective show booths starting on Monday April 3rd through Sunday April 9th.   Thank you, Mr. Pichai

Four brand new Troy Bilt Pony ride on lawn mowers garden tractors arrived at Ruangsangthai today in Buriram. These riding lawn mowers are manufactured in Martin, Tennessee and shipped in wooden crates to Bangkok, Thailand and then trucked to Ruangsangthai in Isaan. Mr. Bob, Miss Gift and Miss Jaew arrange for local delivery at my hardware store or for shipment fully assembled to any province in Thailand.  This lawn mower has a genuine made in the USA Briggs & Stratton 17.5hp engine. Other stores in Buriram might stock a lawn mower the same color, but not the same engine size nor proof of the engine being manufactured in the USA.  The grass catcher on the Troy Bilt lawn mower is manufactured in the same nation as Cabo Wabo Tequila. Larger ride on mowers are now available and in stock at Ruangsangthai including the Airens ride on mower made in the USA by Husqvarna. I order the 54" larger Craftsman and 54"  Troy Bilt mowers with each confirmed purcahse. The zero turn Mustang Troy Bilt Mower is also available now for immediate delivery through Ruangsangthai to any amphur in Buriram or province in Thailand. Thank you for your support and allowing my family owned builders merchant store in Buriram to offer longer lasting lawn mowers to expats and Thai citizens.

Today you can see and test drive two different USA manufactured ride on lawn mowers in Buriram Thailand. I have several other lawn mowers in the wooden crates ready for shipment or final assembly. The 22hp made in USA engine is on the Ariens branded ride on lawn mower. Several expats tell me this is also sold in Australia as a Husqvarna ride on mower. The Troy Bilt Pony has the 17.5hp Briggs & Stratton engine and the optional grass catcher attached. I sell this model for 20K LESS than Homepro. My store has trained mechanics who can service ride on lawn mowers and traditional push or walking lawn mowers. See Mr. Nop | Miss Gift | Miss Jaew or Mr. California Bob for prices of larger more powerful garden tractors and zero turn ride on mowers.  Thank you for your support.

The Ariens 46" ride on lawn mower made in the USA by Husqvarna with a genuine USA Briggs & Stratton 22hp engine was delivered this morning to a Buriram expat. I sent a representative of Ariens with the Ruangsangthai delivery team to go over all the features of this powerful riding lawn mower. I have placed an order today for another  22hp made in USA riding lawn mower.

There are none of the small TB30 currently in Thailand. There are no plans for the exclusive importer of Troy Bilt ride on mowers to buy and import any of this model. The smaller ride on mowers did not sell well in Thailand according to the importer. How large is the lawn you are cutting?  I do have three genuine Honda HRJ216K2 self propelled lawn mowers in stock today in Buriam Thailand. I do have three Troy Bilt Pony 17.5hp ride on mowers in stock today at my family owned store located in Buriram. I also stock the MT brand of village lawn mower with a genuine made in Thailand Honda GX160 four stroke engine. I suggest to customers to buy the model with a safety kill switch installed. This village style grass mower is not self propelled, but it is affordable. Thank you Mr. Pichai.

On November 4th 2016 a Buriram Expat native of Alabama purchased the last Troy Bilt TB 30 ride on mower that was remaining in the stock of the Bangkok importer of Troy Bilt ride on mowers. Miss Gift demonstrated this compact ride on lawn mower in 2016. It was an appropriate ride on lawn mower, at an attractive price, for the estate of the retired US expat in a Buriram Village setting. A British expat viewed the two Troy Bilt lawn mowers in the repair service department of Ruangsanthai Builders Merchants in November 2016. Thank you. Mr. Pichai.

Today Ruangsangthai was the first store in Thailand to receive several 942-04308-X Blades.,  These higher grade X blades are not a common item for sale in Thailand. For any part on a Troy Bilt ride on lawn mower please see the foreign sales team at my family owner retail shop on Highway 2074 in Buriram. Parts and repairs on selected brands of ride on mowers and easy to accomplish at Ruangsangthai.

Today our first Orec made in Japan ride on lawn mower with a Honda engine arrived at Ruangsangthai in Buriram. Miss Mild one of the bi lingual hardware store staff is ready to assist customers for the Home & Garden EXPO sale which starts on Tuesday morning. Well worth your time to see over 50 booths with special home building and power tools under cover at my family owned builders merchants store. Over 300 Thai staff will assist customers for the next seven days in Buriram. Free food, free non alcoholic beverages, live entertainment and the chance to win a motorcycle. Thank you for your support. Mr. Pichai.

It was time to service the mowers (including a Honda Push Mower) I bought from Ruangsanthai, I was trying to determine how to get the mower onto my truck.  I finally contacted Bob and in a few hours he came picked up both mowers, serviced them and brought back.  Wow was that easy, and the cost was amazingly low.  I really made the correct decision instead of trying to bring it in myself.

So thanks to Ruangsanthai for after market service on their mowers. 


On a side note whenever I'm there I run into expats that I know, today Scott was there that I haven't seen in quite a while.  So nice to visit.   party12
