The 7-Iron decks are stamped from 7-gauge steel which requires an incredible 4,000,000 pounds of force to stamp the shell. Stamped decks minimize the number of welds and provide a smooth underside, with fewer sharp corners where material could build. These stamped decks have rounded corners which reduces the potential damage if a deck should contact trees, rocks, curbs or other fixed objects.

The John Deere Mulch On Demand deck lets you switch between mulching and side-discharging without ever leaving your seat. Save time and money by keeping clippings off of sidewalks and driveways and out of mulch beds.
