After decades of building mowers that became household names, Snapper is back with a new lineup built for today’s homeowners – starting with the T42 lawn tractor. And already, it’s turning heads.


The team at Pro Tool Reviews put the T42 through its paces, calling it “a strong return to form for a classic American brand.” Their verdict? A mower that feels solid, performs with confidence and delivers on the promise of the red badge.

A Classic – Reimagined for Real Life

Modern updates meet proven Snapper durability

Built with a fabricated 11-gauge steel deck, the T42 brings the kind of durability Snapper has always been known for, with modern updates that make every mow smoother and easier.


Pro Tool Reviews highlighted how the T42 balances comfort, control and cut quality, powered by a Briggs & Stratton® engine that handles real-world yard conditions without hesitation.
