Installed easily. Works great! No raking of leaves (and I had a lot of them). Blades are holding up well, considering I have pine cones and sticks that I run over.

Spoke with the sales associate we bought our 42" zero turn and this mulch kit from and he said I was probably the 3-4th person with the same exact problem. The mulch plug is a joke when it comes to fitting on the existing side chute cover, I barely have the plug on currently and just waiting to hit the incorrect bump for it to pop off. The blades are nice, but without a good quality mulch plug the blades are pointless. Just mowed our lawn 3 times so far with the mulching kit and most of the grass shoots out of the pockets that are formed when trying the get the plug fitted...does craftsman/sears even check their products prior to incorporating them into production??

The first day installed within 15 minutes. Half way through the job the rubber strap broke, no problem I will just get another one. What a joke, you have to buy the whole plug $14.99. I guess I will return tomorrow for refund.

Plug fits like a square peg in a round hole. Returned it. Hope Sears improves it in the future.

I was not able to attach it to my 42" craftsman lawn tractor. Seems to be a wrong part. I will have to return it back to store

The mulch plug works nice, but the blades are a bit lame. When mowing, the blades are a little bit short and leave a strand of uncut grass in the center.

This kit works great and easy to install. I would give it 5 stars if there was instructions given on how to remove the grass discharge chute instead of just keeping it folded up.
