I have a 23 year old John Deere LX279. The hood cracked and broke into many pieces. The OEM hood was very expensive to order. Found this product as a direct replacement. I was very pleased with the fit, finish and color match. It’s built as heavy as the OEM. Highly recommend

Same hood that came new when I bought my John Deere 25 years ago. It fit same as OEM.

First thing UPS strikes again, box was beat up enough I inspected before driver left and found mark on upper hood but I accepted it, didn't have center in the lower like some of the others do but I was able to cut section out of old hood and plastic weld it back in, since it can't be seen when hood is closed I'm not going to worry too much about finish. Be sure to save all fasteners for reuse. Not giving five stars because of not having center section

I was looking to replace my damaged and brittle OEM hood. It came well packaged. Install was easy and reused the screws from the OEM hood. If you don't have those screws or the OEM hood, you'll need to purchase separate. The color is a perfect or at least very close match. My tractor looks new again with this hood!

Fit perfectly on my john deere 345

Excellent replacement for the original. I only wish the bolts would have come with it or at least shared that they were not provided.

My lawn tractor had a heavy box fall on it and it completely demolished the John Deere original lower & upper hood. I thought this item, advertised as being for my LX277 model, would be perfect. It does indeed fit and it looks nice; however, it is not the same hood. The original lower hood covers the engine except for a cut-out hole of about 9.5" diameter, so that the foam isolator ring (which is 12" outside diameter and 9.5" inside diameter) can attach to the underside of the hood. This isolator is supposed to help keep the tractor quiet and cool. This replacement hood, though, instead of the 9.5" diameter hole, leaves out the entire approximately 14x20" rectangle. So, there is no place to attach the isolator (which I wasted money on). Consequently, the tractor is noticeably louder than it used to be. I wish this had been explained in the ad. You can see the difference in the attached photos. All said, the new hood does fit and it looks pretty as well.
