I have a CCM 190 mower that was purchased in 2011. So far I have replaced belts once (a year or so ago), had a bracket for the top cover break and had it welded back, and had the bearings in one of the discs go bad. Cost was $117 for 2 complete bearing stacks including shipping. Easy to change out. Only other think is that I hit a harrrow in a field a few years ago. Bent up the outer drum pretty bad. Rebent it back to make it usable then replaced the drum. New drum cost $250. That hit on the harrow would have destroyed or seriously maimed a discbine.
