D&D PowerDrive ORB-H-1118 Craftsman Poulan Noma 429636, 197253 Kevlar Replacement Belt, 1/2 x 101, 4LK Section, Rubber

The fit was terrific so I give it a 2 star rating rather than a 1. I would expect to get more than 3 months occasional use out of it though. Disintegrated totally. Entire belt showed signs of failure - not just a single point on the belt. Could not handle routine use. I dont recommend.

Fit just fine and worked well on my Craftsman T3200 for one season (about 25-30 hours). When mowing this week I heard a knocking sound from under the tractor and assumed it was a drive pulley going bad. Nope, the belt was minutes from coming apart, split right at the seam. Put the OEM belt back on that I kept as a spare (with 200+ hours on it) and noise went away and all is well. Guess Ill be getting another OEM belt as backup, you get what you pay for.

Good quality.

Easy to install. Works on Craftsman 917.289101. This drives the mower blades, not the belt you need to propel the mower forward and backward.

Once again, even when using the year/make/model of the mower I received a belt for some other application. Too long and too narrow.

Durable, length was perfect. My husband was extremely satisfied, he said hed order this item again.

Might have just been the shortest lifespan I have ever seen on a new Drive belt. 15 Minutes and this.

Belt busted after 10 minutes of mowing. Don’t waste your money or time on this belt.

I just replaced the original belt on my 2013 Craftsman mower with this one. The original was probably due last season, but when it started slipping off a few days ago, I ordered this one. Im not expecting to get more than 2 seasons out of this for the price, but for a savings over the OEM version of $75, Ill be happy with 2 seasons of use.

This belt came apart in only 35 minutes of use. And this is supposed to be made of Kelvar?
