So I broke down this week and bought a used x530 with 97 hours on it. It is in great shape and hopefully will last me a long time. I still have my x360 and will be making this my winter snow blowing machine only, while the x530 will be my main mowing unit. I do have 1 question. The 360 has the 48 inch edge deck with the 48 powerflow bagger. Will the powerflow also work on the 54 inch edge deck? It appears that the discharge opening for both are the same size. The dealer wasn't sure and didn't think it would. I know that the 48 inch deck will fit on x360, so if the powerflow doesn't my alternative will be change decks in the fall to use the powerflow. I only use it to clean up the leaves in our yards.
Any thoughts or help on this would be appreciated. Thanks

….. the power flow unit that will not. They are about $600.

If you look at a parts breakdown, $600 isn't to bad. The housing of mine wore through on the bottom, and I looked into replacing just the housing (after repairing it for several seasons). It was only $150 more to get the entire Powerflow head with turbine, pulleys, belt and mounting bar. It would have cost almost $875 to have bought those separately.

I still have the old one, it still works, just not as efficiently. PM me and I'll send pics to show you the worn parts, if you're interested in it.
