I have had the Snapper Pro 200XT with the Vanguard Big Block for 4 years now and it is hands down the best mower I have ever owned. I do not mow commercially, but I wanted a machine that was built for it. I have over 5 acres that I mow and since getting the 200XT I have cut my mowing time by more than half. Everything on this mower is serviceable, although I have not had any need so far other than to change the oil and filter, and grease all of the fittings annually.
Replacement blades are very reasonably priced, and it you want to re-sharpen the existing blades take them to a dealer or authorized service center. As with any high-performance commercial mower, it is critical that the blades are properly balanced when sharpened due to them turning at a much higher RPM than consumer grade mowers.
I would recommend this mower to anyone that wants a commercial duty machine that needs to use it a lot.
