Was very excited to get this mower. Not too heavy so I carried it easily to the garage. Setup instructions were easy to follow. Noise is not too loud, although I wear ear protection anyway. The battery lasts 30 minutes, so it's perfect for a quick touch-up around the edges, where the giant mower cannot reach. Only disappointment is the escape hatch clogs up often (with mulch), which requires stopping, turning off the mower, tipping it onto its side, and clearing the hatch by hand. Other than that quirk, it's a great small machine.
This was a gift several months ago...I love it! It's my new favorite tool. Today after I had mowed, it was parked on the driveway for a few minutes. I noticed a trail of black inky looking fluid dripping from underneath. Anyone else have this problem?
This mower is fantastic! I spent 6 weeks with a lovingly refurbished (by a family member) gas guzzler that taxed the expandability of my very short arms. In short, it never wanted to start and always died halfway through a lawn. Now I don't have to risk the possibility of a dislocated shoulder every time I want to mow. The battery lasts 1.5 front and back mowing sessions. That's fine with me. I'd rather wait for the battery to recharge than act like a crazy yo-yo trying to start the other one. I love this mower!
I’ve only used the mower a couple of times, but I really like it compared to the old battery powered mower I’ve been using for years. It has lots of power with just the one battery, and plenty to cut my entire lawn. Having the 2nd battery option is nice, too. For me, the best feature is how easily the handle folds down, which makes it really easy to store in limited space.
This mower will get the job done. My only real complaint is that the different settings aren't standard lengths. Instead of 1", 1.5", 2", etc., it's like 1 1/3, 2 1/4, etc. It's not a big problem; it just makes it a little harder to line up with my riding mower.
