I was so tired of restarting my gas mower I bought this one and threw the old one away. Does the front and back yard with one charge. Mowed through 2 1/2 feet of grass without stalling.
Great mower. Cuts and handles easy. Charges quickly. Easy battery insertion and removal. Very happy with this mower! Goes about 45 minutes on a charge depending on grass height needing cutting.
Have only used this three times so far but I like it a lot. Compared to my old gas mower it is certainly quieter, and the run time is more than adequate. In my experience the batteries will last over 45 minutes each when using a combination of self-propelled and intervals of “turbo” mode, which is plenty of time to mow my 1/4 to 1/3 acre lot (minus the home footprint and driveway/patio). I do wish the mower had more lift/power, as it seems to leave blades of grass laying down and longer/uncut even when they are well within the swath of the blades, but I have not yet tried the high-lift blades that are included in the package, so this may significantly improve this one complaint.
We love this mower! So quiet, so light, and only uses 1 of its 2 batteries on a 1/4 acre lawn. Clippings are small and no missed grass blades sticking up.
I love this mower! I enjoyed my gas equipment, maintaining it and keeping it going, so lower maintenance was not a selling point for me. However, you can’t underestimate just how much better it is to mow with battery power vs. gas. First thing, no exhaust. I live in Colorado and the wildfires from the West have made air quality pretty bad this year. No exhaust does help when air quality is bad. Second thing, noise. I can’t explain it, but the lack of noise makes it so much more pleasant - and I used to wear ear protection. Third thing, speed. Yes this is faster than my gas mower and the cut is better. Fourth thing, battery life. I have about 1/4 acre of grass to mow and I can easily do my yard twice with the two batteries - I am pretty certain I could do it three times.
Used this all summer and no problems at all. Plenty of power and charge for a small yard—I can mow a couple times on one charge. A well built lightweight, quiet and smooth electric mower.
