Initially I was leery of everything an electric mower represented. I thought it wouldn't have enough power, the battery wouldn't last, it would be cheaply made. I couldn't have been more wrong. This thing is more efficient than any gas mower I've ever owned. It cuts perfectly and the battery lasts plenty long enough to get the job done. The materials used are strong enough and well-engineered to be a good partner for many years. I'll come back in 5 years and update you on how well it has "weathered" the work-load.
I have owned a Newton and this mower has more features and a much better battery. Battery life is as advertised and the mower is effortless to push. The cut is great and does not bog down in heavier grass. Strongly recommend!
Take’s some getting use to. Appears to be made well, but the controls are less than desirable. I noticed they have discontinued this model and the replacement for it has a more conventional design for the controls and handle. Also. They have done away with the headlights and second battery, both of which seemed to be geared more towards marketing than functionality. It seems to have plenty of power but if you’re grass is high, heavy, or wet, the battery discharge is noticeably shortened. I think I will grow to like it more as time goes on. It appears well made.
