Hello Joe M Moize,
It's amazing to hear you're loving your tool. We pride ourselves on creating long lasting tools that have great function. Your feedback is greatly valued!
I purchased this mower recently and it was easy to assemble. I’m so glad battery operated garden tools exist, because it’s so much easier to maintain. It’s still very early spring here, but I did try out the mower on some old grass and wow it was a joy to use. I’m looking forward to the mowing season!
I am very pleased with this mower. I love not having to worry about starting it up. I can turn it off and on as many times as I need to while mowing. I also love the small storage space it takes. I also am glad it has a steel deck for durability. The controls are easy and it's much quieter than my previous gas mower. My yard takes about 45 minutes to mow and the 2 4.0 Ah batteries is enough to handle it. Oddly, the first battery seems to drain kind of fast. But then the 2nd battery seems to last for 2-3 times longer. They are always both on the mower together. I am not sure if one of the batteries has an issue or if that is normal. But together they could probably run for about an hour (or more) which is what was advertised. I have a flat yard and I use the self propelled feature the entire time.
Only minor negatives I found: It simply does not have the same power as a gas mower. The turbo button helps but I went into the purchase knowing this could be an issue. So I compensate by making narrower passes and cleaning the underside at least once while mowing. Anything that keeps more open air space underneath seems to help with the cut power and battery life. This will probably get better as more drier weather comes in the summer time. Also, when trying to install the top part of the handle the control cords were too long to push down into the lower handle without mangling them. I had to remove the small black plate at the bottom of the lower handle and pull the cords down that way to install the top handle. Then I re-attached the black plate (just a single screw). It works fine but there is some extra cord length near the back wheel.
