I'm very happy to be using an electric mower and not smell like exhaust after mowing the lawn. Battery life and handling are great. It's not too heavy and I can easily mow for more than one hour since I don't use the Turbo or self propel functions very much. I like the option for using one or two batteries depending on the job or how heavy you want the mower to be. My only complaints are that the bolt for the right side of the handle keeps coming loose and the self propel has a lag to start up and also to disengage. If you want to pull the mower backwards, you have to release the self propel lever a couple seconds before you want it to go backward. I also like the ability to run the self propel with out running the blade.
What’s there to say about this? It lasts for the entire yard. I start by using my 80 volt string trimmer and then when I’m done with that, I take that battery from the trimmer and put it in the left side of the mower. It uses that battery first and then the second battery on the right (in my experience). The cut is better than ANY mower I’ve ever used. Even my grandfather who saw me mowing using this thing was impressed and he is apparently thinking of getting on for himself since his gas mower is nearly a decade old and he’s tired of all the maintenance. Speaking of maintenance, there really isn’t any on this machine, other than keeping it clean and sharpening the blade once in a while. I was also mowing later in the evening a few weeks back and I made a discovery that I don’t recall seeing on the page when I first purchased the mower: this thing has a headlight and does a decent job of lighting up just in front of the mower. This is the best mower I’ve ever had and I’ve become a customer for life!
This lawn mower is perfect for me. I love not having to deal with gas and I can use the batteries for other tools as well. Lawn mower is nice and works well. I like the simple design and the ability to go faster or slower. I can cut my whole yard with both batteries (~2500 sq ft)
I have had this mower almost a month and have mowed the yard four times so far. Performs per the description to date, charge lasts around an hour and is just enough to complete my 1/3 acre lawn using the self-propelling feature most of the time. Second battery is always down to one bar when I finish, don't know how much longer it might go. Only real complaint is that the battery gauge is kind of hard to decipher and may not be too accurate, but that's a very minor issue. Very quiet compared to my old gas mower and does a perfectly fine job on the lawn. No regrets at this point...
Was very weary of switching to electric, but I am sold! Enough power, easy to maneuver, and does a great job. Would love a self propel with 1 1/2 to 2 hours runtime, as I have to take an hour break to recharge, but I am very happy with my purchase!
So far so good! With a 4ah plus additional 2ah battery I can finish my huge yard in 1.5hrs. Also having a second battery, you’re able to charge the one while you use the other.
