Powerful, but not a great cut pattern

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first impression of this mower is that it's very powerful and the battery life is great. After mowing my initial time, I noticed that it left circular mow marks in my lawn - probably where I would stop. My thought is that maybe the mower vibrates and settles a bit so that it cuts those circles with shorter grass? The only other complaint I'd already read about is the going forward glitch where you must wait a few seconds before pulling it backwards.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello NelsonBlackburn.
Thank you for sharing your impression on this mower. We appreciate your feedback and are happy to know it's met your expectations. Circular mowing marks in your lawn, also known as wheel marks or scuffing, are often caused by the mower's wheels digging into uneven areas of the lawn. This can lead to the cutting blade not cutting at the correct height in those areas, resulting in a shorter, patchy appearance.
How to prevent circular mow marks.
1. Ensure your mower blade is sharp.
2. Alternate mowing directions. change the mowing direction each time to prevent the grass from growing in one direction and reduce wheel marks.
3. Ensure you overlap your passes slightly, but not excessively.
4. Avoid mowing wet grass, allow the grass to dry before mowing.
5. Ensure you are mowing at the correct height for your grass type and avoid scalping.
6. Check for unbalanced deck, if the mower deck is unbalanced, it could contribute to wheel marks.
The self-propelled feature is not usable in reverse. They are designed to lock when pulled back to prevent damage to the drive belt. If you are using the self-propelled feature, the mower will attempt to move forward and will be difficult to move backwards. You would have to release the self-propelled lever to pull the mower backwards while still holding onto the start lever.

Awesome machine
on June 3, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] An excellent cut and the battery last to do the entire yard with ease. The self propelled mower is fast, I like the turtle speed, the turbo option works well with very high grass. I'm very happy today, my other 80 volt batteries also work.

Love the Dual Blade
on June 3, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The dual blade is a game changer! I’m getting better and crisper cuts in less time. The batteries are smaller (which is a plus) yet provide more runtime.

Works better than gas mower
on May 31, 2025
Posted by: Johnisme
from Bellmore, NY
Gender:Male
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this as part of a combo with a trimmer and blower. It cuts as well or better than the gas mower I previously had. And it is much quieter which makes the whole experience much more pleasant. I’m able to mow my lawn (55x110 lot) on one charge 2amp. The first mow was after three weeks without a mow and it was long (and was wet) and it was able to cut through with no issues.

Best Lawn Mower Ever Owned
on May 30, 2025
Posted by: TimpGirl
from Idaho
Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s quiet, it’s got headlights! The batteries charge up fast and we are able to mow our .3 acre no problem with the both batteries. Love the turbo option but so far haven’t needed to use it. It’s simple enough for my 13 year old to mow the grass and make adjustments as needed.

Impressive Performance on Steep and Uneven Land
on May 29, 2025
Posted by: Noriko
from Glide, OR
Gender:Female
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this lawn mower for my husband, and he really likes it. In fact, I can see a big improvement in the field, which was rarely mowed properly in the past due to the steep and uneven terrain. It's very quiet and powerful, and the battery lasts a long time.
