I had my doubts about switching from a gas mower to battery, but I'm so glad I did. This mower was easy to set up and go. It has a lasting battery and powerful enough to cut some pretty thick/tall grass. Not to mention I don't need to worry about gas cans, oil changes, spark plugs or air filters. Very little maintenance for a quality machine. Highly recommend.
Purchased and ordered this a month ago. Delivered to my door and quickly assembled and charged batteries and was mowing that afternoon. Light, easy to use and store. Batteries and charger work well. Have mowed the yard three times and this mower makes it almost fun. Quietness allows me to mow early in morning without disturbing the neighbors. We have a small front and back yard and can do them both with one battery with charge leftover. Love it!!
So the blade is exactly like described, and cuts well on our mower. The reason for the low rating is that the mower it is said to work for, it hits the sides of the deck. While not being too big a deal for me (I took it off and ground the tips down to clear the contact areas), for someone else it could cause premature wear on the electric motor from the intense impacts.
It's very strange though. It's exactly like the blade that came on our mower, same size according to the specs and even appears the same size as the old blade, but it makes contact. I've since sharpened the old blade and will probably make this one just a back up.
