Product Description
From the Manufacturer
The Neuton CE 5.4 Battery-Powered Mower is the smart choice for small lawns. It is welcome relief from the arm-yanking pull-starts, the fumes, noise, and vibration of a gas lawn mower. Start this 14-inch cut mower with the push of a button and mow for up to 1 hour on a single charge. Adjust the cutting height from 1.2-inch - 3-inch with a single lever. The 8-inch rear wheels and 7-inch front wheels roll easily over rough terrain. The 500-watt motor doesn't use gas or oil, it never needs a tune-up, and it runs clean. It produces no pollution or carbon emissions - and the battery is virtually 100% recyclable. This model is perfect for mowing lawns up to 1/4 acre on a single charge. Unlike other battery mowers with built-in batteries that require you to stop mowing to recharge, if you need more time with a Neuton Mower just drop in an optional spare battery and keep mowing. There's no need for the hassle of an extension cord. The 3-in-1 Neuton CE 5 Mower comes with everything you need to start mowing: rear grass collection bag, side discharge chute, mulching plug, 240 watt-hour battery, battery charger and safety key. The optional Trimmer/Edger Attachment eliminates the need for a second piece of equipment and gives your yard and walkways a beautiful, clean finish. At only 48 pounds (including battery) and whisper quiet, the Neuton CE 5.4 is easy on you and the neighborhood. The Noise Pollution Clearinghouse has rated the Neuton Mower the quietest rotary mower you can buy. The battery recharges on about 10 cents worth of electricity - so the Neuton CE 5 is also easy on your wallet. All Neuton Mowers are backed by a 2-year warranty and Neuton's own customer service technicians, website and live chat.

Summary: If you have a very small yard (Perhaps 1000-1500 square feet of lawn) this could be a decent compromise for you, otherwise I don't think the 14" path and limited battery capacity will "cut it"
My neighbor has this one from a couple of years ago and I tried it out. It's smaller, lighter and quieter than the two cordless mowers we've used but that 14" path would probably be a dealbreaker for most people. When you consider that you will overlap each pass by at least 2-3 inches, you're really only cutting 10-11 inches on each pass.

+ Easy to maneuver
+ Quiet
+ Small
+ Super light compared to our B&D CM1100 or Toro, both of which weigh about twice as much
<DISLIKES>
- 14" path!?!?!
- Pricey for what you get
- Hard to cut near obstacles
<COMPARO>

<FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS>
>>Why SHOULD I get a cordless electric mower? They are super quiet, clean, and convenient. No fumes or exhaust- because gas mowers don't have catalytic converters, they can pollute as much in a year as 43 cars!!!!. They aren't necessarily cheaper than a gas mower since they cost more up front but there is basically NO maintenance. (We spent $80 over 10 years for a set of replacement batteries.) Corded electric mowers are a cheaper but having a cord is a pain.
>>Why SHOULDN'T I get a cordless mower? They weigh a LOT more than gas mowers so if you have a hilly lot or have difficulty with physical exertion, forget it. They don't have as much power as gas and re-fueling means charging for a few hours so if your lot is over ˝ acre you may want to reconsider.
>>Why do they all come with mulching PLUS bagging? Electric powered mowers have come a long ways but mulching still takes a LOT more power than discharging, so bagging is pretty much a standard feature.
>>What is a watt-hour? It's basically how big your gas tank is - the more watt-hours, the longer you can mow before you have to recharge.
>>Is the cutting path a big deal? Yes - for two reasons. 1) The first thing manufacturers do when power is marginal is reduce the blade size, so I tend to see the smaller mowers as more likely to be underpowered. Second, when you consider that you have to overlap each pass by ~3", a 20" blade now effectively cuts 13% more on each pass. If you have a larger yard, you definitely do NOT want anything under 18" Also, my measurements show most mowers overstate their blade size by 1/2" (Our 20" measures 19-5/8, our 19 measures 18-1/2)
>>Why might I want a removable battery? If you have a large yard, this means you can have a second battery charging while you are using the first. A second battery typically costs $100-$150 but it can make the difference between going electric or not. Finally, if you keep the mower in a shed that doesn't have power, a removable battery will let you bring it in for charging.
>>How long will my batteries last? That depends on your climate and usage. We had a small lot for many years and were religious about recharging right after use. We also live in a cooler climate (Michigan) so it's cooler and the mowing season is shorter. Our batteries lasted ~7 years. Most people should get 3-4 years easily but if you're careless and live in Arizona, you might be able to kill the batteries in a year or two.
>>Why should I care about higher voltage? Higher voltage = more power, PLUS you can recharge the mower faster. With the same chemistry and current, a 36V mower will charge 50% faster than a 24V mower.
>>Metal deck or plastic? Metal rusts but with minimal care it's not an issue. Plastic ends up giving you a more stuff to trim since you can't cut as close to fences, etc.

I have owned this mower for over two years and I have to say it is better than a gas mower and way better than any of the other electrics I have tried. The battery on this has more power than you will ever need and the trimmer attachment is great, you have no problems trimming your grass and then picking up the clippings with the mower!! It is a decent price for what you get and if you buy at the right time of the year you can get a three year warranty for free like I did. I purchased mine directly from Neuton and had it with in a week. Great Mower well worth the money!!

This was my first cordless mower after I gave up the gas mower. I have owned it for a year and I no longer need to deal with engine maintenance. All I need is charge and mow. On tall grass it works for more than 40 min and this is more than enough for my yard. You won't go wrong with this product.

Great for small yards
I've gotten a good 5-6 years out of mine. No problem with the battery until now.
It will stall in thick grass, but just walking slower usually solves the problem.
