This thing is just amazing!!! I was a little skeptical at first. No way can a battery powered mower compete with a gas. Boy was I wrong. I remember using my gas motor mower after a week or 2 of straight rain. The grass boing almost a foot long. And the gas motor almost stalled and died. I couldn't use the self propelled wheels. I had to push it. Which took forever. So after another 2 weeks of rain. I pulled this out. Thought "oh great, this isn't going to work" and just like a hot knife through butter. No hesitation, no grass uncut. This powered through.
After using this for around 2 months. I've noticed I can mow twice with the battery it came with. And about 3-4 full mows with the battery from my snow-joe. The bag looks soo small. But it's quite large. The indicator on the bag is also nice. Airflow through the bag = flapper is open = bag isn't full. I didn't read the manual so at first I didn't know what it was. I'm more of a "let's put this handle on, I want to see and hear this thing work" kind of guy. Now this says whisper quiet. It's whisper quiet… if is a bear whispering. It's really not that loud. Much quieter than a gas mower. The only sound you really hear are the blades moving around, which makes a very distinct sound. Basically it sounds like a regular mower, three houses down.
It doesn't have any self propellers. I was disappointed, because I didn't look into the description. Once I picked up the box and put it together, that disappointment was gone. This thing is so light, you can mow one handed and still get those straight lines you want. You can also mow as fast as you want.
It's also great to see my neighbors looking over with the confused looks on their faces. I hope this review helps.
