Never thought mowing could be so much fun – Purchased this after reading many positive reviews both here and overseas. I must say that I agree with them. I have used it to mow the back and front yards and nature strip several times now. It does a very neat and even job. I was worried as some people had said it only worked well on good, even lawn but we have awful,lumpy, uneven and weedy lawn in the back, awful grass and lawn in the front and nice grass on the nature strip. It cuts all of it well. It even copes OK with the dandelion flower stalks (although I do have to mow them a couple of times in different directions sometimes to get them down) and with quite long grass. It cuts fairly close to a raised flower bed, tree trunks and edging if you take your time.

I find it easy to maneuver and light to lift up when I need to (although I need to remove the grass catcher if it is full before I do this as the full catcher adds quite a bit of weight). It even has a handle on the body of the mower to assist with lifting it.

It is easy to start (you press a button and lift the second handle/lever) and starts first time every time. It stops immediately if you let go of the handle/lever. The battery is also fairly easy to change.

The catcher can be a bit tricky to empty if it is very full but if you start the grass moving by pulling it out with your other hand it is not too bad. The clippings are of a nice size and even cut so you could use them for mulch or composting quite easily.

I have found that if you let the catcher fill right up the mower will eventually spit some cut grass out the front of the mower and turn off. It will keep turning off until you empty the catcher.

Also, the mower will simply stop when the battery charge gets too low. If the grass is of average to short length the mower will go for about 1 hour on a full charge. If the grass is longer or damp the time will decreased to about 40 minutes. I have purchased a second battery and keep both charged and simply swap them when one runs out of charge. Alternatively, if you want to save the coast of an additional battery, it only takes about an hour to get an 80% charge so you could take a break and/or do something else for and hour and then return to use the same battery again.

The mower is quieter than a vacuum cleaner. Easy to start, light to move around/lift, easy to maneuver, turns off if you let go (safer), quiet, doesn't smell, no cord, cuts well even on uneven ground or over weeds, can cut quite close to edges etc Expensive, catcher can be difficult to empty as grass gets caught inside, may need an extra battery for larger lawn
