Comment:
I have used it three seasons on the same battery and it works perfectly. Cutting an 8,000 SF country lawn, ie its not babied. Any stick under 1/2 I just mow over and mulch it. Never even hinted at running out of juice. Cannot walk too fast with it or you get lots of uncut pieces, on tall grass 6 + will need two cuts from different directions. Nice and quiet as well, use it any day and any time of day.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Small Lawns
Comment:
In California our lawns our small. I went from over two acress on gas rider mowers (and accessories) to small and cordless... No smelly fuels to store and fill. <br />This mower works perfectly....if the bagging capacity issue is a real problem then you probably need a bigger mower anyway. For lawns that take 10- 20 minutes, I empty twice ( when not mulching anyway) and charge every 3 - 4 mows....doesn't get any easier than that!

Update after 2 seasons

Comment:
Have used this mower for two seasons now. The most important deficit, I think, is the poor bagging. When the grass is very thick (May and June in NJ), mulching is more of a strain for every mower, and way too much for this machine. Bagging, getting the clippings out of the mower's chamber, will help, but this bag clogs way too easily. <br /><br />My lawn is not very lush, so the rest of the season I can manage. As I said before, the mower is very quiet, the charge lasts long enough to cross-cut the lawn, which I need to do sometimes to make it look good. <br /><br />I'm going to keep it for now, and borrow my neighbor's gas mower for a few weeks in spring.
