Yard Machines Electric Mower

Review by CoopaPple : awesome mower for small garden

My background: 1st time using mower, lawn has never been mowed before. Experience: Assembly is straight forward, simple and succint. After assembly, took it out for a test drive. I ended up mowing my whole lawn and had the urge to mow some of my neighbors lawn with it just because it was so fun. It has 3 settings high mid and low. High setting was already fairly low. The blade was clean cut and managed to get a relatively smooth cutting over the whole lawn. Using electric was also a plus. No gas smell and is a lot less noisy than my neighbors behemoth. The grass catcher is easy to detach and reattach. The handle bar has a safety button which gets kind of annoying because once you stop, you have to repress the button and start again. Overall is very excellent. It is a little mower with great potential. Though don't try to run this through huge amounts of grass like a light saber. It won't work. Just take it slow and it'll do its job. Highly recommend for first time buyer. Maybe second time buyers if you are looking for something small.

Review by LorriD : Nice little mower

Since it has been raining where we live, we have only had the opportunity to use the mower once. We found it smooth and quiet, and it did a fine job of mowing our small (but very overgrown) lawn. I do think it would have a mowing radius too small to manage a large lawn. Our home has only about a 20 x 30 foot lawn in front. The rest of the front yard and all of the back is ground cover or plants. My husband and I both tried the mower and found it easy to use.

Review by Victor : Best little lawnmower

This is one of the best little mowers that I have tried. It has 3 settings for height. It sounds like a fan when operated. The only down side is that the height settings sometimes slip or change on their own; but, for the price it is the best.

Review by Miss Bear : Excellent lawn mower for a small yard!

I just purchased this item yesterday (09/21/10), and was eager to try it out on my my small front and back yard. I recently moved into a property with less land, so I was looking for a smaller machine with less maintenance requirements. About myself: college student, picky on lawn equipment/not so great experiences with regular gas models Setting up the machine: I always loathe this part, but it was actually quite easy. You pretty much just have to set up the handlebars/handlebar extensions with the provided screws. It had a bag you could attach in the rear, but I opted to not do so at the time. (It's easy to sort of clip on if you want to) Use: I forgot to adjust the height of the machine before i started, so i had a little tough time on the taller grass in my backyard. It's not in the instructions, so turn the machine on it's side and move the coil of the wheels to another tab height setting. It's pretty simple. I switched to the middle option and my front yard was cut a lot faster and with more ease. To start it, all you have to do is to first push and hold down the big red button, then pull the handle while pushing down. The wheels are small, so be careful to not get stuck in muddy areas. Rating: So far so good!! It is a very light machine (very small, looks like a little car toy), can be used one handed. Fumbling around with the electrical cord isn't too bad, and for a small yard it is perfect! A 2 year warranty on the machine is included by the manufacturer.

This lawnmower is perfect for someone with a small yard. It's not to noisy, and it operates with ease. It is also very light in weight.
