What is the CHOICE Expert Rating?
Good points

Good Points

  • Excellent performance with the catcher.
  • The catcher is very easy to empty even though it doesn't have second handle.
  • Has carry handle.
Bad points

Bad Points

  • Noticeable and annoying vibration, uncomfortable on the hands.
  • A little heavy for an electric mower, the front wheels dig into the grass and it's not particularly easy to push.
  • Becomes heavier when its set to one of the lowest cutting heights, as the body drags on the grass.
  • The handle may be too low for some and its easy to pinch the palm of the hand between the bar and the control lever.
  • Only OK for control convenience, the lever requires some effort to pull in.
  • The cutting height lever requires a fair amount of effort to adjust.
  • Mesh type catcher lets small clippings and dust through.
