"I could no longer get the MM675 model, so I went to Home Depot and "upgraded" to the MM1800, the 18" corded mulching/bagging mower from Black and Decker. It didn't feel as strong as my old mower, was more unwieldy, and had this awful plastic shroud that made it hard to maneuver. Bear in mind, I did not consider gas because I don't have the room to keep fuel around and I have a modest size yard. Other nice features include very large rear tires, what might be the largest in the industry. The safety is easy enough to use to not be obtrusive and the bar is full length so you can grab it from either side. Strong metal controls with positive stops made height adjustment a snap. This weekend I gave the bagging feature a try because I wanted to mow up the leaves all of my yard. The bag filled up quickly which was to be expected given the large number of leaves I was mowing, but it was easy to empty. I leave it chained under my deck all year long since I don't have a garage or a tool shed. Update from Spring 2014: I tried a Black and Decker mower this year that was battery operated. It lasted 2 weeks and died when the blade hit a root and bent 90 degrees. It's started to rust a bit (yes, I still keep it outside), but I plugged it in and cut my lawn in a snap."
"A little backstory about why i chose to go with an electric mower: My weekly chore growing up was having to cut the lawn at my parents (1/3 acre); my parents had a craftsman mower which had powered wheels and ran on gasoline. The toughest part about using a corded mower is figuring out the best way to maneuver/cut the lawn without having to constantly adjust the power cord. Once you get that down, you will enjoy using this mower - it's got enough power to handle lawn mowing and even the occasional wayward branch. 1.Buy yourself a nice extension cord that will A) stand out from the lawn color and B) reach from the power source to the farthest corner of your lawn. I keep the cord between my two legs while I mow so that when I do the U turn at the edge of the lawn to do the next line of grass, the cord easily follows behind the mower."
"The mower had no problems getting through it as long as we were patient. I would prefer this electric mower over a gas mower or battery power mower just bc you don't have to stop when you run out of gas or the battery runs out."

Single-lever 5-position height adjustment between 1 1/4 inch and 3 1/8 inch lets you choose the best cut for your yard. G-MAX 40V Li-Ion Battery System powers multiple tools for complete yard work system--includes (1) 4AH Battery, (1) 2AH Battery, and Charger.

The only time we need to recharge the batteries half way through mowing is when we wait way too long between mowings, and the motors need to do some extra work to chop down the tall weeds. We also bought the electric trimmer that uses the same battery system, so we were sure to buy that kit with an extra charger and battery. Update 5/17/2014-. Still using this mower all the time, and it still works great. :-) Using a stick works just as well, and seems to keep things working better."
"A neighborhood teen has been mowing my yard for years using his lawn tractor. Well, it occurred to me that I would not want my yard boy riding the lawn tractor over my walkways so, after researching all the options, I bought this mower for HIM to use. When the larger battery charged fully in about thirty minutes, I thought I would see how powerful the mower was with a brief test push. To my UTTER ASTONISHMENT and PURE DELIGHT, I was not only able give it a "test push," but, steering my power wheelchair with my right hand on the joystick and the mower with my weakened left hand and arm, I was able to mow my entire front lawn! For the wheelchair bound who have retained full upper body nerve function and strength this thing will be a snap - including the 20 inch model. For wheelchair bound users with even less strength than me, there is the 16 inch model."
"Did some investigating and decided to order a new switch that is on the body of the mower (under the cover). The only help I got was that I needed to order a new 'cable' (the cable that is connected from the pull back handle down to the switch I mentioned earlier) even though I had repeatedly told them that the mower would not start depsite manually depressing the switch by hand."

Those that have described the EGO as the "Tesla of mowers" are absolutely right. It's built with quality materials yet significantly lighter than a gas-powered mower thanks to the electric mower. The battery charges INSANELY fast: from no charge on delivery to a full charge took only about 30 minutes, and I was easily able to mow my front and back yards on a single charge (roughly 25-30 minutes of mowing) with plenty of room to spare."
"I was impressed it only bogged out in the same dense wet grass where my gas mower would."
"This mower cuts the grass like a gas mower Period. This electric mower is lightweight (even compared to other lead acid battery electric mowers) so there is no need for self propelled wheels (unless you are mowing a steep bank ~ over 15 degrees, if that is the case you should not buy the EGO); the EGO is exceptionally quiet which well keep your neighbors happy on the weekend, and being electric there is no fussing with gas storage, fuel additives, oil changes or other maintenance items common to gas mower ownership. Lead acid batteries are two to three times the weight of the EGO battery and seem to weaken as the lawn is mowed and over time do not hold their charge, not to mention they take several hours to charge whereas the EGO battery is takes about 30 minutes."
"Had to get something for my daughter. Came home to this sitting on my porch. It is very easy to slide down the handle, flip the handle over and store it in the garage standing end up. It comes shipped in the original box with an address sticker attached. So - if you are uncomfortable having a $500 big box of something sitting on your porch waiting for you to get home from work you might want to think about being home or having somebody looking out for it."

"I do not find this to be a problem and is presumably done to help things being chopped up inside to get out from in there in the normal process of mowing going forward. (In other words, the cuttings are not evenly distributed across the rear cleared area as it moves forward; if that matters to you.). I am attaching a 6 minute video of me dragging it around a small brushy area inside my goat pen. Also, I attached the 'remote' control console to the tongue with two of the huge zip wire ties that were holding the mower to the pallet it was delivered on. I ran one of them through the hole in the tongue formerly holding the pin to support the angle adapter which I store in the garage. I bought it to maintain about 10 acres of grass meadow we have that has been shrinking as brush is encroaching from perimeter woods along the sides. I have made two trips around it so far chopping anything that is there from lots of thick brush to small trees that range up to a bit over 2 inches in diameter and 15+ feet tall. The narrow fenced area is pretty cramped, but it gives you a good view of how it works."
"This machine is a beast!"
"Will be returning today. Amazon provided information that if you have the crate it arrived in use it for the shipping company who will pick it up.... Unless you were tedious and took extra special care and took apart your crate there was no way it was going back together again... Amazon also said if you do not have the shipping material the shipping company will take care of it that only deals with certain companies in Amazon cannot provide all information for every single company. The shipping company will be back because it was not prepared the way they needed So in five days I have to put the mower on a pallet strap it down and the company will shrink wrap it and it will finally be on its way.. Amazon stated 2-3day refund upon receipt of pick up...."

I place order, able to checkout for a sweet deal of just under $700 (I had a bit of a gift card left to use as well) No 2 day shipping, but free nonetheless, so I'm satisfied. Of course the next few days is filled with "optimizing", while I effectively continue to try and jam a square peg through a round hole to make my style of installation work with the robo. But he was acting out against all this nonsense by slicing through or pulling out the boundary wire, not reacting to my 90 degree corners and alarm that he was "outside the working zone" and I couldn't once get him to actually enter into his charging station. Even if I set him right on the wire, 3 feet from the charger, and a straight shot home, he would turn of to the right at the last minute, bumping into the side of the house, causing him to reset and either try again, or wander off in another direction, simply refusing to fuel up so he wouldn't have to be subjected to this disgraceful work environment any longer. On the fourth day I commit to doing things right, 14" gap from the fence/house, 2.5' between pegs, nice round corners, and I used a trimmer to outline a trench down to the soil level for the wire."
"The mower uses the low voltage wire as a guide, half of the Landroid is on one side or the wire and half on the other when its returning to its home charging station. Also map out your yard so you pick a spot to “hide” the mower. The wire that I installed around the yard laid on top of the yard at first but then became hidden after a few weeks. I have always cut my yard so out the gate I used another electric push mower to trim the yard short. Every month to month and a half I run the electric push mower around the edge of my yard where the Landroid does not reach due the guiding wire. My dog doesn’t seem to mind the mower and has quickly figured out what is “out of bounds” for the mower. At first I thought I would miss the “cut lines” in the yard that a traditional mower provides but the constant mowing keeps my grass cut short and you can not see the wheel lines created by the Landroid. I only have the mower installed in my back yard, I don’t have an access area for the front so I still have to trim the grass in the front with my regular mower. I do unplug the mower and move it inside in the winter but I leave the charging station and wire installed in my yard."
