With its pros: Bought to replace electric. Wider swath, undeniable power, takes on tall grass. Starts with a light jerk, really very economical. May work for a significant amount of time. It can be washed with water! Compared to electric, I coped with the site faster, despite the shortcomings listed below. Got cons: Small container for collecting grass. If you do not keep track of the filling, then the mulch begins to gather around the knife. Heavy. It is problematic to mow under trees, in corners, along fences and curly lawns, not maneuverable. At the same time, on large flat areas creates a perfectly even lawn.
