Summary: **** - Love Black & Decker 2010-08-12
Comment: We prefer the convenience of an electric mower over the heavier, more maintenance-intensive gasoline powered mowers.
Black & Decker is by far the best of the electric mowers: it is sturdy, well-built, has good features and extras, and costs no more than the competition. This model has an adjustment for height of mowing. As always, the plug-in for the electric cord is solid (especially when compared to some I saw at a big box store).
I do most of the mowing (female, over 60) and find the machine light enough to be manageable, but sturdy enough to be dependable.
With free shipping from Amazon, it's a much better product for the money than what could be purchased locally.

Summary: its too bulky 2010-07-31
Comment: I had this mower for a long time. I think 4 years or so. I HATE IT. IT IS TOO BULKY, HEAVY AND TOO MUCH TROUBLE
MANAGING THE CORD WHILE MOWING THE LAWN. WISH I COULD SELL IT AND GET A SMALLER MOWER.
I MOW A SMALL LAWN IN THE CITY. 2 SMALL STRIPS AND A SMALL AREA UNDER MY WINDOW.
AN ELECTIRIC MOWER TETHERED TO THE CORD IS NOT WORTH THE PROBLEMS: IE MOWING OVER THE CORD CAUSING A BAD SPARK AND TRIPING THE BREAKER.
NEVER AGAIN.
I'D RATHER BUY GAS

Summary: Good mower, does not get the area edges 2010-07-06
Comment: I have a small garden, part of which is grass. This mower works pretty well, except for the edges (for which it is too bulky). I need to find an alternate solution to get the edges of the grassy area trimmed. Assembly was fast, about 15 minutes or so. I would recommend it if you have a medium to large grass area. For small areas like mine, you may need to find a tool that is more flexible.

Summary: B&D Electric Mower 2010-07-03
Comment: I am pleased with this mower. I purchased it for mowing a ditch that is too steep for the riding mower and also for trimming areas that the riding mower can't reach. It is lightweight and easy to use. It's a bit awkward working around the cord, but that is to be expected. Overall I think it was a good buy. I don't have to worry about charging a battery or having to bother with gasoline and oil -- just plug it into the outlet, pull up the handle and it's ready to mow.
