Sun Joe MJ420C Mow Joe 16-Inch 24 Volt Cordless Electric Reel Lawn Mower With Grass Catcher

This is the safest and easiest to use mower I have ever used. There is no gas engine to be hard to start, no extension cord to mow or to electrocute you if the grass is wet, and yet it powers through even thick grass without balking.

When my gas rotary mower died after 22 years I really didn't want another one. My yard has a lot of obstacles and a lot of debris which can get picked up and thrown dangerously by a mower. (I don't leave this stuff in the grass, but neighborhood cats knock stuff off of tables.) I used a manual reel mower for a bit but it wasn't very effective and was very hard to use if the grass got too high. I ordered the MJ420C on a lark to see if it would work better than the manual mower.

And does it! I waded into a lawn of six to eight inch St. Augustine grass and the MJ420C just devoured it. In such thick grass you just take it slowly, so that the motor doesn't strain too much; the option to take tall grass slowly doesn't exist with...Read more

Love this little Mower! Great for small yards. Battery holds a charge well. Only negative is the grass catcher does not stay on well.

One of the features that attracted me to purchase this mower was,as stated in the description,that in the event that the battery lost its charge the unit could be used as a push mower.

Then after a couple of minutes on hold she came back with "Oh don't do anything". I responded "No It also states in the owners manual that it works as a push mower and that it was this funtion of being able to use as a push that I purchased this unit.
She then stated that they had one in the back and would try to get it to work as such and would call me back. After a couple of hours she caled me and informed me that it does not work as a push mower.
I immediately returned the mower to Amazon and I must say that I received my refund very promtly.
Thank you Amazon.
