– Yard Force 40V Cordless Lawn Mower 32cm Cutting Width, Lithium-Ion Battery, 30L Grass Collector, Rear Roller, 5 Height Adjustments – Small to Medium Lawns

I bought this as Used/ good as new - it came without the manual and there was a slight scratch on the body work but everything was there and the unit was very clean - possibly not even used. The battery is very good with the indicator of the amount of charge left. It takes about an hour to fully charge from 5-10%. My lawn is about 100 sq m overall and i could do it all on a 30/ 40% charge easily. My lawn is also a little uneven, so having a wheeled mower is more convenient than a hover mower. I had to do a few initial cuts to get the grass to a reasonable and uniform length (after the winter) and I would say that you cannot just cut anything with this mower, you may need to do a few runs and reduce the cut height each time otherwise the motor may cut out. The unit is so light and easy to manage. For the money (£124) I cannot complain but here a few possible issues that may deter some people, 1)the motor may cut out if you try to cut long grass at the lower settings,2)because the mower is so light you have to make sure that the front wheels are on the ground and not lifting up, 3)the start button (specifically) and pull bar are a bit tricky - it took me 3 goes to get it right the first time, 4)a 30l box is fine for trimming but you will have to empty several times on a long cut on a reasonable lawn. All minor issues. Overall this is a really nice mower with the main conveniences of a petrol mower but the affordability of a corded mower.

Our other mower is a large petrol Hyundai and we bought this to do our smaller front garden. It is virtually all plastic construction and is super light, possibly too light when cutting the grass but perfect when it comes to moving it around for storage. There are a few things to be aware of : A) although the battery provides good run time there is very little power for cutting longer grass. The motor stalls and struggles on longer grass that a similar sized 240v mower with a lead would just cut through. B) the charger cannot be mounted on a wall which may sound insignificant but with so many battery tools needing chargers it’s so much tidier and more convenient to have them wall mounted. C) As it’s just so lightweight I cannot see it working on uneven ground or cutting along a slope. In addition there are only two options for adjusting the length of the handle and if your body weight is too far back it’s easy to lift the front wheels which affects the cut. Overall It all feels a bit small, and a bit cheap and lightweight but seems to do a good job. It’s trump card is it’s just so convenient and it’s perfectly suited for small lawns.

Great value for money

So glad I ordered this lawnmower. As an older person with disabilities I was dreading mowing the lawn to be honest. I found my normal electric mower heavy and hard work. This mower made mowing the lawn pleasurable again. So light and easy. Gives a really good quality cut and stripe. Battery charges very quickly as I do tend to run out before I've finished. The only negative is the price of a second battery. Obviously if your lawn is overgrown either put it on the highest setting or go over with a more powerful mower/strimmer first to avoid overloading the motor

I think this is my first ever review where I have not been pleased with my purchase. My old cordless mower gave up the ghost so I needed a new one and this looked like a good replacement. The one good thing I can say about it is that it is light so if that's important for you then great. Now the not so good stuff... 1. The problem with a light mower is that it tends to bounce when it hits uneven ground so it then misses some grass. As my lawn is very uneven it gives a bad first cut and I have to go over some parts again in a different direction. 2. The first time I used it the roller that is supposed to give a strip broke at one end and fell out so no stripes for me! 3. The mower is not powerful enough. If you mow regularly and always keep the grass short you may be Ok but I could not mow for a few days because of rain and when the mover got to a tuft of grass more than a few inches long it simply stopped as it did not have the power to cut the grass. Overall I think its a substandard mower and would not recommend it to anyone unless they need a light mower and have a bowling green flat lawn that they can mow every few days so the grass does not get long.

This is the second of these mowers that I have bought. The first one my wife burnt the motor out. The mower was good so we invested in a second. npt quite so good as there were issues. The cut was a little scrappy as if it had been cut with a pair of scissors. Also it was quite noisy.. After soome cuts there was a 'clang' and all stopped working. Checking the blade and its housing all was clear. I then removed the motor housing only to find a bearing and its fastening free and rolling about loose. There was also a circlip loose. All items were refitted into their correct positions, the motor unit boxed up and screwed down. the power reapplied. Wow! The mower works far better than it ever did. Less noise. However, there is still a problem and that is with the collection basket. The top is pulling away from the sides. It will not be long before the basket becomes useless. 'Amazon, are you reading this'. I shall be contacting you to see if there is a replacement? Over all, a good mower (provided it does not fall to pieces) and light enough for the elderly to cope wth.
