    Simply Masterful

    I bought this to deal with a large heavily inclined stretch of grass unaccessible by a rideon on a lifestyle block. It's first day was dealing with grass up to 600mm high running 12ah batteries. I had the mulch plug in which i expected to be asking a bit much, and had it on the 2nd to highest setting.

    This thing just doesn't stop, and the self drive which is super easy to operate sees it drag itself straight up the hill with minimal input from me. As the grass is so long it will need another pass to tidy it up (going over the grass naturally pushed it to lay down flat as you went over it, leaving a little here and there), but the fact this thing didnt even cough or bog AND had a massive runtime - well, if you need a new mower you should really pick this up. Yes it is a fair chunk of change, but you can see where you money went - this aint no toy electric mower, you'd need a full commercial spec petrol mower to beat it i reckon, i've had decent petrol mowers before and they dont even tough this - no messing around starting or refuelling.

    It's just really thoughtfully designed and put together, the motor varies power to save batteries and if it starts to get slowed it responds quickly to maintain spin speed of the blades. it weighs a tonne but with the self drive its not to bad at all. you can also engage the self drive without the mower cutting if like me you have a long uphill walk back to base.

    Great tool with awesome features

    I enjoy using this a lot and it does an amazing job and leaves an incredible result. However it's lowest cut setting is still too high for my liking. My petrol mower does a great low cut and that is still on setting 3, the Milwaukee mower, even on it's lowest setting, still leaves the grass towering above the petrol lawn mowers cut, making the lawn look un-mowed. Everything else about the mower is fantastic! I really enjoyed the self propel feature and the high cut mode. The lights seem a bit pointless as not many people would use this in the dark.
    If I wasn't so particular about the length of my grass, this would be an awesome tool. However, it turns out that this is not the right tool for me, so will most likely be kept in the back of the shed unused. :(
