This is a great mower! Lots of people have already reviewed the positives, so let me focus on something I didn't see in the reviews.This mower needs 12 or 14 gauge extension cords. The limit, according to the owner's manual, is 75 feet. This means you are limited to mowing relatively small lawns. Or you can ignore the "advice", use 16 gauge wiring (this is usually the 100ft cords you can buy everywhere) and take your chances on shortening the life of the mower. Or you can connect whatever length of 12 or 14 gauge and press on.My suggestion is to figure out the furthest distance you need to mow from a power outlet and make sure you can reach. Or buy the cordless mower
