no problem charging on US electric. the grass catcher stays on very well during use, but comes off with nearly no effort when you need to empty iy. the blades have not gotten stuck on me yet under electric power, but when using as a non powered push mower they do bind up from time to time in thick grass. I have no idea where to get the battery. i did see one here on amazon for $150 (wow). I do need a second battery as the main battery is not enough to cover my whole lawn. i get about 2.3 of it done. i don't know the exact size of my lawn but it is typically about an hour mow from start to finish

Jesse, I have no idea, because I have not had that problem. I have used mine for a complete season and this summer have picked up grass after mowing and I have had no problems. Could something have gotten wrapped around the wheel? This would cause the wheel to stop turning and may have broken off teeth. Sorry I can't be much help to you.

Thanks for the info ... Im afraid to contract B&D; as I know they will tell me to bring it in . Fat chance !Its at the optimal height for me now anyway (5? or 3 from top level I believe?) so I might just suck it up and keep this one rather than paying to bring it in or get a replacement. LOVE the mower though and my lone fear of worrying it wouldnt complete my lawn on 1 charge was proven to be not worth worrying about !

1. Charges anywhere in U.S. 2. Catcher is easy to remove and empty. 3. Blades can stick, remove safety before uncloging blades. They don't stick often. 4. Amazon had batteries, have you searched for them?

Using the sweeper is easy and I have experienced no problems thus far. When dumping, I drive my tractor forward, if there is a lot in the catcher basket. I try to empty my basket when I notice its a little over 1/2 full. Wet or damp grass is always a problem and sometimes sticks inside the basket. But I try to use the sweeper when the grass is dry as that is when it works best

It is very hard to do. It has a hard time cutting through any grass. Is there a way to keep it on while using it? I know there is a safety feature with it, but it is hard to hold both buttons down to keep it running at the same time.

I've used the bagger on my 46" mower to do my fall cleanup of leaves every year since I purchased it and it does a great job, not to mention I have quite a few trees so theres alot of leaves. the trick is to make sure you do your clean up when the leaves and grass are dry, I've never owned a residential mower no matter what the price that does a good job on wet grass or soggy leaves, they all get clogged up, besides you should never cut your grass when its wet, it doesn't mulch well or bag well and the grass gets matted down. but most importantly "it can be dangerous" especially if you have hills or your using a push type or self propelled mower. at least thats my opinion!....hope this helps....

You are about right 2 years although my original battery is still working but does not hold as good of a charge so I had to buy another one in 2013. I bought the mower in 2010. Since my original battery can still hold a charge I will alternate both batteries. Also when I use the mower I use the middle height setting all the time. The lowest height setting and using the grass catcher use up a lot of power on the lil mo machine from worx. I don't use the lowest setting for large areas since this tends to scalp my grass.

We use this mower without a grass catcher and let the mowed grass stay on the lawn. It is such a small amount of grass that it blends in quickly and does not cause a problem. Kathy Summers

Love mine! I use it to clear the sidewalk after mowing and getting leaves off the deck. It's not great for piles of leaves though not enough power. I have the weed eater and the blower and batteries are interchangeable. For lots of leaves you need a more powerful blower.

No, I haven't had the front blades clog up. The front discharge feature really throws the grass. The main problem I have had is if the height adjustment is low enough to clip the grass, the mower is ridiculously hard to push.

Aww man you're gonna make me have to go see cuz I honestly can't remember. I hope you appreciate this and you owe me a beer.......Ok, it will roll backwards but the blades do not. It is however a fairly heavy bugger and I expect, with proper maintenance, to get a lifetime of usage out of it. I bought it mainly as a backup for my power mower. It does not, however, cut weeds for nothing and I don't know why. I believe because the weeds are so flexible they slide right through. But in a way that's a good thing as then you can spot the little bastids and kill them.

I am looking into buying this model as well and am interested in the answer to Erin Leddy's question - can you take out the battery and charge it outside of the mower? I will be storing the mower in a shed with no power, so this is a key consideration for me. Thanks!

Mine worked 3 months last year. I went to start it this year in May and the battery is shot. I finally got in touch with WORX and paid $28.00 shipment for a replacement battery and charger. The charger here and I'm still waiting for the replacement battery.I'm paying $30.00 a week to have my lawn cut weekly and have a $350.00 lawn mower that don't work with a new charger. I would find another brand of electric lawnmower if I were you. Good luck Dave

I no longer have my mower, but I did not have a problem with the battery. I tried not to have it charging longer than 24 hrs, but often forgot about it. I had other problems.

In my eyes, the plow attachment is not the issue. It's the mower deck that is a pain to take off and reinstall. Once the mounts for the plow are on, they can stay on allowing for simple attachment of the plow, but they will be on the mower all summer. Also, if you use a brush guard on your mower, the plow mount will also have to be removed since they use the same mounting holes. I found the installation to be more than it was worth and bought a snow blower this winter instead.

I get a nice, even cut by mowing in close rows first, then picking up missed spots using a motion like a vacuum cleaner. Don't think of this as a 'mower'. It's in between a mower and a trimmer. If you are like me and have ever used a trimmer like a mower just because your grass was not easily mowed any other way, then give this a try. You are guaranteed to get a good trimmer and edger even if the mower deck attachment doesn't fit your needs.
