Review:

Powered by 12 amp motor 19 inch Black & Decker MM875 with rear-bag options,mulch and side-discharge. Cutting Range: 1.25 - 3.5 inch; Cut Width: 19 inch. Up and down push handle which can be adjust. Easy to use, large bag, No hassle starting, cutting height adjustment, adjustable handle and no fuel to deal with.

This is the third B&D electric mower I've owned. Though I was not especially dissatisfied with any of the previous ones (the first being a side-bag and the second a rear-bag mower), I'm much happier with this one. It has sufficient power, and the bag is not a problem if the grass is dry. The handle folds fairly readily for storage.

The mower performs well. I am very pleased with the cutting height adjustment and the mower cuts the grass evenly. I have a small front yard (20X25) so the mower does what I need....

Arrived promptly. Few pieces to assemble and very easy to use. Very happy with the product.

I have owned a Black & Decker electric mower since 1980 and it was completely problem free for all these years. It was used every week during cutting season and was great! I hit a tree root and bent the blade shaft and if it was not for my carelessness I probably would have used it another 20 years. Black & Decker makes a darn good electric mower. I have cut my grass with this Lawn Hog mower several times and it lives up to my expectations. The only disappointment I have with the new mower is that there is not a side discharge. I am sure I'll get used to this though. I would definitely recommend this mower. It is very quite and easy to use.

I decided to go green and bought electric mower, edger/trimmer and blower (all corded). I felt like driving Prius while mowing the lawn :)

It did not last long though. I mowed the lawn first time with factory settings and it worked fine. I was going on the vacation so I set it to cut 2 inches. It barely worked for 5 feet and stopped. I reverted the setting but it would not start. Since it was still under 30 day return window, I decided to call it a day.

Pros:
- Going green is responsible things to do
- No smoke is blessing for people with allergies like me.
- Pretty light weight
- Assembly is pretty simple

Cons:
- Be ready to shell out $30-40 for cord
- Mowing with cord is not simple as it seems. I felt dumb at times wondering which direction to mow now.
- Not as powerful as gas mower and not self-propelled.
- Unreliable (it broke down with in 3 weeks)
