Amazon.com Product Description
If you're in the market for a solid, economical electric mower, the Black & Decker 18-inch electric mower is worth a look. Powered by a high-efficiency, 6.5 amp, Black & Decker motor, this mower offers quiet, hassle-free operation, without the mess and expense of gas-and-oil models. No need for tune-ups and pull starts, either. This mower weighs just 36 pounds, making it easy to push and maneuver in the lawn. It features an 18-inch cutting blade; side discharge (optional Black & Decker side bag assembly #BA-075 sold separately); a rust-proof, polymer deck; and one-touch height adjustment (from 1 to 3-1/2 inches). Tool-free assembly means you'll be up and mowing quickly, while a lifetime deck warranty and two-year warranty on the mower itself provide added peace of mind. --Carl Thress

5 out of 5 stars Great mower for small yards   March 20, 2010
Michael Gallucci
This is a perfect little mower for somone who has a postage stamp sized yard like myself. It is easy to assemble and light weight. It has a good amount of power and didn't bog down in taller grass. I've had Black & Decker mowers in the past, but this was my first electric. A good value for the price.


5 out of 5 stars Best value for your money   March 15, 2010

I've had mine for just about 2 years and it works superbly. I'm a landscaper and only use electric tools,...I needed a mower for the clients who still have lawns. This one cuts so neatly that you will like it a lot. Now granted, with electric you give up brute power, as compared to gas, but you can work around that by adjusting the height up for tall grass, then cutting twice. Also, these do work best without a catcher mounted on the side. Looks nice, light weight, smooth running. Thanks a million to the number of folks who took the time to review this mower, as it encouraged me to buy one. I think I've finally become smooth with the extension cord dance too. LOL.


5 out of 5 stars If only everything was this amazing!   March 10, 2010

I have completely fallen in love with my new Black & Decker electric lawn mower. I am a single mom and ALWAYS hated trying to get the pull starts even started!

This mower starts at a the pull of a lever, so no screaming at the mower to start and doing angry dances in fits of vehement rage that your mower won't start.

No gas fumes so I am saving money right off on not having to purchase stinky gas that has to sit around in my shed or oil that someone forgot to put in the mower a few years ago and blew the engine!

My wonderful new lawnmower is amazing so much better and more proficient at mulching the grass and dead leaves and viney plants that were growing into my grass from the neighbors' yard (yeah they need one too!)

Its lightweight, you don't need self propelled anything its easy to maneuver around my yard even through the area's that aren't even.

Oh yeah my daughter thinks its nifty that I am being green...

Now if finding the most wonderful guy out there was as easy as purchasing this off of Amazon.com I would have life made!



3 out of 5 stars Good mower, but it didn't last long.   December 30, 2009

I bought this mower 5 years ago, and it lasted only 3 years. The motor is not well designed and its quality is low. One of the thin wire snapped off, and it's not worth fixing. Buying a new motor costs more than buying a new mower. As always, replacement parts are ridiculously overpriced. If you decide to buy this mower, and plan to use it for more than a couple years, I suggest buying 2 of them. One to use, the other one for part replacements.

If your lawn is about 5000sq ft, and you mow about twice a month, 4 months a year, this mower should be fine. But if you mow weekly and you have thick, well maintained lawn, I suggest paying more for MM875. It's more powerful and includes a bag, which costs additional $30-$40 for the LM175 model.



5 out of 5 stars Good, basic electric mower   December 28, 2009

Have used it several times. Very light, so it is easy to push. Nice not to have to deal with gas and pull starting. It is quieter than a gas mower, but still makes some noise. Cuts the grass well. I purchased the bag for it, also. The bag works fine, but could be a little bigger. It gets the job done. The cord is not that big a hassle. But, I have a small lot, 120x75. A large yard may present more of a challenge. But, I like it.
