About Makita XML03CM1 36V (18V X2) LXT Brushless 18" Lawn Mower Kit
Overall Feedback:
76% positive
86% liked its ergonomics; however, 14% experienced discomfort during prolonged use
I have noticed that the handle shape has poor ergonomics and my hands hurt within a few minutes of use.
the machine operates at full output only when it meets cutting resistance above a certain threshold.
I am getting hand cramps after holding the dead-man handle for a few minutes because it is very hard to hold.
The safety bar doesn't feel ergonomic. I can't imagine using it for an hour without getting hand cramps.
94% appreciated its relatively quiet operation
The lawn mower has a quiet mode and doesn't make much noise, which helps me avoid bothering the neighbors while mowing the lawn.
87% found it easy to maneuver; however, 13% struggled with turns or navigating around obstacles
The safety handle has a lot of resistance, making it difficult for my mom with her arthritic hands.
I am not happy with the wide stance back wheels as it makes it impossible to stay close with the mower steering into those objects and I have to adjust direction.
My lawn mower's handle is too long, making it difficult to maneuver in tight areas.
87% found it easy to maintain and clean
The mower is durable and easy to start and change battery. It also has a good grass catcher and controls.
I don't need to replace spark plugs, yank on the cord, mess with the choke, deal with gasoline smell, or keep a gas can in the garage anymore.
88% liked its grass collection capacity and efficiency
If you live in South Florida and sometimes let 3 weeks pass between lawn maintenance, it is suggested to get 4 extra batteries and 1 extra charger since this may be sufficient for a more arid climate.
88% appreciated its engine power and performance
I bought the product to test the power of electric motors and prefer electric over gas. However, I have not given it a full workout yet.
90% found it provided a clean and even cut
When I operate the machine at full output, it does a fantastic job of mowing cleanly and packing clippings into the bag.
