Ample for my 60 square metres or so.Weight15kg in the box. Feels light as a feather at the handle when assembled. Compared to my outgoing, trusty, petrol, 46cm, rear roller beast of 15 years this is like cutting the grass with a yard brush! It is light and manoeuvrable. What a breeze.Visual AppealWhat a cracker. Love the silver, black and green. See my pictures assembled in the kitchen. I actually stood with my arms folded in satisfaction and admired the mower for quite a while.First Cut Of 60 Square MetresLawn ConditionsMy grass was long in summer. (Due to weeks of rain!) I waited for a dry day.I waited a while. I chose to cut on a dry morning after overnight rain. I had a few hours window before the next showers. My grass was ranging from 4 to 6 inches in height by this time and the base was wet. It was like the first cut of spring and a good benchmark. I chose mowing level 4.My lawns are split. A simple square cut, and tricky runs around lighting posts and swings. After the sad passing of my petrol mower. I borrowed a 36cm cabled mower. Cut, edging and tidy up took an hour or so on the cable.Mower PerformanceThe Murray decimated that one hour time. I finished both lawn cuts, the simple square lawn and the tricky one in only 7 minutes 10 seconds with 96 and 95% charge left in the batteries. I made only two trips to the wheelie bin with cuttings in the ample 50L grass box. The edging and clean up took the usual time. But the mowing was a doddle.Freedom To MowThe mower was straight out of the shed and into action. No petrol required. No electric cables to set up (and avoid!). Light and easy – the blade felt powerful in action. I moved at a good pace and the grass was cut well, even in the wet(ish) conditions.Run Time & Battery ChargingObviously I am going to get a number of mows out of 1 charging cycle. At the time of writing I do not know the charging duration of depleted batteries. The manual states the mower can accomplish 640 square metres of mowing in 36 minutes. I believe it. I managed around 60 square metres in 7 minutes 10 seconds with varying levels of mowing difficulty. There was 95 and 96% charge remaining in the batteries. The question is: will I get 5 more mows out of the batteries? …watch this space!UPDATEMOW No.1: 96 and 95% charge remaining, level 4, 2 grass buckets1.5 week intervalMOW No.2: 75 and 76% charge remaining, level 3, 2 grass buckets2 week intervalMOW No.3: 56 and 57% charge remaining, level 3, 1 grass bucketOverallVery pleased with my purchase.I have limited time. This mower offers me opportunist mowing at the drop of a hat in 7 minutes. It is an attractive mower. Light, manoeuvrable, powerful with good grass collection capacity. The 44cm cutting width means less runs up and down. Long battery life. Good run time and guarantee. I am happily leaving petrol and cables behind.

The Murray 18V Lithium-Ion Cordless Lawnmower has been a game-changer for my lawn care! It's lightweight and easy to manoeuvre, which is perfect for my medium-sized garden. The cordless design means no more worrying about extension cords or running over wires—just charge it up and go.The battery life is surprisingly good. I can mow my entire lawn on a single charge, and it recharges quickly. It also has enough power to handle thicker patches of grass without getting bogged down, which I didn't expect from a battery-powered mower.Assembly was a breeze, and I love how compact it is for storage. If you're looking for a low-maintenance, eco-friendly option that doesn't compromise on performance, this Murray mower is a fantastic choice. Highly recommended 5 stars from me.

I dropped a star because the grass box kept falling off, I had to thrash it with a hammer and now its fine! The batteries last well, and if you charge them up after you have mowed the lawn and take them off the charger, they are still fully charged two weeks later, and probably would be for many more weeks. I find it easy to use and very light which is great as I am getting on a bit. Assembly wasn`t all plain sailing and I got the screw on side things the wrong way round after following a video on youtube where the guy did the same. There are lots of height settings which is handy if you`ve let the grass get too long. It`s fairly quiet-ish and is such a luxury having no power cable to drag along and get in the way. All in all I am very pleased with the mower, it has made the job so much easier and considerably quicker, so I can avoid the nosey neighbours more easily. I have only used it 3 times so far and will update this review if anything changes.UPDATE , I have had the mower a little over a year now. I have since moved house to one with more lawns, some of which are a bit rough but not overly so. I am now realizing the batteries are not that good after all once they have to work a bit harder (not much). So I decided to buy two more batteries so I can at least get the whole job done in one go as it takes 2 hours to charge them up. Low and behold the 5Ah batteries are no longer available anywhere. So I have no choice but to buy the 2.5 ones instead which I presume will last even less time. Plus i am scared the company go bust and I can`t get the batteries any more.On a brighter note, I still love the mower, it is so light and easy to manage. Yes the box falling off can still be an issue from time to time, but it`s not as bad as when I first got it (following my adjustment with the trusty hammer). I will update again if anything develops ......
