Amazon.com Product Description
Quiet, lightweight, convenient, clean: Black & Decker has built a great mower for the homeowner. This Black & Decker 18-inch electric mulching mower features an electric 9-amp motor that is plenty powerful for the average homeowner's yard without the hassle of pull-cord starting, mixing gas and oil, running out of fuel, smelly fumes or pollution. Because it it's so light (just 39 pounds), even the least brawny homeowner can handle this cutter without trouble. Another nice feature is the one-touch lever that raises and lowers all four wheels at once from 1 inch to 3-1/2 inches, saving the trouble of adjusting each wheel's height. Assembly is minimal with no tools required. It it's a great mulcher, but if you prefer to bag, you can add the side bag attachment that's sold separately. This electric mulching mower has an 18-inch cutting deck, is made of tough polymer, and comes with a removable discharge chute, built-in mulch door and combo blade for mulching. This product is backed by a lifetime guarantee. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

 It'll cut your grass just fine July 29, 2001

Before I bought my mm275 mower I was unsure whether I would want to put up with yet another electric mower. In particular, would it be able to hack through the thick grass better than our old tired mower? The answer is, yes, it does, even though it has the lower power 9 amp motor. It is quiet, it starts with no effort (well, mostly, more on this later) and it doesn't stink. And it cuts the grass at a pretty capable rate. I can walk at almost normal speed when the grass is 2-3 inches above the blade.To use an electric mower you have to have electrical outlets that are not much more than 100 feet from every part of your lawn. You have to mow in dry grass only. And you have to not mind doing the cord dance, which doesn't bother me. This mower has one problem, which is the switch. After half a summer of operation, the on-off switch on our mower is almost worn out. Pretty soon it isn't going to turn on anymore. This may be due to the "revving-up games" that my kids played before we became wise to the situation. Black and Decker have a replacement switch back-orderered for me, and I have reason to believe that with more judicious use of the switch (and a 12 gauge extension cord rather than 14 gauge) this next switch will probably last a lot longer. If it doesn't, you'll see a much less positive review here next year, and I'll be turning my mower off by unplugging the cord.
 A good deal. August 25, 2003

I rate this as one of the best purchases I ever made. It cuts quite well and has never bogged down in any grass. My wife loves it because starting the mower is simply a matter of turning on the switch. Our neighbors look on the whole thing as kind of weird since it looks so odd and doesn't have the roar of a gas engine. We look at our neighbors and feel sorry for them as they billow smoke, noise and as they wrestle their gas monsters. We especially feel sorry for them when they have to shut down the mower, go do something else, and then yank their hearts out on the starting rope.It takes a while to develop a technique for dealing with the extension cord but, once developed, it becomes second nature. It can't be used when the grass is wet. I have had it now for three years and have no complaints. The blade is quite easy to remove and sharpen. It mulches quite nicely and I have never attached the bag that came with it. When and if it wears out I will replace it with another similar type.

This mower is fantastic! Compared to our old mower, it is very easy to push. It starts just by holding up a handle and is much quieter than a gas mower. It mulches the grass so well that you can't even see it on the grass, only on the walkway. We wish we had this mower years ago. I highly recommend this.
 Brand new yard gets 1st cut. September 7, 2002

First of all, the mower was delivered faster than I had expected, especially since I used Super Saver Shipping. It was easy to assemble...took me about 10 minutes tops. I have an upward slope in my backyard, and even with tall unmown grass, the mower was up to the task. I figured it would be a good mower under regular conditions, but it exceeded expectations by handling the hill. In fact, its lack of a gas engine made it lighter and easier to maneuver. At the end of the afternoon, I was pleased with the look of my yard. Make sure you have an ample amount of extension cord and all is well!

After my husband's death, I moved into a small house, but there was still minimal yard to keep mowed. I had to rely on family or pay to have my yard mowed. I am still able to walk and get around and felt I could still mow. My biggest problem was starting the mower. When I saw this mower I felt it was the answer. Sure enough when it arrived I took it out of the box , read the directions and in a short time I was mowing the mower is light and easy to push. No more gas cans or oil etc. I mow at my pace and can stop at anytime to rest or move something and then with a simple squeeze of the handle I am off again. The electric cord is not a problem I followed the suggestion in the guide and found it is simple to mow and not get tangled up in the cord. Another feature I love is the adjusting wheels some of my lawn is heavier than others. With a simple flip of the leaver and I can adjust the height of the blade. I am saving at least $25.00 a week , and no longer have to depend on others to mow, Not to mention getting some much needed excercise.
