Took 3 charges for the batteries to “settle in” so we could mow the full lawn without a recharge, now does it with 30%+ charge remaining
So on opening the box the mower was easy to put together, and no crazy excess packaging which was refreshing. I tested the two batteries using their digital displays, both were around 85% so charged them until full to see if I could mow my medium size lawn on one charge.
The mower seemed rear heavy with the collection basket on the back but putting in the batteries balances it out. Easy to use and because it’s light it doesn’t need a self drive function. Didn’t think my lawn was too long but emptied the basket three times and managed to do the whole lawn on one charge. In fact after checking the batteries there was just over 40% left on each. Very impressed with its performance and the cut is as good if not better than the Hayter. Build quality looks very good, but guess usage will determine that. So far very impressed and glad I made the jump.
I bought this from Amazon warehouse for a reduced price, which is always worth the risk.
I found a video on YouTube which as well as reviewing the mower it also shows how to set it up which is useful for the basket.
I find the mower really good although I’ve yet to test it on very long grass but as it stands it works really well and the battery lasts a while although my lawns are not massive.
I would recommend this mower for ease in use the quality of cut/ battery life. It just makes mowing a lawn so much easier wish I would of made the jump earlier.
Wish I’d known you have to push although it is very light. Has to be fully charged to get round my small,lawn. Collects the grass well in the box reducing the emptying stops .
Charging the twin batteries was quick
Sturdy construction for plastic
Grass box fits easy
Handled my 25 x 15 yard lawn easy with half the charge left in the batteries (the grass was not too long and it has been dry)
It’s very light and easy to move
It’s quiet compared to my old chorded mower
No chord to cut, how many times did I do that?
I bought this because of reviews and the B&S motor although I didn’t know the Murry brand
I have no problems with recommending this based on my initial use but I will update this if I find any problems
No stripes or mulching but for me not an issue with two female dogs, ants and leather jackets ruining my lawn.
Brilliant we live in a semi the garden is 75yards long mostly turned to lawn which can all be cut on one charge and to recharge under two Hours with different cut Laval’s this is the tool for the job very pleased with my purchase
Very pleased with mower, easy to assemble and good battery charge
One feels under pressure to dash around the lawn before the charge runs out — sometimes i can cut front and back but lately i tend to recharge between the 2
Otherwise very happy with i
This is a great little mower, very light weight and easy to use. As its so maneuverable it actually cuts the grass in half the time it took with our old petrol mover. I would have given it 5 stars but for the grass box kept coming off due to bad design. There is however a very easy fix. Attach a bungey strap between the front of the mower and the back of the grass box. This works a treat, takes 2 seconds to take on and off and completely stops the grass box falling off.
The mower is easy to use but the grass catcher detached itself too easily. When this happened I fell over it and damaged my leg which is still healing.
The lawn mover is good and functionable, but the design of such 50 litres bag collector may have problem.
It keeps drop off from the lawn mover for every inch move. It kept drop off, thus I kept put back to its position.
Can seller provide me any solution for such annoying defects?
Easy to use – although the grass collector keeps falling off.
We have to recharge batteries in between the cut as we have a large lawn but cuts well
Lightweight, powerful & can mow my large lawn twice on one charge. Easy to change cutting height & clean. I replaced my self driving petrol mower with this and was concerned that there’s no self drive. It’s so lightweight it’s no effort even on an incline.
Firstly the mower struggles with longer or thicker grass. I found either the battery died quickly or it would shut down and need a clean before it could get started again. Also bear in mind whilst there are 2x 2.5AH batteries included, you will still get 2.5AH capacity and not 5AH.
Overall, for the price paid, I expected better performance.
With this being my first battery mower I was unsure as to how it would handle my lawn and I was most impressed. The assemble was very basic being almost primitive and it was up and running in under 10 minutes of arrival! I was too impatient to wait for the morning dew tp dry so took my brand new machine out for a test and I was thoroughly impressed. The lawmnmower is light and very easy to manouver while also feeling very sturdy in the hand. I found that you do need to make sure the bucket is attached correctly as a number of times I found fallling off due to user error. As for the batteries they did need recharging as the grass was damp and left uncontrolled for roughly 3 months however that was to be expected. I will also mention I bought this product with the rest of the 18v line up allowing batteries to be used across the tools which is very handy. This lawmower has made gardening more fun for me!
I need to recharge about 2/3 way through the job.
I’m mowing excessively at the moment because of the speed my lawn is growing at, so I’m using it twice a week and only on setting 4. So it’s a relatively high cut.
I’m finding if I leave it a week, the lawn has gown too much and is too dense. So not only does it not have the power to cut through, but the batteries run out much quicker.
It’s not a bad mower… it’s alright… but it just suffers with the issue most battery driven things do. Not enough power vs a corded or petrol one, and runs out of juice too quick.
But I’ve rated it 4* overall as it’s better than messing with a chord – especially for larger gardens, and also less weight/hassle than a petrol one.
You’ve just got to either do it often to keep the demand on the batteries down, or resolve yourself to needing to charge the batteries part way though.
Estoy encantado con la compra, todo perfecto, de echo acabo de comprar el soplador de esta marca.
Ottima durata della batteria, con una sola carica riesco a tagliare due volte il prato anche con erba alta come da foto. Motore ottimo, batterie altrettanto buone. Le ruote di plastica mi sembrano un po’ delicate per se usato con cura un rasaerba molto buono. Potrebbe fare mulching se solo venisse dotato del tappo che ad ora non disponibile.
I was a bit concerned about buying an unknown brand at this price point but after a bit of internet surfing found out that Murray are, in fact, the electric division of Briggs and Stratton, a name synonymous with lawn mowers. Looking at the price of some of the competition its hard too see how any of them present better value than this, as it comes with a charger and 2 batteries and a decent size 44cm blade.
A lot of the reviews suggest the bigger blade size makes it better for bigger gardens. As far as I can tell it just means you can cut your smaller garden a bit quicker. My garden is not massive ( about half a tennis court ) and this is perfect.
With the batteries in it is quite heavy. The assembly instructions are absolutely terrible ( and the manuals somewhat destroy the green credentials as they are about an inch and a half thick, so a lot of tries died in the making of this lawn mower ). The handle is quite difficult to adjust and to collapse down for storage.
Those minor issues aside, i would whole heartedly recommend this excellent lawn mower.
il mio primo utensile a batteria e non avrei mai pensato avessero questo livello di qualit. Batteria riesco a tagliare 2 volte il prato (poco meno di 200mq). Taglio preciso e grazie al suo poco peso e facile da manovrare.
Veramente un ottimo prodotto.
Have only used it twice, first at the end of last season when I completed my almost 200 sq mtrs garden with battery to spare and 2nd, the first cut of this season, when I ran out of juice 75% complete. Run time is quoted at 36 mins and it probably exceeded that slightly. The batteries took less than the quoted 110 mins to recharge. The much longer grass at the beginning of the season is probably the reason I could not complete the lawn without recharging.
The mower is easy to operate, the cut is good, the cutting height easy to change (5 settings), and the collection bag adequate – it is bigger than most other mowers i reviewed before buying. When I bought it I couldn’t find any replacement natteries but I see they are now available at 85 each on Amazon. This is an extortionate price, so one must hope they last the 3 years limited warranty given.
Overall, I’m pleased with the purchase. It’s expensive but so much easier to use than the corded mower I had. Why not 5 stars? The expense and because I expect that battery driven tech will continue to improve. Although I’ve not operated other battery mowers, am prepared to accept that this probably one of the best available now.
I have used this mower a couple of times now and I’m really pleased with its handling and cut.
It comes in a large cardboard box and some self assembly is required to fix the handle on and to complete the grass box. It comes with a charger and 2 batteries which take about 2 hours to reach full charge. Just insert the batteries and you are ready to mow. Just make sure the batteries are pushed in well otherwise the mower won’t start.
The mower is lightweight and is easy to push around and as such the manoeuvrability is good. There are 7 height settings but I cut my grass the number 2 and it gave a really nice even cut which looked really good. There is no roller so don’t expect any lawn stripes.
The grass box sits on two fixings on the back of the mower and is easy to remove, replace and empty. Having read a couple of other reviews I did not encounter any issues with the grass box becoming detached but then my lawn is relatively flat.
What is great about this mower is that the cordless aspect allows you to mow more quickly (no cables to avoid) and it took me about half the time to cut both my lawns. The batteries lasted about 35-40 minutes which as ample time for me but the longer your grass it appears the quicker they will drain as the mower works harder. The big advantage was the 44 cm cut which was an obvious but noticeable improvement over the old 34 cm model.
I am really impressed with my purchase and my lawns look very good.
Update – I cut both of my lawns yesterday which took about 30 minutes and the batteries still had 56% charge left. This mower has passed all my expectations, excellent.
Update (06/04/22) – I cannot rate this mower high enough I think it is that good. I have used it to make half a dozen cuts of my 2 lawns which takes about 35-40 minutes and yesterday the batteries had 66 % power left in them. I use the No. 2 height setting and it gives a really good even cut and I have had no problems at all with the grass box detaching. The grass is collected efficiently and the box is easy to empty and replace.
Rasaerba a batteria ottimo. Finalmente liberi di girare senza cavi e senza problemi di rumore, fumo e manutenzioni. Batterie di buona durata, con una carica riesco a tagliare 2 volte il mio prato di circa 100m.
Consigliato.
Thus is a great mower priced well (wait for sale don’t pay list). My garden is 8mx25m and it gets it done but batteries are empty at end so if you have larger garden you may struggle
The Murray 2 x 18 V (36 V) Lithium-Ion 44 cm Cordless Lawn Mower IQ18WM44, I reviewed this item quite a while ago and I stated “it is a great machine, I have found no problems what-so-ever with the mower”
MY BIG PROBLEN IS THAT THE REPLACEMENT BLADES ARE STILL CURRENTLY UNOBTAINABLE AND HAVE BEEN FOR ALMOST 1YR AND ARE ON BACK WITH MURRAY. SO NO KNOWING IF YOU DAMAGE A BLADE
WHEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO USE YOUR MOWER AGAIN. JUST BEWARE.
This is a brilliant mower with more height adjustments than most. It cuts time spent mowing with the wide blade grass collection bigger so less time emptying. I was a bit wary about manoeuvrability but it was so easy. With my old cordless mower after two lawns I would have to recharge, this did three and still had 68% charge. I did find the assembly a bit difficult but for a 70 year old woman what do you expect! Wish I had got one earlier. Absolutely love it.
The mower is lightweight, but does my lawn perfectly. Easy to use and does both my lawns and still has half battery life left.
Would like to have given it 5 stars but unfortunately found the grass bin didn’t fit very well. Kept falling off the back. Otherwise, good mower.
Really enjoyed using this Mower. Got 140 ft long lawn garden and i mowed the the whole lawn without losing the charge. Still about 40% still on the batteries. after. Very light and easy to manoeuvre.
I have only used this mower twice but I am very pleased with it so far. I have encountered no problems and it easily cuts my grass on one battery charge
I was a bit hesitant to but this lawnmower. Two main reasons was I wasn’t too sure on buying a battery powered mower and secondly I’d never heard of the make. I have used it for the first time today and it’s made mince meat of my previous well known electric powered mower. Took me approximately half hour to do a good sized garden which usually takes me around 1.5 hours. I didn’t even feel I was pushing the mower it was so easy to use and light compared to my other mower. When is finished I checked the battery and it was 65% still left!! Wouldn’t hesitate to buy again.
Should have bought one years ago the batteries only take an hour to charge and you can go agai
This review is about the 37cm version.
There were no assembly instructions in the box. I found it easy to assemble but some might not.
The trickiest part was properly asembling the grass catcher.
It is easy to use and the light weight means it is easy to get in to the more difficult parts of the garden.
There is a 3 LED display on the handle that gives a crude indication of the battery state. On the batteries there is a digital display that shows the charge more precisely.
The operation of the button and safety handle could be better. It often takes me more than one go to get it to start.
It is supposed to be capable of doing 300 sq m but I think you would have to be an Olympic sprint athlete to do that before the battery goes flat. I have 160 sq m and the battery goes down to 35%.
The batteries charge quite quickly.
I don’t have a big lawn but I cut my fathers lawn too, this allows me to cut both, twice on a single charge.
I like everything about it, the cut, the grass collection box is big can cut the grass without having to constantly stop and empty it.
Great bit of kit.

Rasaerbe potente, leggero e molto efficace giardino di 600mq batterie ok
This has to be one of the best mowers I’ve owned from mains powered to petrol. This mower just tackles the grass with no issue. on a single charge it gets through both front and rear lawns even when cutting down in steps.
Best thing no long power cables required.
Battery life lasts long enough to cut front and back gardens. It’s light weight easy to use and noise level is low.
