Editorial Review:

Amazon.com Product Review:
Bravo to Black & Decker for two great innovations on this electric mower. First, the flip-over handle! You get to the end of a pass, flip the handle and head back the other way in an instant. Next, users will especially appreciate 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. It’s about time. In addition, the electric 12-amp motor means hassle-free starting, no gas/oil mixes, no fumes, less noise, and no battery to charge. The cushioned handle adjusts for the user’s height, another nice touch not available on most mowers. It mulches beautifully, but if you prefer, you can purchase a side bag. Electric mowers have their naysayers, but if you’re in the market for one, you can’t beat this.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Manageable under non-ideal mowing conditions
My yard is hardly ideal for a corded electric mower. It's about six-tenths of an acre, and it's also divided into a half dozen smaller areas separated by walks, fences and flower beds. To reach out-of-the-way spots with a 100' cord, I have to plug into three different outlets. In several places the ground is uneven. There are shrubs and trees to work around, and various obstacles (like low shrubs) on which an extension cord can snag. I hesitated before ordering an electric, particularly one with ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - So Far So Good
I am very happy with my electric mower thus far. I needed something I could put in my car (Firebird) and mow a medium sized area in front of my office and some areas at my home. The light weight mower was easy to lift and the handle comes off to make it compact enough to put in the back seat and hatch area of my car. The electric wire, for my jobs does not get in the way. In fact, it presents no problem once you get used to it.

The power of the mower is not as much as I would love. When ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best thing since sliced bread
I couldn't wait to try this bad boy out. I bought a 12g 100ft extension cord from a building supply store for $75. Had no idea an extension cord could cost so much. All you really have to do after opening the box is assembling the handle and bam you ready to go. Pull the on/off lever and it turns on with out hesitation.I had to make a few practice runs to get used to dealing with the cord. The manual gives you instructions on how to deal with the cord. The flip handle also makes it soooo much easier to ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Black & Decker Lawn Hog with flip handle MM675
We purchased this lawn mower because I wanted a higher amp mower. I did not think I would use the "flip handle". My old mower had cut one strip and died so we ordered this one. The grass (weeds) was already high when we purchased the mower because we had had rain (we live in dry West Texas). The purchase arrived very quickly, the mower works beautifully (weeds were very high), but the best part was the "flip handle" that I did not think I would use. I really like that function of the mower. Saves ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Definitely powerful enough. Not perfect
I love this thing. That's why I gave it 5 stars. 4 stars on amazon usually means a product is mediocre, not "good", so I'm going by that metric. Anyway - it's not perfect. It's like an A-. The bolts to hold the handle together were machined poorly so I had to find a bolt in my garage to put it together. No big deal. The bagger attachment doesn't hold enough but it's the only one they make. Other than that, it starts, stops, doesn't require gas, doesn't make a lot of noise, and works just fine. No maintenance ...
