You did such an amazing and thorough review of this mower! I just purchased this exact same mower about 2 weeks ago. My review should be online tomorrow. My review is nowhere as good as yours though lol. I absolutely love this mower so far!!!
THANK YOUUUU !!! You are such a DAD !!!! Lol ! This video was perfect. I appreciate the review! I just bought mine today. You answered all of my questions
As a single mother whose very independent, I just want to give you a huge “THANK YOU!” for this very detailed & thorough video. I wouldn’t have been able to assemble or figure this thing out without it!!! Thanks again!
I just bought the 18" version of this mower, (Walmart $247) and it is awesome! first off, I have a very small lawn to mow so this is perfect for my needs and as long as the battery (yes it's all about the battery!) keeps a charge once winter has passed and summer returns all is good but if it doesn't and seeing as how the battery (Amazon) is $140 all bets are off and I will be pissed! I just mowed my lawn, and it was about 3" high, and this beast took it right down. now let's get back to the battery.... first it takes about 4 hours to charge the battery and as I said it's going to cost you at least $140 for a replacement if needed! if you only need about 30-40 minutes of mowing time this is for you but after that it can get expensive, just dont forget to mount the side shoot onto the side of the mower because if you use it to mulch it will run your battery down faster as opposed to using the shoot and letting the grass out the side.
Both the Hart and the Ryobi are in their third year of use. I own both because I purchased the Ryobi for myself and I purchased the Hart to cut my elderly Father in Law's grass. I would probably purchase both again. I don't think I will ever go back to a gas mower they have come a long way. When you hit a area where the grass is a little thicker or higher they automaticly increase their motor speed to deal with it just like as gas mower. The handle folds easily and you can stand them up on end so they take up less space. Also when you finish mowing they are so light and you don't have to worry about gas leaking out so you just put it on it's side and clean out under them.
Something I forgot is that the batteries do not interchange between the Hart and the Ryobi, and I wish they sold replacement blades for Hart mowers in Walmart stores. They sell replacement blades for their gas mowers but not for Hart mowers. Hart trimmer heads on Walmart shelves would be nice as well.
I've had this mower for over a year now and I live in the desert I have half an acre that is all dirt/rock/gravel and with a lot of weeds. I have not had the time or money to landscape that area yet, but we want to keep the weeds down to help keep the desert critters out of our area. So far this has worked perfectly. Even over rough area's with a lot of rock and gravel, no issues and have not yet seen any chips in the blade either.
Very cool video, I have been researching mowers for a while. Like your son I just bought my first house and needed a mower and ended up purchasing this model as well. I have had great experiences with all of my other electric hart tools, from trimmers to drills, and I expect nothing less from the mower. I do not abuse my tools though and only use them for household tasks, so not sure how they would hold up in a commercial environment, but I don’t think that’s their main target demographic. My only gripe so far is that the magnet on the battery cover on mine is missing, so when I tip it to carry it certain ways, it hangs open. I will not be returning it for that though, I’m sure I can figure out a little fix. Tomorrow I will do my yard, today is a bit wet. Same as well, I used a corded electric at my grandmas about 10 years ago and it got the job done but definitely wasn’t a great experience. I was amazed to see electric rideons as well
This isn't self propelled is it? I guess it's small enough it wouldn't be too hard to push till the bag is full. I think you should order a second blade and any part that receives wear however. I got their 20v trimmer, love it, but some parts are no longer available. So I've learned to look for the weaknesses in Hart products. I may buy it, still deciding over a self propelled gas mower though. Nice walk through.
This isn't self propelled. This mower is so lightweight, it doesn't need it. And it'll be in mulch mode permanently. The bagging system will never be used.
Mine work for 2 years fine then when I put the battery in it it starts and runs two feet and stops every time.... What's wrong who knows.... I have any idea please let me know.... Thank you and have a blessed day other than that the last 2 years of ran great I really liked it......
I just bought this today. It will be delivered for free tomorrow with Wal-Mart+. Did you find out what the red protrusion is underneath the lid? It is a little loud and sounds rough. I just hope it is easier to turn that my big Honda self a propelled gas mower. The Honda's auto choke doesn't work anymore so it is also very hard to start.
Mine works OK, but I also own a Ryobi, and even though they are supposed to be made by the same company, the Ryobi feels better while in use. Also the Ryobi can be set to cut lower than the Hart. The only problem I have had with either is the Left side of the Hart's handle repeatedly gets loose. I also own A Hart and a Ryobi 40 volt trimmers and they both work well but here I would give the nod to the Hart trimmer. My advice is to not buy the auto feed string version of either one because every time you stop the trimmer it advances the line whether you need it or not so then when you start it again you hear the line hitting the cut off and a lot of line gets waisted.
Hi I'm having the same problem with my HART 40-Volt Cordless 20-inch Push Mower (1) 6.0 Ah Lithium Ion Battery like it'll run for a few seconds, then it will automatically turn itself off The handles are locked in. Place the keys in place and the batteries and place. Like when I pull the battery out and kind of push it back in there a little bit harder. It'll run for a few seconds and it stops and have to keep doing the same process over and over again. Can you help out with that?
Hi! My battery NEVER last any more than 6 to 10 minutes! It stops soooooo much and I have to keep restarting again. I Hope it’s something I’m doing wrong or I have just wasted $300.00. PLEASE HELP!
You did such an amazing and thorough review of this mower! I just purchased this exact same mower about 2 weeks ago. My review should be online tomorrow. My review is nowhere as good as yours though lol. I absolutely love this mower so far!!!
Can't wait to see your review of it. 👍
Seems very similar to my 21" EGO brand push mower...
THANK YOUUUU !!! You are such a DAD !!!! Lol ! This video was perfect. I appreciate the review! I just bought mine today. You answered all of my questions
Great!

I just purchased this lawnmower today from Walmart on clearance for $219! They only had 2 left on the shelf!
That's a great price!

I've never had any gas mower increase its speed in tall grass. Been mowing for 50 years now.
High quality video, well produced, great information. Keep up the great work!
Thanks!

Buy a magnet and install it yourself. Problem solved. 😁
Got my 500.00 hart mower for $154.00.
Aren't sales great? 😁
Good for your son buying a house young
Thank you! So very well done! Mine just arrived today and you just helped a perfect assembly!
You're welcome!
looks to me like it isn't even cutting anything. Am I the only one?
@@StephaniewickerWicker yeah, pretty much. His lawn wasn't super tall, but it hadn't been cut in months.
The HOA is already hounding you and you just moved in?? Hope you go to the meetings and say something to those tyrants.
You realize that this is my son's house and this happened nearly a year ago?
@@VacLab Yup
The Hoover mower. 😂😂😂
Yup, TTI to the rescue!
Most of the Hart products are rebadged Ryobi or Hoover products as they are all TTI. So it close to an equal product from what I have heard.

Try a different battery and/or charger.
Thank you. Just got one today. 👍🏽

More info is probably in the manual.
The red protrusion is the key.
I have the 18 inch, just bought this season. Now won't start. Of course Hart has no customer service on the weekend.
Can you take it back to Walmart?
Mine works OK, but I also own a Ryobi, and even though they are supposed to be made by the same company, the Ryobi feels better while in use. Also the Ryobi can be set to cut lower than the Hart.

So far, the Hart trimmer doesn't quite advance the line fast enough while in use. It's close though.
Try $400.00 to buy a new battery to replace that one that's what I was told!
You were lied to. Current prices are $215 for the 6A battery and $130 for the 4A battery. Both would work just fine.
18 inch mower with 40v is not enough
It's at least twice as much as he needs. But others might need more if the lawn is bigger.
