I have an 80 year old neighbour who's still pretty fit and a keen gardener. He does struggle though with a heavy self propelled petrol mower. I think one of these would be ideal for him so I'll get him to watch your excellent review. I think his current mower weighs in at about 37k.
Yes very light. Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Very useful real world review. Well done.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Blimey Anton, you are like a kid with a new toy!! Well done though great presentation. Love the garden by the way!
So nice of you, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
👌👌👌👍.......You made my mind up NOW..Getting the wife one for her Birthday.🤫
😂😂perfect Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
The DC18SH is the older brother to the DC18RD the RD is the 'fast charger" that's why it took long :)
I have a single fast charger, what a difference it makes, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 I just found it out. I am looking to buy the lawnmower. On webshops it's 80-100 euro cheaper than in my hardware store. I noticed that the production code is exactly the same but at the end there are 2 letters difference After comparing everything i found out it was the fast charger that makes the difference in price!
I made the jump to a robot lawnmower 6 years ago. I would never waste my time doing the lawn ever again. I kept my petrol mower, and I’ve had to use it twice in 6 years due to issues with the robot. Plus my lawn looks good every day, not like crap half the week because it’s grown like mad all week and I haven’t had the time to mow it.
Robot mower next then, which one do you use? Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
@@aaanton11 I have had a Robomow MS1800 for the last 6 years, and it finally had some expensive motor problem, so I decided to just go for a baby Husqvarna Automower 105, it's their cheap and cheerful entry model, and so far, it's working really fine. I will say that I was not the first into the robot mower scene, but I could never go back, and you will find that after a few weeks, you will end up will a prettier lawn. I was surprised at how much it got mine free from weeds, moss and bald areas. A whole season with one mowing every day gives a really nice result. It's a challenge if you like stripes though. I believe Bosch does one that can do stripes, but no idea how good it is.
Wheel fell off, just over a year Old. No recommendations from here. Hopefully they will give me a spare one if it has to go in for repairs
Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hey great video. One question, is it possible to use it without the Grassbox/Mulching wedge?
Yes, absolutely Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Thank you for sharing this! Would like to ask you. How long would the battery live?
Up to 1 hour with normal use, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hi mate, how long did you run the mover for in the video?
It will run for almost an hour on the 5 amp batteries Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Hi, do the batteries that come with the mower work on drills and other tools ?
Yes all the 18v Makita tools, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
DOES IT DO MULCHING?
You can buy a mulcher Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Can be used without the bag?
Yes, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
What ah batteries come with it?
2x 5a Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Battery degradation over winter and the cost to replace them would worry me.
This is a Makita ! , I have batteries that are over 10 years old, still as good as new Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
As mentiond, it's 18650 cells, won't care as long as you don't leave them empty, then makitas bms might brick them over long storage. My oldest 3ah is from 2008, still fine.
@@Iceeeen . Almost every private buyer will leave these for 5 months of the year at various stages of discharge, just seems much more expensive than a standard electric mower.
@@bordersw1239The quality of the batteries and chargers are why all my gear is Makita.
I lost a 4ah battery at work 4 years ago, found it 3 months ago in a box of cable. it was dead flat but i popped it on the charger and it works as well as my other 4ah's🤷🏻
I heard the chargers are the only ones that properly condition (including fan cooling the batteries when they are too hot to start charging) they apparently balance the cells too🤷🏻
The reason why there are people saying tool batteries don't last, is other brands don't care if the batteries fail after a few years and many of their chargers don't condition the batteries.
Downside is, a lot of Makita tools aren't always as good as milwauke festool etc, but the battery system is miles better👍
I have never had that problem at all with any Makita batteries
Is it any good at mowing dogshit up?
No Problems there, just don't wear flip flops 😂 Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠
Works better without the bag..
