Sun Joe MJ401C-PRO 14in 28V Push Lawn Mower

This thing is insanely lightweight. My wife calls it a stroller lawnmower. Since it collects on the back it’s easy to get into and out of small spaces. They are sold out everywhere but if you can find a side grass chute instead of the bag it’s also nice. Battery lasts for my roughly 3/4 acre. Really the only issue I have with it is that it is so lightweight that I’ll forget sometimes not to lean into it too much or the front end lifts up. So happy not to have to deal with gas/oil, and engine problems… having to take a carburetor apart. Having a bulky loud smoke spewing monstrosity is no more!!! UPDATE 02/27/24: I was looking at my old reviews and wanted to give this review an update after having it for years. First off, I still have it and still use it as my main lawnmower and still love it. Secondly, a few things do need to be addressed. This comes with no side chute to spew the clippings, just a bag on the back which is TERRIBLE unless you have a yard the size of a bedroom. Almost every row I did it would fill up and need to be taken off to be dumped. When I got this a few years ago it took me about a month to find a side chute to order from Home Depot for $20, but dear god was it worth it! They might have them on Amazon now but they didn’t back then. Since putting it on I’ve never gone back to the tiny collection bag. Another somewhat issue which I’m not docking any stars for since I assumed this before even purchasing it from it being a small electric mower is it does not do great in thick spots. Too thick it cuts off, but usually it will just suddenly kick into high gear sounding like it’s about to take off into the sky. When I go into this denser area in my yard that is maybe 8ftx15ft and it goes into this high gear mode spinning at least twice as fast I just quickly go through this spot and it cuts it fast and clean. I don’t know if there are long term problems to staying in this mode but as soon as I’m done with that area I let off the handle and just restart it so it’s back to normal mode and to this day still do this and it works great. I have learned, however, that this high gear mode drains the battery hard! Save it for hard spots and do it fast. Being somewhat weak it also does fine going over little twigs but anything bigger than that will trigger high gear mode. This mower is perfect for me but take all of this into consideration before buying. One thing I really do wish for this mower was for it to be a few inches wider as it is very narrow. I got it on sale on here for $100 and it was money very well spent.
