Ozito 3413162 PXCSDMK-418U Cordless Lawn Mower

Product Information

From the name on the box, it’s pretty clear what you’re dealing with in this kit, with the things you need to mow your lawn. We also wish the build quality was better, and that it managed to fold up more easily for storage in the shed. Battery-powered lawn mowers are similar to gas-fueled lawn mowers when it comes to vents that help cool the engine. The vents maintain an optimal temperature in the engine during use and prevent it from overheating. If your vents become clogged, your engine is more likely to overheat, preventing the lawn mower from starting.

Keep the underside of the lawn mower clean. This will help to prevent grass buildup and ensure that the lawn mower can operate at peak efficiency. Self-Propelled Mowers. A self-propelled mower is similar to a push mower, but it has a motor that helps move the mower forward. This can be a great feature if you have a large yard or if you have trouble pushing a mower. This isn’t one of the robotic mowers you can find, but given the price, you shouldn’t expect that. Robotic appliances like vacuums and mowers aren’t quite this wallet friendly. Ride-on Mowers. A ride-on mower is the best option for large yards. These have seats and are powered by gas or electricity. They're also generally more expensive than other types of lawn mowers. We came away from this mower feeling like we should have spent more to get something that felt better, that was more durable, and screamed quality as opposed to “she’ll do”.

Push Mowers. A push mower is the most basic type of lawn mower. It doesn't have any fancy features or bells and whistles - just a simple motor and blades that you push along your lawn. Push mowers are great for small yards or if you're on a budget. The majority of its range, Ozito offers a number of electric lawn mowers, including corded and cordless models. The entry level electric model is the Ozito 18V cylinder lawn mower, which is an electric hand mower model, ideal for smaller yards, or those who don’t need a lot of power. Featuring five blades and a 38cm cutting width, the model also includes a 45L catcher, four cutting heights and adjustable ergonomic handle. If you’re after a corded model for your small patch of lawn, Ozito offers the 1200W and 1500W model, with the 1500W including five cutting heights, 36cm cutting width, 38L catcher, safety start switch and thermal overload protection to prevent overheating.

Solve: If you have an issue with the start switch or suspect it might be the problem behind your lawn mower not starting, you’ll probably have to replace it. The good news is that replacing a start switch is much cheaper than replacing a motor, and you could do it by yourself or simply call a technician. You may also want to consider a manual reel mower if you have a small lawn. These mowers are typically less expensive than other types of lawn mowers and are easy to operate. If your lawn is on hilly terrain, you will need a self-propelled lawn mower with good traction. If you plan to use your lawn mower frequently, you may want to invest in a gas-powered model. A gear system would be much nicer, controllable from up top, but we suspect that has been lost to the overall cost Ozito is going for. Ozito offers one hand lawn mower model – the Push Reel Mower. Featuring a 30cm cutting width, multiple cutting heights (between 14-42mm), self-sharpening blades to help cut down on maintenance, a blade guard for additional safety, slip-resistant wheels to help you stay on course, with the option to equip an 18L catcher to help keep hold of all the clippings also available. Ozito Electric Lawn Mowers It’s remarkable how hard this thing is to build, given it’s only a few pieces of plastic, and once you’re done, you’ll probably have broken a small section off just trying to force it in place. We hope you don’t, but we definitely did.That barely makes the mower folded, and instead you need to undo the thumb screws at the bottom, disconnecting the part from the main mower body entirely. It’s clumsy and feels like it could be better designed. Folded. Kinda. Is it worth your money? Some lawn mowers also have a grass catcher attached to them. This is a bag that collects the grass clippings as the mower moves along. The grass clippings can then be used as mulch or compost.

Finally, theirs is a Spin-Stop System that leaves the engine running but stops the blade from running whenever you need to step away from the mower for a moment for your safety. Store the lawn mower in a dry, protected area when not in use. This will help to prolong the life of the battery (if you have a battery-powered one) and prevent rust or other damage from occurring. Ozito’s cordless lawn mowers includes the 18V Brushless mower, which features a 30cm cutting width, three cutting heights, 25L catcher and integrated carry handle, ideal for when you need to get it in and out of the garden shed. Also available is the 2x18V mower, which includes five cutting heights, safety start, adjustable handles, 30L catcher and a 33cm cutting width, suitable for those who have a bit more lawn to take care of.

Reel Mowers. A reel mower is a traditional type of mower that is powered by you. Reel mowers have rotating blades that cut the grass when you push the mower forward. They're great for people who want an eco-friendly option or who have small yards. So more height control would be appreciated, as would a better way of controlling that. As it is now, you need to flip the mower on its side and go in underneath, changing the height of the wheels manually.

I bought this lawn mower after I bought an Ozito brush cutter and hedge trimmer in which I was also impressed with. For instance, the build feels cheap and very plastic, almost as if the thing was a toy. There’s a plastic set of controls that almost comes off like it came out of a kids play set, while the cord connecting it looks like the plastic hose you’d hide desk cables with. This is an inexpensive lawnmower, and it really looks and feels like it, too. For added control and convenience, this mower comes with a Traction-Assist Handle, which the brand claims to adjust the speed to suit challenging areas and uneven terrain. As for grass cutting, there's a twin blade system, and you also have the flexibility of choosing between rear bagging, side discharge or recycling.Read the manufacturer's instructions carefully before using the lawn mower for the first time. This will help you understand the specific requirements for maintaining your particular model. Mower was super easy to assemble out of the box, and just went off cutting. No mess, the grass catcher did it's job and needed emptying four times - about half of our green bin full.
