Title: Beware of rocks with this mower!
Product review: Just started cutting my lawn for the 5th time with this mower and managed to kill it tonight. All it took was hitting one rock hidden in the grass for a sec, and -boom- it's dead. Just smoke coming out of the motor. I can't recall ever killing a gas mower this way in my 30 years of cutting grass and I know I hit a few similar or bigger rocks in the past. I'm now really torn about fixing it versus going back to gas.It's too bad 'cause up til now it was easy to use (my 10 year was cutting the grass with it [under my supervision]) and did a decent job of mulching except with heavier or wet grass.Haven't found out what the cost to repair it might be but I suspect it will run close to 50% or more of the $189 cost.
