Title: Be Careful With This Mower
Product review: Pros: Easy to use, light, no gas, no maintenance.Cons: Flimsy. Even though the motor shaft on this mower is metal, the deck is made of plastic. I was mowing around a tree and the blade hit a small root that was sticking up out of the ground about 1 inch. This was enough force/bend the whole blade and shaft which sent the blade careening up into the mower deck. I thought the mower was going to be damaged beyond repair as the incident caused the shaft to be out of alignment. But the whole thing is so flimsy, I was able to manipulate it back into place. Plus I had to replace the part which is called the "fan." This part goes between the deck and the blade and got busted up when the blade hit the root.Needless to say the mower is still working. But I regret purchasing it. If you are used to a mower with a metal deck, you need to be really careful that you don't hit anything with the blade.
