Design – Very user friendly

---

The Earthwise 60420 20/18 -Inch 40-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Electric Lawn Mower is a lot better than many other mowers on the market. The pros definitely outweigh the cons.

Positive feedback

• The 7 inch and 9-inch wheels at the front and back respectively help the mower to move easily during use.
• The handle has a comfortable grip
• The convenient battery indicator lets you know how much power you have left
• It is very easy to unpack and assemble. You require zero tools to get this done
• Has a great looking, strong steel deck
• The user can adjust the height of the mower from 1.5 to 4 inches
• Height adjustment is made simpler. All you have to do is push on the lever
• It has a push to start mechanism
• You get great cutting width – 21 inches or 18 inches depending on the cutting deck of the mower you pick. This means that you can get the work done faster
• It is a lot lighter than most electric lawn mowers at 53 lbs
• It has a sleek looking design
• It has the convenience of two batteries upon purchase

Negative feedback

• Not self-propelled
• Front of the deck has a lip piece that scoops up grass as you go along and might get stuck.

Power – What kind of power should you expect from the Earthwise 65821 58 Volt 3-in-1 Cordless Electric Push Lawn Mower?

---

The Earthwise 60420 is a relatively powerful mower. At 40 volts and 4Ah, you get 160 watts every hour. Enough power to get the job done? Well, let’s look at how it performs…

Performance? – Outstanding

---

Can the 40V 21 inches Earthwise 60420 get you a clean cut? Will it tackle your thick lawn?

It does a pretty good job! Especially if all you have to do is a maintenance cut. If you have a quarter of an acre of grass to work through, then you would have no battery problems. The mower has six cutting positions, a minimum cut height of half an inch and a maximum cut height of 4 inches.

Additional qualities worth taking note of:

The good:

1. No stalling especially on simple maintenance cuts
2. Very convenient height adjustment
3. It is very quiet during use
4. Blade speed automatically increases when the grass is thick
5.  Sideways discharge and bagging work well. Hard to find electric mowers that mulch well.
6. Great manicured cut
7. Long battery life that can go for up to 55 minutes

The negative

1. Recharging the two batteries takes two hours
2. The weight of the mower when combined with that of the bagged grass becomes too much to push around the yard (can get to 70 lbs) but hey,  empty half-way if it gets too heavy or make it a workout session.
3. Okay but not a great mulcher.

Efficiency and ease of use

---

You will not have any trouble whatsoever getting started once you purchase this mower. Anyone can unpack and assemble it and the entire process requires no tools. It is easy to maneuver around the lawn but it might get stuck in thick grass because of the lip at the front that I mentioned before.

So I said it is simple to use right? What exactly is simple?

-You get to adjust the height to your preference using just one simple lever for all wheels that do not take muscle work.

– Detaching and reattaching the batteries from and back into their compartments is pretty easy

– The push to start mechanism is very modern and efficient

– The discharge bag is easy to empty and refit. No hiccups here

– All you have to do to check battery power status is look at the indicator

What is not so simple:

-Recharging the two batteries takes a whooping two hours

– The mower gets very heavy as the discharge bag fills up

Durability – how long can you expect the Earthwise 58-volt cordless electric mower to last?

---

Love the steel deck, sturdy-looking wheels and overall feel of the mower.

Ease of locating spare parts

---

It seems relatively easy to get spare parts from the manufacturer for this mower. The contact email and phone number on the website can help facilitate this. Battery, blades, and chargers are sold on Amazon.

Warranty

---

The Earthwise 60420 20-Inch 40-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Electric Lawn Mower comes with a two-year warranty.

Quality of customer service

---

There is sufficient contact information on the manufacturer website which allows you to make inquiries about virtually anything.

Overall Value

---

I would purchase this mower if I had a small or medium-sized lawn.

The pricing of the Earthwise 60420 20-Inch 40-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Electric Lawn Mower is great compared to what you get. At $427.00 (Check current price here!), two batteries and good performance, I would say you get a pretty good bargain for your money with this cordless lawnmower.

The batteries and chargers can be used in other Earthwise tools with similar voltage also,  so if you already have any of their 40V products, go ahead and add this to the collection.
