I’ve had the Earthwise #50118 for about a month. It is easy to use, cuts well and is reasonably quiet. I really
like the simple, one-step height adjustment. It’s my first corded mower and it takes a little bit of getting
used to maneuvering with the extension cord, but it’s not really a problem. Stopping and starting is a breeze.
There are no gas fumes or gas cans to be bothered with. I’m pleased.

LOVE IT!
I have this mower and I love it. I was hesitant to buy a mower with a cord but you know what? It’s just like vacuuming.

Nice Mower
I recently purchased this mower for my small yard and have been quite happy with it. I previously returned a Black & Decker mower because it was defective, so I decided to try a…

I really enjoy this lawn mower. There are some place that the lawn tractor just does get or do a very good job on.

If I could give this mower 10 stars I would. I live on a sloping, uneven lot in Colorado, with some steep pitches. As a 65 year old woman, I wanted the lightest possible mower with no maintenance hassle. Battery operated or gasoline engine mowers would be too heavy. I wheel this around like a toy, often one handed as I brush shrubs or flowers out of the way. It does a beautiful job on the front lawn. But I also put it to the acid test yesterday, and cut the rough area on the steep back of my property. This mower went through 16 to 20 inch high grass and weeds (slowly so it would mulch thoroughly), shredded a large sprinkler head (ugh!) and cut through juniper branches. It never stopped, and only slowed a little when I hit a really big pile of viney weeds to mulch through. I ran it on the highest setting, but it was great to be able to lower it with a quick and easy touch when I wanted to. It’s very easy to stop and start. What a wonderful change from the pull to start gas mower! Also, it never clogged no matter what I put under it, just mulched this large amount of organic matter into particles so small they aren’t visible. Be aware if you buy it that a cord does not come with it. Also, delivery from The Outdoor Store/Dixie Sales was quick: ordered May 30 pm and received June 4 am. July 14, 2009 update: I didn’t know an amp from a watt when I bought this. At first I used a 16 gauge 100 foot extension cord I had for Christmas tree lights. It seemed to run OK, but I could have damaged the motor. So just got the Woods 2885 Yellow Jacket 100-Foot 12/3 SJTW Yellow 15 Amp/125 Volt Rated Outdoor Extension Cord with PowerLite PlugRated Outdoor Extension Cord with PowerLite Plug and used it for the first time last night. With a 15 amp rating it has plenty of power for this 12 amp mower. It was absolutely no more difficult to move around, and the Alert Stamping 7000WR Pro-Reel Cord Carrier is great for tidy storage, easy to wind and unwind. Highly recommend both these products, too.

We had read the reviews of the Earthwise 18-inch #50018 … and couldn’t tell what was different about this one.
… except the PRICE.
I’m guessing this is the updated model and it lives up to all the positive reviews of it predecessor.
The cord clip near the handle keeps it from ever coming unplugged. The automatic shut-off handle is a nice safety feature.
I’m not sure if the rear “mud flap” guard has been altered (see earlier review of the 50018) but it was no inconvenience at all. In fact, it actually helps when pulling the mower backward. It brushes against the nap of any grass that had been flattened down when going forward, so you get it on the return trip.
Easy to adjust height. Easy to clean. I’m very pleased we bought this one.

Electric Lawn Mower
I was in no hurry for this Lawn Mower. My wife wanted an electric mower and the Earthwise seemed like a good choice.

Beware - After 3 months of use, the front right axle broke away from the mower.
After using this mower every 2 weeks for 3 months (6 times), the front right axle cracked away from the mower. There is no way to reattach this piece.

Great Buy!
Bought this mower in hopes that an electric mower would be better than a gas mower. For the price, I couldn’t get a better deal.

Needs to have a lower height setting
Nice mower. Mulches well - don’t waste money on a bag. Needs to adjust to a lower setting so the grass could be cut shorter.

Out w/ the reel mower and in w/ the real mower!
I purchased my 1st single family home with a good size back yard late last summer. I had the intention of being green when purchasing a reel mower, but the drawbacks outweighed…
