So I nearly bought a used Stihl mower today. Woman's husband used it one time, and decided he didn't like mowing lawns.
The only reason I didn't, is she had the blower and weed whacker as well, and despite giving me a price on the mower, battery, and charger, I showed up to pick them up and she suddenly only wanted to sell the set.
Anyhow, here is my mini review:
-Battery had 1 bar, and I was still able to cut about 500 sq ft without issue
-it is extremely quiet and feels well built
-it picks up the clippings well, and I didn't see any left behind
-cuts well without bogging down
But my absolute FAVORITE feature, is you set the cut height with one heavy duty lever, and that sets the height for *all four wheels*.
As someone who cuts a few lawns in the neighborhood at varying heights, it's a super nice convenience feature.
When I can, I plan on getting the self propelled version and battery kit (so I will have two batteries)
If you're considering it, go for it. It's every bit as good or better than my Honda HRX
