Yea with the smaller mower you've gotta mow every week at the latest and ideally sooner or use a PGR to regulate growth so then you're just cutting the tips off the grass and that's it. It only really works for really well maintained lawns which most people buying an entry level mower can't be bothered doing. It only takes missing an extra week or some decent rainfall to boost growth and then you're screwed, absolutely not worth it for the effort required.
18v isn't enough, I have a worx 36v twin batteries, has eco and turbo mode.i also have a petrol mower to do a deep cut once a month or so as electric is light and only starts to cut down once catcher gets fuller. But weekly mowing with the electric is light and easy and zero maintenance. I can get through relative large front and back on 2 2ah batteries in eco mode.

I bought this mower 2 weeks ago - was stoked on the price as I saw the one for $299 and couldn't see any difference. Then, I used it. Brutal. Absolutely the biggest POS, which is saying something, as we previously had the corded 33cm Ryobi. The grass was not long (less than 5cm growth), nor is it Buffalo or anything hardcore. I had to restart it upwards of 30 times on the area I mowed, which was approximately 20msq. Not exaggerating. I gave up and left the other two thirds of the lawn and read the reviews on Product Review, which reiterated my experience. Took it back to Bunnings this past weekend and spoke to the guy and he said it's only really meant for tiny patches of grass. He suggested the $399 Brushless 18V 33cm, which I went with. Bonus: when I got to the returns desk, the cashier wrote off the $200 difference as "customer satisfaction". Christmas miracle! Husband used it Sunday and it is so much better. Just have to make sure that you have 2-3 of the large batteries fully charged ready to go.
