I've used this mower to mow my .75 acre, twice, it was great, but it took two days, because I had to charge the battery overnight, I have since ordered a spare battery. Great Product. LB

I bought the Neuton mower when I moved into my new home last year... I got the upgrade package with the bag, trimmer, extra battery, etc... well worth the money.

I have the previous model and have owned it for a number of years. I got the mower as part of a gas-mower trade-in program run by our local electric company. I think it cost me $100 - $150 dollars with the trade-in. It's probably been at least 4-5 years so I don't remember. I've never had a problem with the model that I have. It does have the narrower cutting path but it just means a little more walking. Our old gas mower was hard to start - this mower is so much easier to start. I would never go back to a gas mower. If I ever have to replace my mower, I'll look for the latest Neuton. I hope the one I have lasts for many more years!

We have just used our Neuton CE 6.2 for the first time. Those who are shopping for this item should be aware that it is different from the earlier Neuton mower, and not just in that it is wider. The blade has been redesigned to raise the grass better and to mulch better. The poor mulching on the smaller Neuton was a common complaint we read when shopping for our new mower. We have been very satisfied with the mulching performance so far.

This morning we had a problem with the safety key. The Neuton comes with a key that must be inserted under the cover before the mower will start. It also serves as a circuit breaker if needed. The problem we have is not with the circuit tripping, however. When mowing, the safety key is working its way out of it's slot in the mower, causing the mower to dip into the yellow on the battery indicator, and the blade to slow down, then once the key either works its way out or is getting poor enough connection to trip the breaker then the mower stops. Called Neuton- their customer service is really easy to reach most of the time, usually little or not wait to speak to someone. They suggested that we use a pair of pliers and squeeze together the brackets that hold the safety key in. After doing that repeatedly with little results (key works its way out about every 10 feet or so, worse on hills), we called back and they offered to replace the mower. We will probably try that. I love the mower. It is quiet, easy to push despite the heavier weight of the 6.2 model, and of course it smells much better, too- just fresh cut grass. We mow very high- about 3 inches tall to conserve water and help the lawn fight the weeds off without herbicides and the Neuton has a nice high setting. Unfortunately the problem we had this morning eventually prevented use of the mower without stopping every couple of steps and my husband ended up just using the last of the tank of gas in the gas mower to do the back yard. Will probably take a couple weeks to get the new mower- shipping from Neuton is kind of slow, took about 2 weeks to get the mower but they said when I ordered it that it could be 3 to 4 so I assume it does take longer for some areas.

Customer service says that this is a problem that a few of the mowers have had but that it is not a common problem. For now I gave the product four stars, because the little we've seen between stops and starts it works great! If it wasn't for this problem would have given 5 easy. Will update once we have the new one or the issue resolved.

We actually have the previous model which is smaller and that is the only problem that we have with ours. Mowing takes a bit longer with ours since it's not as wide, but I will never go back to any other mowing! We can mow earlier in the morning and later at night because it is so quiet. We have a back up battery, but we can mow 2-3 times on one fully charged battery. Our yard is 3/4ths of an acre. Maintenance includes sharpening the blade and rinsing off the mower before storing in the winter. It is light and easy for me to control, and our neighbors are always asking questions and fawning over it. We have the extra edging accessories, but haven't taken the time to try them out yet.
