Neuton CE 6.3 19-Inch 36-Volt Cordless Electric Discharge/Mulching/Bagging Lawn Mower With Removable Battery










Product Description
The Neuton CE 6 Mower gives you the powerful performance of a gas mower with convenience of battery technology. And because it is battery-powered it is also easy to operate. Winner of the 2009 Organic Gardening Editors' Choice Award, the Neuton CE 6 is a welcome relief from the arm-yanking pull-starts, the fumes, noise, and vibration of a gas lawn mower. Start this 19" cut mower with the push of a button and mow for up to 1 hour on a single charge. Adjust the cutting height from 1.2" - 3" with a single lever. The 10" rear wheels and 7" front wheels roll easily over rugged terrain. The 750W motor doesn't use gas or oil, it never needs a tune-up, and it runs clean. It produces no pollution or carbon emissions - and the battery is virtually 100% recyclable. Perfect for lawns up to 1/3 acre on a single charge. Unlike other battery mowers with built-in batteries that require you to stop mowing to recharge, if you need more time with a Neuton Mower just drop in an optional spare battery and keep mowing. There's no need for the hassle of an extension cord. The 3-in-1 Neuton CE 6 Mower comes with everything you need to start mowing: rear grass collection bag, side discharge chute, mulching plug, 240 watt-hour battery, battery charger and safety key. The optional Trimmer/Edger attachment eliminates the need for a second piece of equipment and gives your yard and walkways a beautiful, clean finish. At only 69 lbs. and half as noisy as an average gas mower, the Neuton CE 6.3 is easy on you and the neighborhood. The battery recharges on about 10 cents worth of electricity - so the Neuton CE 6 is also easy on your wallet. The approximate cost to operate a gas mower (including gasoline, oil, spark plugs, filters and tune-ups) for 4 years is $260. Four years of mowing 28 times per year with a Neuton Mower is only $11.20! You'll save almost $250!! All Neuton Mowers are backed by a 2-year warranty and Neuton's own customer service technicians, web site and live chat.

CustomerReviews

Stay Away.
I've had this for about a year - actually the 6.2 model. I've had nothing but problems with this mower - there's nothing more frustrating than getting ready to mow the yard and the mower won't work! There's nothing to it, but I've had more problems than I can even recall. Customer service is helpful when you finally get through, as long as you call during typical business hours, which isn't usually when I have time to mow the yard. From what I've learned (and I've learned way too much about this company), they are fairly new to the manufacturing business and the quality control has been lacking, to say the least. They've had 2 recalls on this machine in the last year, and have had to replace the circuit board on my machine 3 times. I took it into the local service center 1 month after buying it, and they said it had dirt in the switch, and charged me to clean it out - that dust in the switch should be a problem under normal usage is a sign right there... that I had to pay for that is another problem. After the mower sat for the short winter in Phoenix, it wouldn't start at all, again. After talking to the service center, and then receiving a new circuit board from them, I still had to take it to the service center because the switch was bad. The service center took 7 weeks to fix the mower (7 weeks!) I haven't used it in a month due to travelling (luckily the grass grows slowly), and now it won't start again! My mower lives in the garage, in a protected space, is kept clean and well-maintained. It doesn't have any excuses. I'm sorry to say that in the 16 months I've owned this mower, I've used borrowed mowers more than half the time because of problems.



And by the way, if you have one, DON'T let them talk you into purchasing the trimmer/edger attachment. What a complete peice of junk! I plugged it in once, and not only is it awkward to maneuver, it doesn't really work. The marketing is great, the product is horrible! There are now other, better battery-powered mowers on the market!






Comparison with B & D CMM1200
Two years use of both cordless big machines (Neuton 6.2, Black & Decker CMM1200) by neighbors suggests the following evaluation.



Neuton feels lighter.



Neuton's double-bar trigger is much easier and versatile in use than right-side-only one on B&D--the B&D's single trigger is also the only part that has broken (too easy to twist off)--while the Neuton's is too sensitive to inadvertent shut-off.



The B&D's mulching is superior (fancier blade), rarely leaves Neuton's uncut piles. The B&D spits out less debris. Keep the blades sharp: less bogging down, better mulching!



Neuton cuts closer to trees and fences on front and sides than B&D, due to narrower deck sides, but as both are plastic, I doubt there is any difference in (lack of) safety.



Neuton can switch between two batteries. Recharge and exchange is sooo much easier than B&D, and doesn't require disassembling the mower.



Batteries run for about an hour each and 10 hours to charge (which means the B&D is good only once a day, if you have more than a quarter-acre to mow).



Easy to remove cutter blade with Neuton's included tools, without grabbing the sharp blade, unlike the B&D and its numerous parts. Neuton's tools (stored on the machine) also useful for scraping the gunk from underneath.



The B&D has two safety interlocks before blade starts rotating, Neuton has three to fiddle.



Neuton's control cable is mostly inside the handle, the B&D's exposed on outside where it can catch on things.


Great cordless mower compared to B & D
I used to have a Black and Decker corded electric mower, and recently decided to go cordless. After purchasing the B&D cordless model, I returned it because of the quality of the mowing, which I found substandard. It was not powerful enough to throw grass back into the bag, and so it became clogged almost imediately and left untidy piles of grass all over my yard, which needed to be raked. Even under the mulching setting it left ugly rows of dead grass in the wheel tracks. No good.



I bought a Neuton instead and have used it several times. I am very happy with the power and mowing performance of this mower. My yard is within the size specifications for the Neuton's battery, and so I am satisfied by it's ability to get the job done. There are many features that the Neuton has which make it worth the extra money over B&D. First, the removable battery is really a handy feature. If your yard is very large, just buy a spare. The replacement batteries for the Neuton are some of the most affordable replacement batteries on these types of mowers. Everything about the mower seems pretty ergonomic. My only complaints are that the height adjustments are not very fine-tuned. The difference in height between settings 2 and 3 is enough to "burn" my lawn, but 3 seems a bit long sometimes. However, I will say that the lowest setting is very short, which I think a lot of electric mowers would have trouble doing without bogging down, but the Neuton is so powerful it will take your grass as short as you want. Also, I find it just a little tricky to unhook the clippings bag from the mower. Just a little awkward is all.



As a lawn perfectionist, I am very happy with how my grass looks after using the Neuton. Highly recommended for anyone trying to decide which cordless mower to get. Also, if you go to the Neuton website directly, I believe they have reconditioned units available, which could save you a few bucks.
