Murray 44cm Dual 18v Battery Cordless Mower With 50L Grass Collection BoxI managed around 60 square metres on mowing level 4, in 7 minutes 10 seconds. I have varying levels of mowing difficulty on the lawns. Afterwards there was 95 and 96% charge remaining in the batteries.1.5 week interval. Batteries untouched. Second mow on level 3, in 6 minutes 43 seconds. 75 and 76% charge remaining.2 week interval. Batteries untouched. Third mow on level 3. 56 and 57% charge remaining.I actually achieved 5 mows of 60 square metres, out of one battery charge over a 10 week period. Leaving 8 and 9% charge remaining after mow number 5.I’m impressed.Why the Murray?*Cutting width 44cm = less runs up and down.*Weight 14kg = pressure off my knees and back.*Run time 36 minutes = enough for all my lawns, multiple mows on one battery charge.*No power cables and petrol required.*Guarantee 5 years and 3 years battery = peace of mind.What Came Out Of The Box?First Out Of The Box = ManualsLarge due to translations into many languages. The English instructions are short and simple enough to follow. There is also a quick start tag on the mower showing operating advice.Next Out = Batteries and Dual ChargerSimple to slot into the charger and view the charging light indicators. Flashes green whilst charging. Solid green when charged.The charging unit has a useful additional USB charger for an additional device. Each battery also has a USB output and can act as a power bank. All 3 items have 5.0V 1.0A USB output.Each Briggs and Stratton battery has a digital display indicating percentage charge remaining. The 18v 5Ah batteries arrived with 96 and 97% charge respectively. Topped up to 100% in no time.Last Out = Mower14kg with a central handle to lift the mower. Additional grass box, handles and screw fittings.Assembling The MowerShort instructions because there are only a handful of things to do.1.Put the 2-part handle together and screw in the quick release levers, pull the levers to lock.2.Place the cables in snap on cable holders.3.Clip the grass collector to its metal outer and insert.Done.Grass Collection Box50 litres. Ample for my 60 square metres or so.Weight15kg in the box. Feels light as a feather at the handle when assembled. Compared to my outgoing, trusty, petrol, 46cm, rear roller beast of 15 years this is like cutting the grass with a yard brush! It is light and manoeuvrable. What a breeze.Visual AppealWhat a cracker. Love the silver, black and green. See my pictures assembled in the kitchen. I actually stood with my arms folded in satisfaction and admired the mower for quite a while.First Cut Of 60 Square MetresLawn ConditionsMy grass was long in summer. (Due to weeks of rain!) I waited for a dry day.I waited a while. I chose to cut on a dry morning after overnight rain. I had a few hours window before the next showers. My grass was ranging from 4 to 6 inches in height by this time and the base was wet. It was like the first cut of spring and a good benchmark. I chose mowing level 4.My lawns are split. A simple square cut, and tricky runs around lighting posts and swings. After the sad passing of my petrol mower. I borrowed a 36cm cabled mower. Cut, edging and tidy up took an hour or so on the cable.Mower PerformanceThe Murray decimated that one hour time. I finished both lawn cuts, the simple square lawn and the tricky one in only 7 minutes 10 seconds with 96 and 95% charge left in the batteries. I made only two trips to the wheelie bin with cuttings in the ample 50L grass box. The edging and clean up took the usual time. But the mowing was a doddle.Freedom To MowThe mower was straight out of the shed and into action. No petrol required. No electric cables to set up (and avoid!). Light and easy – the blade felt powerful in action. I moved at a good pace and the grass was cut well, even in the wet(ish) conditions.Run Time & Battery ChargingObviously I am going to get a number of mows out of 1 charging cycle. At the time of writing I do not know the charging duration of depleted batteries. The manual states the mower can accomplish 640 square metres of mowing in 36 minutes. I believe it. I managed around 60 square metres in 7 minutes 10 seconds with varying levels of mowing difficulty. There was 95 and 96% charge remaining in the batteries. The question is: will I get 5 more mows out of the batteries? …watch this space!UPDATEMOW No.1: 96 and 95% charge remaining, level 4, 2 grass buckets1.5 week intervalMOW No.2: 75 and 76% charge remaining, level 3, 2 grass buckets2 week intervalMOW No.3: 56 and 57% charge remaining, level 3, 1 grass bucketOverallVery pleased with my purchase.I have limited time. This mower offers me opportunist mowing at the drop of a hat in 7 minutes. It is an attractive mower. Light, manoeuvrable, powerful with good grass collection capacity. The 44cm cutting width means less runs up and down. Long battery life. Good run time and guarantee. I am happily leaving petrol and cables behind.
Starry night –
We have quite a large garden – half an acre – with most of it laid to lawn. This battery-powered mower doesn’t do a bad job of tackling it. I probably wouldn’t have bought this, if i) I hadn’t seen it on offer just after my brother had sent me money for my birthday, and ii) I didn’t already own a Sprint leaf vacuum that uses the same twin battery system – which means that I have a backup set of batteries. Our garden is divided into several lawned areas, and using two fully charged sets of batteries I can get around roughly half the garden. The battery charger is quite quick, and by the time I have exhausted my spare set of batteries, the first set are nearly recharged and ready to go again. The mower is really easy to use, so light and manoeuvrable that even though I’m waiting for a major operation I can manage to get this all round our garden, including tiered areas where I have to lift. The mower starts easily using a simple press button system. There’s no cable, no starter cord to pull, and no fumes. In use, it’s really quiet, and gives a really nice, neat, short cut to our lawns. I’m generally very impressed.I have one small negative comment in relation to this, and have found one associated issue. The negative comment is in relation to the grass catcher: the pegs for attaching this to the mower go in to slots on the machine that are quite small, get clogged with bits of grass and hard to see – it’s easy to miss and not get the catcher properly aligned. This is a niggle rather than a problem, and once you know that the catcher needs a bit more attention you give it. The issue I have found is that this doesn’t seem to like being used just after the lawn has been scarified. We have lots of problems with moss, weeds/grasses from the adjacent fields, and an underlying soil that is heavy clay and (until recently) had a scarifier that doesn’t include a catcher. At other times, this mower works perfectly but trying to go over a lawn that has been scarified shortly before, to pick up after the scarifier, and the automatic cut out on the mower kicks in and shuts it down, something that hadn’t been an issue with our old petrol mower.

I’ve had a petrol mower for 30 years because my garden is a fair size and has rambling bumpy lawns. Felt the time was right to go green, but didn’t want to compromise on power.Well, the handbook and assembly instructions are appalling! I try to follow instructions when assembling new stuff, but this was just baffling, so some initiative was needed. Having said that, it’s only the handles and bits like the safety plug. The diagrams are so small as to be useless. I’d be happy to rewrite the instructions if Murray ask!Anyway, the mower itself is terrific. It’s light, powerful and very effective. I did my lawns in a fraction of the time it took with the faithful old petrol job. I don’t use the grass box because it adds weight and needs emptying too often, even though it’s generously sized. I did two of three lawns and the batteries still showed full, so no worries about capacity. Can’t do third lawn due to building works.So: great cut, no petrol mower noise, light, easy, bags of power – Perfect!After months of use I love it even more! It’s fast, powerful and very well designed. I use the bag if I need a tidy lawn, and providing the grass isn’t too long it holds plenty. Great mower.

I have used a petrol mower for the past 17 years, and the machine was showing its age, and the last two years needed work to keep it running. I decided to look for a decent sized mower for my needs, and after hours of reviews, YouTube and others, I decided on the Murray 44cm.I have To say that I am highly delighted, it arrived and whilst the instruction books weigh more than the mower, assembly was a doddle. Two 5AH batteries were soon charged and the quality of the cut was excellent, and so light and easy to manoeuvre, makes me wonder why I persisted with the petrol mower for so long.So far reliability is excellent, and the build quality appears very good. With a 5 year mower warranty and 3 years on battery and charger, it’s a no brainer. I have completely flattened the batteries and both were fully charged in just over 1 hour, and gives me at least 40 minutes cutting time.The only negative comment I can make, is the bottom of the grass collection box comes adrift from its securing bar, which allows cut grass to pass the box and exits at the rear of the mower. Not a major issue, just go over it and pick up the loose grass.Overall, I don’t think you can buy much better.18/8/21I have now used this mower for almost two seasons, and I am still very pleased and impressed. Totally reliable, excellent cut, light and easy to manoeuvre and have just fitted a new blade, and having the old one sharpened and balanced. So pleased am I with the brand, I bought the strimmer and the hedge trimmer during the winter months when they were cheaper and on offer. Both excellent lightweight and all use the same batteries.I do wonder if some of the negative comments are as a result of operator error, rather than the product, I give Murray 5*.
Brilliant service –
I’ve been struggling to use my electric lawnmower for a while, so gave up on it and bought this Murray battery operated one as recommended by my daughter-in-law who is a gardener and uses the bigger model. I’m over the moon with it. It’s light to use and gives a good cut.

John BishopJohn Bishop –
This is a brilliant machine and I wish I had bought it years ago. I’ve struggled with a wired electric mower on our relatively small lawn (100 square metres or so) for years so switching to a battery-powered mower was a revelation. It took me less than ten minutes to mow our lawn – half the time it used to take – and the batteries were still indicating a full charge afterwards. I am seriously impressed!However, (sorry about this Murray, you must hate the ‘howevers’) I did struggle more than I should have done with the assembly, and note from the questions above and other reviews that I’m not alone in this respect. Being nearly 70 years old and doubtless with slightly less than perfect eyesight, the diagrams in the manual were too small to be useful and the associated figure text was so small as to be virtually illegible. Figures 2, 3 and 4 were basically useless for me although I guess those with younger eyes probably struggled less!The text refers several times to the Safety Key but never once mentions where it is located. I only realized after I had completed the build that Figure 6 shows it; since I struggled with the diagrams I was relying on the text. It really wouldn’t hurt to write its location in the manual (it is inside the battery compartment). This caused a delay of 10 minutes as I hunted through all the boxes several times believing I had somehow missed it in the unpacking and I was on the point of giving up when I finally located it.Also unclear in the manual is that the upper and lower handle cam locks are different, and again Figures 2 and 3 are so miniscule as to be useless to me. The lower cam locks have no nut attached and are the longest of the two pairs. These simply screw into the holes provided which are suitably threaded for the purpose. The upper cam locks come with the nuts attached and these have to be removed, as do the washers. The bolts are then threaded through from the inside of the handle to the outside where the washer and the nut are attached. Figuring all this out caused a further 10 minute delay. Maybe for some folks this was all obvious, but it wasn’t to me.I could not find any mention of the two cable clips, so wasn’t really sure quite where to locate these on the handle. They were not even shown in the ‘Features and Supplied Items’ list. So I just put these where they seemed to be the most effective but have no idea if that was what the manufacturer intended.If I were to assemble another one now it would take no more than 10 minutes, as it was it took about half an hour with a not inconsiderable amount of frustration. It was a good job that once assembled and used, the mower was so brilliant that it made it worth the bother.My advice to Murray – do more engineering like this, but improve your manual! Great product.
