Easy to remove up through the handles and stores flat The DeWalt DCMW564P2 mower benefits from a robust brushless motor, which is designed to be longer-lasting and provide a greater run time.

This was my first electric mower. It doesn’t feel quite as powerful as a petrol mower, but if you're sensible with it—choos ...

I certainly don’t miss pulling the starter cord, messing around with petrol cans, fumes, gunked-up spark plugs and all that other nonsense.

Now that I’ve got an electric Makita mower (DLM464), I can compare the pros and cons of each, which I hope will be useful to others. If you have ever found mowing the lawn to be a chore, this mower will make it a much more enjoyable experience thanks to the wealth of impressive features. It comes with two 5.0Ah batteries that offer a very generous run time of up to 40 minutes and can be power-shared across the DeWalt range. However, if you already have a vast collection of batteries, there is also the option to buy the bare model, the DeWalt DCMW564N. Without getting into the optional extras, the mower gives a standard range of features (height adjustment, mulching, etc.) which will be fine for probably the majority of situations. Probabaly one thing that could be improved is the basket capacity, which seems a little on the small side.I was initially reluctant to buy this mower because I wanted a higher-powered one running at 54V and was hoping DeWalt would soon release one. However when I called DeWalt to ask about it, I was told no such mower was on the cards, and that this mower was actually well-rated by customers. Having used it though, I think a 54V version is indeed needed, though I presume it’d have to run with the larger batteries to achieve reasonable runtime (12 Ah or 15 Ah). Or maybe running two 54V batteries in series to provide 108V would be the way to go? I hope the engineers are working on it. Bought this mower 4 years ago, coming from using a petrol mower, having had reasonable experience with other Dewalt tools and wanting to avoid needing 1000 different chargers and batteries. If you are looking for a powerful cordless mower from a premium brand that produces quality garden tools then look not further; the Dewalt DCMW563P2 will be right up your street. While you will need to make a more substantial investment on this mower compared to some other cordless models, the advantages of doing so are clear. This is a machine built for power and ease of use. Ergonomic push handle design allows easy and comfortable steering and robust, lightweight aluminium handles.

Furthermore, with the range of features, this powerful, portable and reliable mower would make an excellent addition to the gardening arsenal of discerning gardeners. It delivers an accurate and clean cut that you and your clients will be surely impressed with. Conclusion The DeWalt cordless mower boasts a generous cutting width of 48cm which is perfect for medium to large lawns. Anything up to 800m² is perfect for this mower. For this reason, this mower could be used for smaller commercial jobs, just as much as for domestic purposes. Handles The DeWalt DCMW564P2 mower has large rear wheels which add to the manoeuvrability as well as making this a very stable mower. What’s more, the wheels have twin bearings for greater stability and help to prevent scalping the lawn. It’s worth noting that the spring loaded height adjustment system on this mower seemed to add a bounce / suspension to the mower when mowing. This did not seem to cause any issues in terms of the cut quality and manoeuvrability.Performance in terms of the battery life is difficult to be certain about, in that the mower has only been used a few times so far but battery life seems to be slightly longer with each use, so there may be an element of bedding-in involved. Also, I fitted the mower with two 9Ah batteries, rather than the standard 5Ah, but even on the first use there was just enough power to cut approx. 140m2 of lawn. In terms of how this lawn mower performs, I have to say that I was astonished with the results. The mower boasts a 2-in-1 function which gives you the freedom to mow the lawn in your preferred way. There is the option to cut and collect the grass cuttings. The mower comes with a mulching plug, which I will discuss in a bit more detail later on. The grass bag is lightweight and made from mesh fabric meaning that it is also much easier and compact to store. Despite being fabric, this is a heavy duty grass bag that will stand up to a lot of mowing. Performance is good, in that the mower is reasonably quiet (certainly quieter than my old petrol mower) and it seems able to handle slightly damp grass. So far, there is no evidence of "tugging" clumps of grass, which my previous mower would do from time-to-time.
