Makita DLM432Z Twin Li-ion LXT Cordless Lawn Mower, Batteries and Charger Not Included, Blue, 43 cm, 18V (36V)

Product Information

The grass collector on this Makita is semi rigid construction, meaning it has a hard plastic top and bottom but a cloth central surround. The advantage of this type of collector is when it comes to storage as the grass collector will fold flat nicely. The disadvantage of this design is the cloth surround can get damaged and torn more easily than a completely solid construction. Having said that the cloth webbing material used is what you would expect from Makita, good quality that should last well if looked after.

Mulching This model, like most cordless lawnmowers in this category, does not have a specific mulching feature. That is not to say you cannot add grass clippings to other organic material to create great compost. If you cut regularly, you could get away with leaving the grass collector off and let the clippings remain on the cut grass. Only do this if it is a minor trim. Makita has found a good balance between speed, power and ease of use. This is a great choice for medium and large size lawns. As with many cordless models and lawnmowers designed for small to medium gardens, this lawnmower does not have a rear roller for stripes. While a great feature in certain circumstances, it does require regular mowing and acute operation. It is not ideal for all gardens.
