Less strain. More independence.
Thank you for sharing what’s possible.
“What impressed me most about the mower was not just its power or technology, but the freedom it gave me.”
There was a time not long ago when I sat in my wheelchair, looking out across my property, feeling trapped in more ways than one. After becoming paralyzed, so many ordinary things suddenly became impossible. One of the worst reminders was my yard.
I own three lots here in Oklahoma, and the grass had gotten completely out of control. Some places were nearly four feet tall. It looked abandoned. Every day I stared at it, growing higher and higher, while I sat there, unable to do anything about it myself.
I tried hiring people. I offered money. Good money. I explained my condition. Some people said they would come and never showed up. Others saw the amount of work and simply disappeared. A few acted interested until they realized how overgrown it really was. Week after week passed, and the feeling of losing control over my own property began to eat at me.
Most people who have never become disabled do not understand what that does to a man mentally. It is not just grass. It is independence. It is dignity. It is the feeling that your own land is slowly defeating you while you sit there watching.
Then came the Mowrator remote-control mower.
At first, I honestly did not know what to expect. I had questions. I had technical problems. I had to learn the controls, the safety features, the remote system, and all the little quirks that come with modern technology. There were moments when I felt frustrated trying to get everything paired and operating correctly. But once it started working, something changed emotionally inside me.
For the first time since becoming paralyzed, I was not just watching someone else work on my property.
I was mowing my own land.
Sitting in my wheelchair, operating that machine across my lots, was one of the most satisfying feelings I have had since my injury. Watching those huge paths cut through waist-high grass felt like reclaiming territory that paralysis had stolen from me.
The mower itself is genuinely impressive. It is powerful, stable, and surprisingly capable in rough terrain. The remote-control operation allows me to stay safely positioned while still having precise control over where I want the mower to go. The safety systems, drive controls, and slope capability are not gimmicks. They matter when you are physically vulnerable and cannot simply jump out of the way or wrestle a machine by hand.
The battery performance honestly surprised me, too. I got about 3½ hours of mowing time per charge, and it recharged quickly. That is enough time for me to make serious progress before needing to plug it back in. It went through the tall grass and weeds over at my rental property next door like it was nothing.
Now, I will say this honestly, the four-wheel drive is no joke. If you get careless in soft ground, that thing can bury itself in seconds. And yes, I managed to get it stuck several times already. But that is partly because I was pushing it hard in places most normal mowers would never even attempt.
Thankfully, I learned quickly to carry a rope with me. I can slip it through the mower frame and use my track chair to pull it back out. Honestly, even that part made me laugh because it felt like operating recovery equipment more than lawn equipment.
What amazed me most was the psychological effect.
People think mobility is only about getting from one room to another. That is not true. Real mobility is being able to participate in life again. It is being able to work, maintain property, solve problems, and feel useful instead of dependent.
When those blades started chewing through four-foot-tall grass, it did more than clean up my property.
It gave me back a piece of myself.
As a Vietnam-era veteran now living with paralysis, moments like that matter more than most people realize. There is something deeply healing about still being able to fight back against life’s chaos, even from a wheelchair. The mower became more than equipment. It became a tool of independence.
And honestly, there is just something plain enjoyable about sitting there with the remote in your hand, watching that machine absolutely devour overgrown Oklahoma grass while your dog runs nearby and you realize:
“I can still do this.”
Not the same way as before.
But I can still do it.
“Tractors or ride ons were a no go due to the slope so it was hours of back breaking work to keep it under control and fire safe. … For us this is our problem solved.”
Does what it says on the box.
We purchased the Mowrator 4WD to tackle a problem slop section on our farm. Tractors or ride ons were a no go due to the slope so it was hours of back breaking work to keep it under control and fire safe. The mowrator handled the terrain with ease we copped the task up into sections so the battery could recharge but even that was quick and painless. For us this is our problem solved.
“This mower has changed my life completely - I used to spend days mowing - now I have so much time to do other work and mowing is actually fun!”
The best mower for sloping land and large areas
I purchased a 4WD Mowrator in 2024. Instead of expending loads of energy following a self-propelled mower up and down slopes — I would have to go sit inside and recover after each battery died, and it took 2 days to mow my orchard — now I can stay in the shade of trees and watch my Mowrator do all the hard work!
I have the wide tires, and they handle slopes impressively (although I am curious about the new deformable tires).
I bought an additional battery so I can swap one out while the other is charging. With the two batteries, I can mow my entire orchard, which is over 2 acres — and it’s awesome, especially considering how fast the grass grows here in the hotter months.
It takes a little longer when the grass is long, even so. The Mowrator handles grass that’s 60cm high, so I use it on the highest setting if the grass has gotten away from me (usually due to excessive rain). Then I come back a few days later with a lower cut, and it works really well.
I can't say enough good things about it. My only issue is that it does seem to prefer going backwards, so thank goodness I could change the speed settings to make it go just as fast in both directions.
This mower has changed my life completely. I used to spend days mowing — now I have so much time to do other work, and mowing is actually fun!
“I spent nearly a year building my own RC mower. Mowrator impressed me from the first unboxing.”
We recently had the pleasure of visiting one of our supporters, Dennis, in Brisbane, Australia. A big thank you to Dennis for his warm hospitality and valuable feedback!
As an RC enthusiast living on steep terrain, Dennis has been mowing his lawn with a ride-on mower for 25 years. During the pandemic, he built his own RC mower, investing nearly a year due to the lack of suitable options.
His thoughts on Mowrator:
“I live in tropical north Queensland and walking up and down in the humidity for 3 hours was exhausting. … Mowing is now much easier…”
Makes mowing easy and fun
I live in tropical north Queensland and walking up and down in the humidity for 3 hours was exhausting. I was looking at getting a small ride-on, but decided on the Mowrator because my yard has slopes. Getting the 4wd model was definitely the right decision from this perspective. Mowing is now much easier and I also no longer need to use the line trimmer so much on the slopes. I like the flexibility of having options to customise the controller and proximity sensors etc. Everything seems really well built. After about 2 hours of operation the battery is still showing more than 50% charge remaining. It was an expensive leap of faith, but so far I'm very happy.
“My hard mowing days are over, great purchase.”
Mowrator, life saver
I purchased this mower because I have a larger than normal suburban house block which is on a steep slope. I’m very impressed with its performance, doing it easy and a very neat cut. I also have some longer growth under a few olive trees, with the 4 wheel drive it did it with easy. My hard mowing days are over, great purchase.
“I am still getting exercise walking with it but not busting a gut pushing a hand mower.”
Can do the dam embankment, rather than whipper snipping and difficult to get spots that a rideon can not access. Plus narrow enough to get through doors/gates. I am still getting exercise walking with it but not busting a gut pushing a hand mower.
“Wow! There is nothing like sitting inside on a hot day while mowing your yard.”
Wow! There is nothing like sitting inside on a hot day while mowing your yard. I have even hooked it up to my 85" television so I can mow from the comfort of my recliner. The coverage is outstanding!
