The Mowrator 4WD is fantastic - for its maiden voyage it effectively slashed grass and weeds 70-100cm high (on a steep slope), then two days later I went through again at a lower height and the cut was beautiful. I can mow easily and safely from a distance, avoiding snakes and I'm able to get a LOT more done in a fraction of the time. It's easy to use, easy to maneuver and easy to charge, and having an extra battery means I can have one charging while I use the other. In the few weeks I've had the Mowrator, I've slashed close to 5 acres, all of which was grossly overgrown and on a 30-40 degree slope - and gone back to clean up the cut a few days later, and the machine doesn't miss a beat. I also purchased the fat wheels for more tread and better handling on slopes, and put them on at the get go, which is probably why i am so beyond impressed with my Mowrator. It is an expensive purchase, sure, it's well worth the money - the amount of time and energy I am getting to keep to use doing something else is priceless. The Mowrator 4WD has changed my life!
