This machine is excellent for use around areas with narrow places to go. Great for uses in towns or cities that have small yards and not enough patience to walk behind a mower. The steering is very responsive and it has a rectangular steering wheel, which takes some getting use to also. The mower can be stood up vertical so that the deck can be cleaned easily and can also be stored that way to save space. The battery must be removed if standing for over 2 hours and I'd recommend that the oil be drained too if standing for long periods of time. I've seen cases where the dipstick tube seal has leaked and the oil ran out on the floor, so removing it may save the hassle of cleaning up the mess later.
Maybe not the mower you'd want to use if you had a large amount of mowing to do and not much time, but certainly one to use if you have tight spots.
