Simply unacceptable lawn mower. I bought it because of the brand, but it is perhaps the worst purchase I have made. If the lawn is slightly wet (which it will be because I water it), then the machine struggles excessively and makes a strange noise as if the motor is out of sync with the chassis and does not increase the speed. Also, I was quite unlucky and hit a rock. Just one rock and the plastic that directs the cut grass into the bag broke immediately, causing it to clog every minute and leave all the cut grass in its path. Disappointing.

UPDATE 05/04/2024: The blade broke and I searched for a replacement but couldn't find it anywhere. I couldn't even find the product code. Eventually, I found the code and the blade on a foreign website, contacted Makita Greece, and they referred me to their representatives. I went to 3 of them and none of them had the blade, but the worst part was that none of them even bothered to order it. So I bought it from abroad and there was only one store worldwide that had it, but they had a huge shipping charge. Complete disappointment.
