Is this mower good for a 1/8-acre lawn?

Yes. Black+Decker rates it for lawns up to about 1/8 acre, and the 15-inch deck and 40.4 lb weight suit yards that size. Larger lawns mean many more passes.

Does it mulch or bag only?

It bags only. Clippings go into the included collection bag; there is no mulching plug or side discharge.

How long an extension cord do I need?

Use a heavy-gauge outdoor extension cord long enough to reach your whole lawn from the outlet. The mower itself has no battery, so its range is the cord's range.

What cutting heights does it offer?

Six positions from 1 inch to 3 inches, adjusted at the deck. That covers a short trim up to a longer residential cut.

The BEMW472BH mower and a collection bag. You supply the outdoor extension cord.

How does it compare with a cordless mower?

A cordless mower frees you from the cord and cuts anywhere, but it costs more, adds battery weight and runs only as long as its charge. This one runs as long as the outlet does and stays light at 40.4 lb.

Our take on the Black+Decker Electric Push Mower

The Black+Decker BEMW472BH is a corded 10-amp push mower with a 15-inch deck, built for small residential lawns up to about 1/8 acre. It starts with a push button, has six cutting heights from 1 to 3 inches, and bags clippings into an included collection bag; it does not mulch. At 40.4 lb it is light enough to push easily, but the cord limits where you can go. Against cordless and gas rivals it is simpler and lighter, with no battery to charge or oil to change, but it gives up reach and mulching.
