How long does it run on one charge?

Litheli rates it at about 20 to 30 minutes on the 5.0Ah battery. Tall, wet or thick grass shortens that.

Does it mulch or side-discharge?

The mower is built around bagging, with a 13-gallon collection bag and an upgraded airflow system. Mulching and side discharge are not part of the listed setup.

How often do I have to empty the bag?

The bag holds 13 gallons, which is large for a 17-inch mower. You empty it less often than a small bag, but more often than on a wider deck.

What cutting heights does it offer?

Six settings from about 0.98 to 2.95 inches. Adjust the height with the lever before you start mowing.

Is it hard to push up a hill?

No. It is self-propelled at 1.3 to 2.9 mph, so the drive does the work on slopes.

What does the warranty cover?

Three years on the mower and one year on the battery.

Our take on the Litheli 40V Cordless Electric Lawn Mower, 17-Inch, Self-Propelled

The Litheli 40V is a cordless, self-propelled walk-behind mower with a 17-inch deck, a brushless motor and a 5.0Ah battery. It drives itself at 1.3 to 2.9 mph, cuts at six heights from about 1 to 3 inches, and bags clippings in a 13-gallon bag. The 17-inch deck is smaller than the 20- to 21-inch decks common on rival cordless mowers, so it takes more passes on a large lawn, and the rated 20 to 30 minutes per charge is short. Its 3.3-out-of-5 rating from 166 buyers points to a mixed reception.

About the Litheli 40V Cordless Electric Lawn Mower, 17-Inch, Self-Propelled

This is a 40V cordless electric lawn mower with a 17-inch cutting width. It has a brushless motor, which runs with less heat and more quietly and uses energy efficiently. The blades are made using laser-cutting technology.

The mower is self-propelled, with speeds of 1.3 to 2.9 mph. It has 6 cutting height settings, from 0.98 to 2.95 inches. A 13-gallon collection bag catches clippings, and an upgraded airflow system increases grass-gathering efficiency by up to 50%.

It runs on a 5.0Ah battery pack, which gives about 20 to 30 minutes of runtime on a full charge. Actual runtime varies with lawn condition and operating technique. The battery pack sits in the mower's charging compartment and charges through a USB port with any 45W PD (Power Delivery) charger. Fully charge the battery before first use.
