LE380

What an excellent mower. Fairly heavy but very manageable. Height adjustment just great. Cuts beautifully.,Grass collection box easily detachable box and does what it says on the tin. Great value mower for the price. Powerful 1600 motor. Cannot complain about this mower. Highly recommended even for the very keen gardener

Great value and with a 5yr guarantee. First time I’ve used a lawnmower for over 12 years but faced with front and rear gardens in my new house I’ve spent a lot of time deciding which lawn mower to get. I swayed between getting a cordless or electric then once I’d decided on corded for the value and power it was then down to which manufacturers to choose from. So after trolling through all the reviews for the established big companies I decided on this Murray mower after all the positive reviews. So now for the main info. The setup was not was easy as it should be though to be fair it’s only fitting two parts of a handle together then attaching the grass box. The main issue was that the screw assemblies were different supplied than shown in the manual. Anyway once this issue was resolved (10 mins to convince it was ok) it was onto the garden. This is where I gained the most confidence in the product. You get a great range of height adjustment which I used both ends of the range for different parts of the front and rear lawns. No problems it just cut through with no fuss and with a great results. The grass box held enough grass to mean little emptying was needed and also simple to empty. After the grass was cut there was little cleaning required and it was placed into the garage (didn’t bother to attempt folding the handle) The whole mower feels like good quality and I like the fact it’s got metal blades as my last mower used plastic ones which were easily damaged. Can speak for long term ownership but if there are any problems hopefully the long warranty will cover it, but so far so good

Smaller than my old Qualcast which lasted 20 years . Compact size , small grass box than I’m used . First time of using it cut great. Just hope it keeps it up. Some say cable is short , I found it was able size still needed an extension cable. Was a bit fiddly to put together. As there was no instructions. Screw missing to hold the cable holder but one was found , Great little mower at present

I purchased this on reading various reviews which seemed positive. Sadly I am disappointed in the quality. Very flimsy lightweight plastic which I can’t see lasting long. The handle has to be put onto the main base which would be fine if the holes lined up properly. The basket is fiddly to put together and again made of very flimsy plastic. I may be dim but it would have also helped if they added you need to buy a particular type of extension lead so you can use it as though saying corded it is a extremely short cord which needs a particular cable. I’m sure there is no mention of this on purchasing. The instruction manual is also poor. It would help if they showed a colour photograph of the product completely assembled.

Needing a new mower, and looking at the most popular brands, but not happy with the similar high price tags most all had, but then I noticed this model, which at first sight looked impressive and seemed to have all the same features as all the others had, but at a cheaper price, and with a 5-year guarantee included as well, so I bought one and very pleased that I did too, it cuts the grass just as it should, it has 7 different cutting heights which are easy to alter with the well-positioned lever on the top side, the grass collection facility is good with a large volume bin for the cuttings which is easy to empty, the side combs seem to work well pulling in the grass from the edges, and I also liked the option to use the mulching attachment included, instead of collecting the cut grass. The mower seems to cope with longer grass good too, but I think it is better to be done in stages, reducing the cutting height each time, which doesn't add any extra effort on the motor, the wheels are a good size with larger ones at the rear, which makes it easier to maneuver than other makes I have owned in recent years, it doesn't have a rear roller so it doesn't leave stripes on the grass, but I can live without that, the very basic instructions on how to assemble the handle could be clearer, although it isn't hard to work out how its done, however, the grass collection box could be a better design, as sometimes it loses some of the clippings from underneath, which are the only 2 faults I can find worth a mention, all things considered, this is a good machine to cut a lawn with, and leaves similar results in appearance, as a more expensive mower would do, and is a good buy for the asking price

My Rotak finally died having provided 5 years of solid service (and follwing a winter outside the shed!!) so I looked for another as it was so good - no joy as Bosch appear to have done away with the 43cm model (and prices appear to have gone skyward..) OK - I've got a Gerdena manual and an E-Go battery mower, so this corded mower is the spring/autumn go-to model so I decided to put up with a slightly smaller and eminently cheaper replacement.. Never heard of Murray but the reviews (Amazon and elsewhere) were positive, so I ordered the 37cm version. What a stroke of good fortune! Easier to manoeuvre than the Rotak, lighter, larger grass capacity and decent lowest cut height! It's well made, powerful and easy to put together and store and it cost 124 quid!!! If it lasts 3-4 years it beats the Bosch when cost is factored in - fingers crossed but I can't see it failing!
