Product Description

Makita is expanding the line of cordless OPE to include the 18V X2 LXT® Lithium-Ion (36V) 18” Lawn Mower. With zero emissions, lower noise and reduced maintenance, the 18V X2 (36V) Cordless Lawn Mower is a welcome solution for efficient grass cutting. It’s powered by two 18V LXT batteries for maximum power and run time, but without leaving the 18V battery platform. The Makita-built motor delivers up to 3,300 RPM. The mower offers ease-of-use features including quick height adjustments, a 16-gallon capacity grass collector, and folding handles for compact storage. Model XML03CM1 is a kit and includes the Lawn Mower, four fast-charging 18V LXT 4.0Ah Batteries and an efficient 18V LXT Dual Port Charger. The Lawn Mower features Makita Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™). XPT™ is a protective seal inside the tool and is engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita® 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita® 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.

Customers are mixed about the battery life of the lawn mower. Some mention that it has plenty of power and battery life to take care of their yard front and back, while others say that it barely lasts that long. The dual 18v (36v total) 4Ah batteries are awesome, and you'll get good run time from the batteries. However, some customers say that the batteries are inefficient and the small battery capacity only allows 15-20 minutes of use and full charging.

74 customers mention47 positive27 negative

Customers are mixed about the sturdiness of the lawn mower. Some mention it's a very solid and well built product, while others say that it'll struggle if they're running over very overgrown. They also say it suffers if poor craftsmanship and needs lots of strength to pull back the handle.

"...It seems well thought out, engineered and durable. It’s quiet on the high setting. There’s no cord or gas. It comes with (4) 4Ah batteries...." Read more

"...Then, we got the new mower…and it was also damaged. This time we had all the pieces though, so we just bent the piece straight...." Read more

"...It is light and stores easy. It is also well built...." Read more

"...All together, it’s a quality, well made machine that I can feel good about using in my yard. Nowhere near so loud, either!" Read more

58 customers mention35 positive23 negative

Customers are mixed about the weight of the lawn mower. Some mention it's very light and easy to push, while others say it'd be heavier than expected. The frame is made of metal and steel, which adds enough weight to the mower to keep it stable. However, some customers feel the mower is a bit heavy to push and that the frame could lose some weight.

"...There is even a low noise option. It is light and stores easy. It is also well built...." Read more

"It’s a little heavy for me, but I’m old. It does a great job of mowing, and was very easy to figure out how to use the batteries...." Read more

"...Now unto the actual mower review. I think it’s pretty lightweight and maneuverable, and cuts grass like a champ...." Read more

"...Very maneuverable, no difficulty. Light enough that an out of shape middle aged man can pick it up and move it up and down half a flight of stairs..." Read more

Great mower!
5 Stars
Great mower!
Pros -Unit arrived on time. Box was dinged up but no damage. Weighs 80 lbs and it’s a tank. I read a lot of bad reviews on top rated / top selling units that were lighter weight plastic that arrived broken or parts broke during use. Don’t see that happening here.I’ve owned Makita tools for decades and it is my preferred cordless brand. When all the big cordless manufacturers started producing all these different tools aside from construction, reviews were mixed, so I held off. 2 years later I have a great mower, weed wacker and leaf blower. Will likely get the hedge trimmer as well.The dual 18v (36v total) 4Ah batteries are awesome. I mow about 1,800 sqft of lawn every 5 days and I’ve had the mower for 2 months. I use the highest setting rather than econo. I am just recharging the batteries for the first time in the rapid charger. Makita batteries are great and charge optimally with a couple of years of daily heavy use.My grass is Kentucky bluegrass / fescue mix. I have it set on the maximum 3” height and it’s perfect. Seems more like 4”. My lawn was 8” high when I used it for the first time. Made 2 quick passes ✔️ I have no issues with backing up the mower to change directions. The rear flap does not hang up and I have the grass catcher bag attached. If the rear flap should accidentally flip under the unit, there shouldn’t be any damage. It’s designed to stop at a level point, well away from the blade, and it’s rugged enough.Makita recommends lapping your previous cut by 50%. I’ve found just passing over the previous wheel track adequate. While this is a narrower 18” cut, it is not a deterrent to me. I get my lawn cut quickly.Cons:The folding handle and control projects extremely far to the rear. Would prefer it a foot shorter. Most likely this is a safety feature so you don’t run your foot over? Many of the reviews on other units have an anti reverse lock on the wheel to prevent you from backing up at all.While the factory blade is a “dull” sharpness, I will be honing it to a keener edge with a diamond file.If you are expecting it to pick up the leaves on your yard, it won’t. It has just enough suction to bag the grass. This is likely a noise and battery life issue.*** I would definitely recommend this mower to anyone. I don’t see a need for a power drive unless you have hilly terrain and / or fatigue easily. It seems well thought out, engineered and durable. It’s quiet on the high setting. There’s no cord or gas. It comes with (4) 4Ah batteries. So, if you have a large property and you run out of juice, swap your batteries out and your batteries will be adequately charged before you need to swap them again. (You can always buy 5Ah or 6Ah batteries if you need more run time).

5.0 out of 5 stars A great value
Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2022
To all you battery powered lawn tool haters: you don’t know what your missing.

I never thought I would buy something like this but I needed a new mower and I already own and loved Makita power tools. For the cost of 4 of these large 4.0ah batteries I got an additional mower and a double charger. I wanted to buy more batteries anyway so I found this to be a great value. The lawn mower does an amazing job I can do my entire lawn on one charge and I always do two passes. The mulch option works great as well as the bag. The mower is quiet so I can mow later without worry of the neighbors being bothered. There is even a low noise option. It is light and stores easy. It is also well built. The only issues that I have, and I hope that makita corrects, are that the handle is uncomfortable - something I read in reviews but thought that people were just being weak. I can say it is uncomfortable for me if I am pushing it for long periods, but it doesn’t bother me as much as when I first got it. My other dislike is the limited deck height option. I would like at least another 1” or two of deck height for those times when my lawn misses a mow or two and has to be tamed back. The single handle deck adjustment is amazing though. I works great and makes changing the height so easy. Way better than those old single wheel tab adjustments. The last issue I had was the 18” deck diameter. I wish this mower was a 21”. Makita does make a 21” but it is a self propelled unit for more money and I would like the 21” deck with out all the other stuff the current 21” model has. Overall this is an amazing mower. It made me a believer in battery powered yard and lawn tools. It is better than I ever expected.
