Buy Oil. How to register online?

Easy to setup. But No Oil in box to fill to proper level, that is frustrating. Suppose to be ready to use. There was a warning on machine about buying your own oil. It makes the product/company seem Cheap poor attention to detail. Hard to find website to register machine. A-i Power site does not show mower on the list

Hi Barry, thank you for your feedback and for choosing A-iPower. We’re glad to hear the mower was easy to set up, but we apologize for the inconvenience regarding the engine oil. The mower ships without oil and requires oil to be added before first use. If you contact our customer support team at 855-888-3598, we would be happy to help arrange oil for you. We also appreciate your note about the registration page and will continue working to improve the experience on our website. ~A-iPower Customer Support Team

Not a great experience. I would not recommend.

I wanted to like it but ultimately returned it after 2 attempts at using it. Came out of the box easy enough and was ready to go in minutes. I didnt care for the plastic wheels and the locking handles for the push bar seemed pretty flimsy. I was afraid they were goinng to break off. The fuel tank is not very big and would require more frequent refuelings. My first attempt, I got about half my front yard mowed only to have it stop self propelling. Turns out the belt had slipped off. Found someone to help me with it and managed to finish the lawn. 2nd time, about 2/3 of the yard and belt came off again. I just dont have time, energy nor patience for an hour or so repair each time I use it. Also, it was a bit fast. I have a steep front yard and going uphill was a comfortable pace. Downhill or on level ground and it moved quick! Probably too quick for elderly or younger teens. I called AI Power customer service as that is what it had said do in the manual. After some hold, they answered, I explained my problem and my dissatisfaction, wanting to return my purchase. Was advised they dont handle anything like that and to contact the retailer. Fortunately and thankfully, Sam's took the return and refunded my money without hesitation. Very much appreciate Sam's but I just can't recommend this mower.

Worked great...for about 15 minutes

Worked great...for about 15 minutes. Then, well, the motor ran great, the cutting blade cut, and the self-propelled feature stopped propelling itself. Finished by pushing this heavy thing around my steep yard. Read manual again, says you can adjust the self propelled wire, so I did, to the maximum amount it allowed, and it still was human-powered all the way. Called Customer "Service", who did the same thing three times: put me on hold, told me how important the call was to them...and then disconnected. This company (A-iPower) is a disgrace. Sam's-take note. Even sharply discounted, these mowers are questionable at best and this kind of shoddy merchandise is *not* why I pay to shop here.

Hi Ross, We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating that must have been, especially after only a short period of use. We also apologize for the difficulty you experienced trying to reach Customer Support. That is not the experience we want our customers to have. While the manual does reference a drive cable adjustment procedure, the self-propelled speed itself is not adjustable. Based on what you described, it sounds like the unit may require additional troubleshooting or service. Please reach back out to us at support@aipower.com with your contact information, proof of purchase, and serial number so we can properly review the issue and work toward a resolution. ~A-iPower Customer Support Team

I'm really happy with this mower. The 21-inch deck cuts a wide path, and the self-propulsion keeps me moving without extra effort. No clogs, no uneven patches, just a quick, clean job. Worth every penny for anyone who hates fighting with their mower.

Great power and easy to start and operate

Bought this mower to replace my old one, the difference is literally night and day. The AiPower mower has enough power for all tall grass and weeds, and the self-propelled feature actually walks at a normal, comfortable pace. It is heavy duty and solid. It's been starting on the first try every time so far. Honestly, totally worth the money.

Not as expected

Was excited when I purchased this mower. Once I unboxed it and found low on oil and no oil to top it off I was concerned. I read through books and found proper oil to use and topped off. Filled with gas and started mower with 1 pull. When cutting grass I found the self propell almost useless due to plastic wheels that get no traction. At my age and health I need the self propelled to work properly. Debating on returning mower because of this.

Self-propelled Push Lawn Mower

All was in order from getting the mower out of the box to first time mowing the lawns. However. during the 3rd time using the mower, the side discharge chute broke. I guess the materials used to make the shut is too soft. Now a new chute is needed. The mower is a month old, so how do I get a new chute?

I bought this mower on sale and used it for the first time last night. it was easy to unbox and unfold the push bar and adjust to desired hight. it came with a bottle of oil so after adding that and gas, it was ready to run. It started easily. I adjusted wheel height a couple of times to get the setting right. then i began cutting. The self propelled speed is a little fast, but I am 64 years old and I got used to the speed after 5 or 10 minutes and I was able to keep up with it just fine. I originally bought it for my rental property, but after using it, I have decided to donate my older craftsman self propelled mower to the renters instead of this new one. I am keeping this for use in my own yard instead.

Nice mower for the price

This mower is legit! It arrived in a weeks time as listed! The assembly was basic…attach the bars, add the oil, and gas it up. A few pumps to the primer and it started on the 2nd pull. All 4 wheels can be adjusted by 1 lever for cut height. The wheels are suspended by a spring set up, so hitting divots in your yard are unfelt! So far I've been happy! It can mulch, bag, and side discharge! Great alternative to the box stores.

Runs greatly and powerfully.

This Lawn mower has been assembled easily. It runs greatly to help me trimming the grass and clean weeds in backyard. Self-propelled drive let me to do it easily and more efficiently. And the Debris Collection bag is more help for clean. It's powerful.
