Consumer Reports compares the Cub Cadet 11A-18MC with 44 other lawn mowers, ranking all based on objective tests. The single-product review at Consumer Guide, part of HowStuffWorks.com, is based on less-formal tests, but provides more details. Consumers Digest magazine also recommends this mower, and we found very useful owner-written reviews at HomeDepot.com and Epinions.com.
The Cub Cadet 11A-18MC is a basic gas push mower. It's powered by a fuel-efficient Chinese-made four-cycle OHV engine, but it doesn't meet CARB (California Air Resource Board) requirements. Most reviews say this mower performs well, is easy to use and priced attractively. It has single-lever height adjustment, a feature owners say they appreciate. For a small lawn, reviews say that the electric Black & Decker MM875 (*est. $230) is similarly priced, quieter and even less polluting, but you will be limited by a maximum power cord length of 100 feet.
