Concerned about the battery charging. 20inch model cannot be charged for more than 12 hours and in off season must be charged once a month.Same here?

My 17" mower cannot be charged for more than 24 hours at a time. The booklet warned against this. If you charge it every 30 days during dormant yard months, it does not take anywhere near that long. Generally, around 12 or 13 hours.

Mine worked 3 months last year. I went to start it this year in May and the battery is shot. I finally got in touch with WORX and paid $28.00 shipment for a replacement battery and charger. The charger here and I'm still waiting for the replacement battery.I'm paying $30.00 a week to have my lawn cut weekly and have a $350.00 lawn mower that don't work with a new charger. I would find another brand of electric lawnmower if I were you. Good luck Dave

The customer representative said that its an error that they've recognized. Just charge it for some time and you'll be good.mine has the same problem too but the battery lasts long enough.The problem is with the battery level indicator and not with the battery. If your deck gives poor battery life then you should complain to the customer service.

U should charge it once per month. Never let it drained completely. We hooked ours to solar during the day. We don't charge it using AC power much

Ive had mine for 3 seasons and now into the 4th. Same battery, always charging when not using. Flat lawn about 1/4 acre. Super happy even in wet grass thats a bit tall, you won't plow thru it but it won't be any slower than expected. No obstacles like acorns or branches to contend with either on our lawn. Charge it fully before you first use it, and aviod draining it completely, in fact if possible just use it til half a charge and your battery will last much much longer ( about 25-28 mins). Go get one!

No, never had that issue. After mine is fully charged, I can use it nightly for about 15 min. walking my dog, and it stays charged for 5-7 nights.

Brand new with average use it will last more than 20 hours. Do not make the mistake of overcharging the battery. Disconnect right after it is fully charged. The battery will start dying faster which happened to me.

Hey there, I left mine plugged in this winter and it completely drained it and it wouldn't hold a charge. The note on the charger clearly says not to keep it plugged in at cold temperatures. So totally my fault. I went to Batteries Express and had it replaced(well there are actually two inside of it), just shy of 120 bucks, but cheaper than buying a whole new unit.

I have a different model shark. After having similar problems with a short battery charge life, I researched online. Apparently many people have experienced short charge lengths. I still have mine because when it works it works fine. If allowed to charge a long time, charge will last longer.

You cannot overcharge the battery so don't worry about it. Also no harm done if you undercharge. I have had mine for years, and to be honest do not charge it regularly, and have not had any problems. These are really just guidelines.

My experience thus far is 3 hour charge capacity. I have no complaints about the quality aspects for the price that I paid. Hope this hels

As others have said I didn't have a problem. However I did charge it over night. The battery life is rather short.

The one I purchased came charged. I just installed it and it worked perfectly. I did get an extra couple of months out of my old battery by charging it with a 12 volt car battery charger but it finally would no longer take a charge.

I'm not sure what the battery life is. I got mine last year and used it the entire season and had no issues. I just powered it up now to answer your question and mine still works great.

Mine has been awesome. Charged it the first time and took it deer hunting and used it a lot without it going out or needing another charge. Have been using it here at the house to do chores in the evenings. I just charged it back up last weekend. I would comfortly say I have had it on for well over 6 hours on the initial charge. The last week here as been below zero and I have had to use it out working and it has not fadded at all. I'd ask for a replacement if at all possible.

Hasn't been a problem for me but the more I read, the more I see owners having 'issues' with power-related matters (not fully charging, etc.). The battery on the unit itself seems to perform well under stated times and (for me) is slow to recharge. Good luck with it.
