Great video! Thank you for reviewing this product. How did it sound while operating? How was the turning radius? Thanks again!

@AlanAlford 8 ай бұрын

@tacorye the turning radius is extremely tight! I honestly don't feel the need for a zero turn with this lawn mower. It's really quiet. Sounds like a soft whoooo sound. Neighbor even mentioned how quiet it is to me just the other day. Excellent mower. Love it! PRORUN service is also fantastic! 💯🙏🏽🎙🙂

That's because despite all the hate over electric stuff, well designed electric stuff has very little that can break or go wrong. An electric lawn mower would probably last until the frame rots away with only needing to keep it clean and changing out the batteries every so often. The motors might get heat damage if they get clogged with grass and there may be eventual water damage of the motors, but overall, not much to break or go wrong compared to a gas powered mower. Same with basic electric cars too. The expense of an electric car is usually the batteries and the death of an electric car is usually due to cost of replacing batteries.

My question is we are moving to a new house with .5 acre of lawn. Would a push/self-propelled mower be fine or should I consider one of the pricey riding models?

@AlanAlford 8 ай бұрын

@1a-1z9xp that's a great question. That's really a preference choice. You can do it with a self-propelled but you will be putting in a quite a bit of work. This riding mower will make life a whole lot easier! 💯🙏🏽🎙🙂

I made a wonderful choice and highly recommend it!

@tacorye i had so many issues with the i just said forget it lol. however it is a pretty good mower. i have a zero lot on corner so some spots i back up instead of turn around but it has the tighest turn radius you can have without going the zero turn route. overall,id say its pretty good and its a fair sized deck at 38"

@AlanAlford 8 ай бұрын

@@lildell04 so sorry to hear you have been having all these issues. Yes the turn radius is very tight! No need for a zero turn in my opinion. Lol. The PRORUN is too expensive to just forget it. Please let me know all the exact issues your having with the mower.

I received mine September 18th. It won't go forward or reverse. I am working with Prorun. First they sent me a new seat safety switch. That didn't fix anything. Just to double check....To start it up you just turn it to on, release the brake and press the forward pedal and it should move? I feel like I'm missing something so simple or the store didn't put it together correctly?

@AlanAlford 2 ай бұрын

@jillfleiger8715 thanks for reaching out! Congrats and also sorry, to hear about your PRORUN PRM48V38 challenges. Yes, make sure the brake is not engaged. Turn the key all the way to the right. Press the forward pedal or back pedal to go. Once moving. Push in the blades button to engage the blades, pull up to stop and you're off to a beautifully cut lawn. One thing you can double check, is under the seat compartment are large red and black connections. If you haven't done so already make sure there connected. Make sure the batteries are charged too. If it doesn't work something is unfortunately off. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Please don't forget if you haven't done so already to please Subscribe. Thanks for watching and please keep me posted on your progress.

Good evening Alan. First thank you for turning me onto that BBQ sauce. I pit smoke 3-4 Boston Butts every few months for family gatherings and will be getting some to try. My question. I'm 6'3". Not sure of your height but just wanted your opinion if this mower will work at my height? Thank you.

@AlanAlford 4 ай бұрын

Good Morning @ryansmith7062. So glad to meet you! Yes, Chef G's BBQ Sauce is amazing! 😋So sorry for the delay in response. I actually had to check into this. Even sliding the seat all the way back I unfortunately would only recommend it at 6'3" if you're ok with being cramped and uncomfortable. The seat doesn't go back far and you're Blessed with Tom Brady type height! It's one outstanding mower though! Please let me know if you need assistance in any other way! 💯🙏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙂

@@CP-nf9my no bagger attachment is made for the PRORUN PRM48V38. They did send the mulcher kit for the lawnmower free of charge, upon request. Extremely cool! With this attachment, as long as your grass is not too high, no need for a bagger. Cuts the grass into very small particles. Leaves your grass beautiful without blowing grass particles everywhere.

@AlanAlford 4 ай бұрын

@coffeehawk. It's rear wheel drive with the 2 wheels in the rear moving the unit. Think of it like a rear-wheel-drive car. The exact same principle. The two rear wheels power the unit. The front who are for steering. 💯🙏🏽🎙🙂

@coffeehawk 4 ай бұрын

@@AlanAlford That's the point, a car has a differential, some of which allow both rear tires to be driven. On mowers it can very. either the motor drives one rear wheel ONLY, or there is a differential or clutch pack allowing the motor to drive both rear wheels. This is helpful for slippery conditions or hills, which some potential buyers need to know. BTW, that notwithstanding it does seem like a mower built for what people need. I'm interested in it.

@@coffeehawk it's an awesome lawnmower! I sharpened the blades for the first time the other day. It cut the grass beautifully! It's rear wheel drive only. No way to switch from front or rear.

My mower came damaged. Rear wheels/tires shredded. Contacted PRORUN. Yeah, I will be getting replacement parts, but now its a DIY project. Also put together time, unboxing, breaking down packaging material for garbage pickup...it isn't 35 minutes. Seat securing to frame not easy. Batteries not fully charged. Also contacted Amazon from whom I purchased the mower. They lowered the price from only 5 days ago by 13%. I asked for a price adjustment. See how that goes. So far not good and I haven't even cut a blade of grass yet.

@AlanAlford 7 ай бұрын

@andrewtee7137 so sorry you've been having all these issues with the PRM48V38. I reached out to PRORUN to discuss some of your issues. Awaiting a response. As for the setup time, for me it was just as the video stated. Even did this while filming which definitely slows your production speed down. Not going to lie. I was in the zone! If it took me 15-20 minutes and you 35 minutes that's really no big deal. Maybe, I'm not giving myself enough credit and I'm he! The 2024 version of Bob Villa! Lol! In all fairness, I purchased my PRM48V38 from Lowes directly. I filmed and took photos of the delivery Men. Everything was perfect! Delivery men were mad cool too! This was edited out of the video in order to shorten it up. In addition, I might have been the first to ever purchase the PRM48V38. Amazon might handle things differently. Here's a recent video of how some employees handle packages. kzbin.info/www/bejne/imelo51qoM2lqacsi=-d-utNcKkbyzWIP9 PRORUN service is excellent. It may be more intrusive and a rough start, but how it finishes is most important. I cut my grass the other day and it came out beautiful! Once everything gets sorted out. You will too. Definitely charge the batteries up. In fact, I started using it right after assembly. No immediate charge needed. My videos are true to form. Don't worry PRORUN got you covered. I will keep you in the loop if I hear anything about your case. Please let me know too. 💯🙏🏽🎙🙂

My gawd that beeper is annoying af. Sounds like a smoke alarm going off. Please tell me it doesn't make that noise with the lights on when moving.

@AlanAlford 4 ай бұрын

Lol!!! @MmmHuggles. No, it only beeps like that when you get off the mower and the key in the on position (lights on or off) but the mower is ready to run. Saves your battery from draining. It also beeps like that when you're backing up with the blades on or off. These are both actually very good safety warnings. This mower is fast so if you back up and someone is behind you, they will be alerted. Might be slightly annoying at times but definitely handy. Thanks for watching! Please don't forget to Subscribe.
