i would like to buy this for my 11-year old. he wants to cut the lawn. do you think that this is safe enough for him?

Yes with a little help at first he should have no problem. I allowed my next door neighbor, who is 5 years old, try the one I have and he did a good job.

I would not recommend this for any type of growth other than grass or dandelions. It is good on grass but a branch might be harder to cut and cause the blades to separate.

I bought it for my 11year old son and he loves it, I can say I think it is perfect for him, target and small rodents. As long as they've been to follow good gun safety

It is legal. Probably not ideal for yard work except for maybe splitting small peices of wood.

cuts well as long as you don't high really high grass. Strands of high grass will get bent down and run over instead of feeding into the blades. I really like it for new seedling grass as its a heatheir and more delicate cut. Also my young teens can easily & safely cut the grass for me when I need them to. Really good deal for the price when comparing it to similar ones!

It works fine. I have small lawn. You have to be careful of the cord. Cuts great.

I have a 12 yr old son and I didn't allow him to take any of mine, even though he wanted to. My son has a lot of knife experience and I was nervous about him having this knife. In my opinion, no, this isn't the right choice for a 12 yr old.

I would say it is OK for beginners, if you mean a child old enough to be a little responsible. Short of shooting someone in the face it isn't powerful enough to do damage. It is full auto, so it can put out a lot of pellets- my son is not allowed to load or use it inside the house, it is an outside only toy.

I bought mine for my son a few months ago and his doesn't seem to go great on the grass. When it's just mowed it seams to work O.K. so now he will also push it on the driveway,in the garage and when we go for walk on the street.

Since this is not a toy and comes with a very sharp edge, I would not recommend it for children. Teens, who have shown themselves to be responsible, could appreciate the dangers inherent in a sharp, edged weapon. It is most appropriate to someone who appreciates the workmanship and is a Tolkien buff. Again, it is not a toy and should be treated with respect and caution, not as a plaything.

Hello, not that I've noticed. The only safety I know of is locking it up in the garage. I have often wondered, what might happen were someone to trip toward the mower and land on it, I have a feeling it wouldn't be a pretty sight. I'd say, be careful. MAJORLY recommended though, great fun little mower for small spaces, and it makes a lovely little whirring sound as you walk along, which I personally find quite appealing!

It is durable enough to use on grass, but the net would be very low. It would work for little kids.

Bought this for my dad a few months ago. He said he would let me know if I needed to order mulching blades, he never did and when I asked him about it he said that he saw no need. He mows in a. Business park that's very picky so I would be inclined to say no unless you're knocking down grass that three feet tall.

My son is 10 and hits baseballs into it and it holds up fine. IF it's too windy it's difficult to stay standing, and it can be difficult to fold up. To answer your question, I think it would depend on the age and strength of the user.

Its ok if you cut grass that isn't that tall or thick. Keeping the blade sharp helps also.

I think it might be dangerous for a 2 yr. old...it is very fast. There is a model for kids age 2 to 5 which would be safer.

There's certainly nothing sharp or dangerous in the case itself, if that's a concern. The case is quite sturdy and the stand set up is very easy to use, so a child should have no problem with it. A friend confirms that her 6-year-old granddaughter would have no trouble using a case like this.
