I bought a 60V lawnmower last year, and while I've generally been satisfied, I've noticed it struggles to cut the grass right down the center. This has happened with both units I've had (the first was recalled, hence the second). I checked the blade and there are no obvious nicks, but it's not as sharp as it could be. I'm hoping someone here can help me find a fix for this issue!

It might help to try slowing down your mowing speed a bit. Also, if the grass is particularly long, that could be affecting the cut. And don’t forget that sharpening the blades might make a big difference!
If the mower is pushing down on the grass too much, it might be worth investing in some mulching blades. They could help lift the grass better before it gets cut. I heard Oregon Gators are a good choice, but do keep in mind that DeWalt mowers have specific blade attachments.
Have you checked under the mower deck for any obstructions? It could be that something is blocking the vacuum that's meant to lift the grass up for a clean cut. Sometimes, there can be an issue with the setup that affects how well it cuts, not just the power from the battery.
