We have somewhat small yard so it works perfect. The handle folds forward so it fits perfectly in our garden shed,  and the one touch height adjustment is the coolest thing ever.

I had reel mower that worked fine for a few years, but I was doing more damage to the yard by using it than good. In just the short time I've been using the new electric.... the grass is greener and waaaaay thicker.

Make sure to dump a shit ton of nitrates on your yard (or maybe it was some other fertizler, I was half paying attention)

Same moronic brother did that last year.

His yard was so make the beast with two backsing green, it didn't look real.

I still laugh at my neighbor growing up with his hundreds and hundreds of feet of cord.


Electric Yard Power Tools that are connected with a cord are worthless.

My parents had a set of power trimmers........old craftsman ones.

The cord got hacked and cut pretty make the beast with two backsing quick.

Funny you mention that. I remember as a kid a neighbor about 12 doors down had an electric mower. This had to be one of the first. We are talking early 90's here.

I had to mow our yard with an electric mower. In 1983. Electric mowers suck. Cord gets in the way.
