Oof, I tried and purchased one of the highest rated and expensive electric mower on the market. It needed to be charged halfway through a 40x25 yard and the grass looked like shit compared to my gas Honda.
It was about the longest you’d ever want it just before having to hit it with a string trimmer. Similar issue mowing it a week after that. Just not even close the quality I get with a gas mower. I realllllllly want a good electric mower for the easy of storage and clean up but $1000 didn’t come close to the $300 Honda.
Out of curiosity what’d you get? Cause yeah I’m all about the environmental benefits, but really the nice part is just not having to fuck with a gas can, plus the maintenance is usually much less.
Dewalt Flexvolt. Maybe not the best but I own a ton of Flexvolt tools and they have the same if not more power than corded power tools. It was quiet, cleaned easy, light, but had problems with moderately high grass, slightly damp grass, mulch setting was hot garbage.

That doesn’t seem right. I have a larger yard x2 and can do it all on a single charge - mines mid priced and 4 years old too.
Yeah I’m can do my 25’ x 15’ (ish) lawn about 3-4x on a single charge and it’s on a modest slope too.
