Lawn mower

[vraiblonde]

I have this idea that I want a battery-operated electric mulching mower. I have about a half acre, level.

Anyone want to talk me out of it?

Careful what you wish for.

Sure.

Are you an idiot?

Don't pick on her.

My Grandfather used to have an electric push mower. I remember mowing the grass and feeling like I was vacuuming because I kept having to gather the cord.

You shouldn't buy that mower, Vrai. Instead, you should purchase our spare John Deere riding mower. It's a real lawnmower.

What if you accidentally run over the cord?

Oh wait, I'm thinking you probably don't mow with it plugged in.

Key words - battery operated. No cord.

I want something I don't have to *deal* with. I hate regular mowers because they don't start without massive muscling, then they want to conk out on you. I am too retarded to have something that needs to be messed with.

It just seemed no-brainer to me to have an electric one that you push a button, then it mulches for you too, so you don't have to fiddle with lawn clippings.

Did Al Gore think of this,too?

I'm a willowy thing, and even I can manage to use a pull start mower, so that probably wouldn't be an issue, assuming you got a decent one. The only thing I can't (won't) do is sharpen mower blades. That being said, buy whichever one you want, you're the one that'll be using it.

You should hire Boy. He needs a job to feed his paintball habit. No mower, no gas, no fuss. We can sit on the porch drinking beer and watching him.

I considered buying one. I have only about 15 minutes that I need to use the push mower for. I don't think I would try doing a large area though. Very time consuming.

This seems to be the PM consensus from the men.

Hey, this is why I asked!

Could he do it once a week or so? I would consider that, but it goofs up my exercise rationale.

I am sure we can work that out.

I've been known to work for BEER.

Are you going to be living around the Jazz, CMC, WR & DidWhat neighborhood?

I can't believe you would take CO2 and paintball money right out of a little kids hands.

Vrai, we bought a "Neuton" electric mower thinking that it would be the end all for grass cutting. No gas, no oil, etc. It wasn't. We have a very small lot and the mower battery wouldn't even last 45 minutes and they aren't cheap. If the grass was too thick, it would slow down then pop the built in circuit breaker. It is a mulching mower and it is very light but it just doesn't cut it (pun intended). It only has a 14 inch cut. They are at www.neutonmower.com if you're interested but I was disappointed with this one. You will have to cut the grass often & only when it is short and you might need 2 batteries depending on your lot size.

They make electric start push mowers, gas.. better for the environment than the electirc ones.
