Ryobi and DeWalt Mower Recalls

Received my new one Friday. Completely new not refurbished. Be aware though batteries are not included you need to keep your old ones. When I asked what to do with the old one I was told dispose of it as per local regulations.

Lady I used to share my office with was a big envivo fan. She researched electric lawn mowers all winter a few years back. Come spring, she ordered what she thought was top of the line. Her yard was small, maybe an eighth of an acre, but the mower battery would die before she was half done. She immediately returned it after using it twice and bought a power mower. She was not happy with the experience.

1/4 acre yard and I mow it on one battery (mower came with two). I didn't buy it to be enviro, it was on sale and I am sick of ethanol effing up my stuff.

My trimmer just went south, thinking going electric. Recommendations on brand and voltage, system if I replace anything else.

If you want to spend the bucks Stihl would be my choice. They are really the leader in battery lawncare. For less money Ryobi would be my #2.
