I haven’t used it yet, but am disappointed it doesn’t have a side chute. I should have researched it more.

Ordered on line the mower arrived on time went together easily no problem or tools needed went to work that day used once a week for a moth and love using it

Only used it a couple times as winter is creeping in here in Pa…but I worked great…love the push button start with no gas or oil mess.

Really the perfect mower to handle my hill. Has just enough battery for completing my flat front and sloped back yards before it needs to be charged. The hills in back would be very hard without the self-propelled aspect which does eat up battery but I don’t need it out front so it works!

Works adequately, but doesn’t seem to have as much suction power from the blade as much as a gas power mower does

Amazed by how quiet and easy it is to start up. Never going back to gas

Only have used it twice, but no problems so far. Very quiet compared to my old mower and stores compactly in my garage space. I was able to cut my entire yard, which sits on a quarter acre, using only the 6ah battery. Very impressive.

I love this mower. I can do my front and back yard with the mower and use up less than half of the battery. Being able to fold an electric mower up is really what sold me but also not having to change oil or worry about gas is great. It also has way more power than I expected. Highly recommend!!

Since I have not used it as of now, I cannot rate this one but my sister’s mower works very well.

I am 72 years old and have asthma and have had 3 heart surgeries. I mow my very large lawn and my gas mower was exhausting me. I purchased this in June of 2020 and I like it better every time I use it. I go back and forth between push and self propelled, but the self propelled makes it much easier for me depending on where I am. Sometimes I have to do a quick recharge on the battery depending on how much I use the self propelled, but no big deal. I can take a quick break and go back to work. I don’t feel I would be able to continue doing my yard without it and what a great form of exercise for me. The quietness of the mower and the lightness are just an extra bonus. And to think I originally didn’t want a battery powered mower. Thanks.

Although it’s winter and I can’t use it yet, my neighbor has one and I used it several times last summer and loved hence the reason of me purchasing my own

I bought this about two months ago. Done few moving since we are already in winter. As few folks mentioned it did stop when the surface is not even. I believe this happens to stop the blades being hit the floor due to slope nature of ground. My son loves it. No sound. No string to pull to get started. Will be using in full swing by spring time. Will update the review as well that time.

Easy to use, powerful, and no cord!

Not happy worth the fact it will not cut certain weeds. It chews but will not cut the weeds. It cuts the grass though. I weed eater my property to cut the weeds on my one acre property.
Luciano Skiles (verified owner) –
Bought this for use at my new house and daughters new house. Son-in-law raves about how well it mows, quick and easy and long life 6ah battery.

Everything I expected and all the power I expected
Bertha Ferry (verified owner) –
Was skeptical of going battery when so many recommendations werr for gas. I didn’t want to deal with a gas mower, gas and oil changes so I went with this one and I’m happy I did. Takes care of my 1/4 acre lot nicely on a bi weekly basis. Any longer than that the battery runs out faster so keep in mind that if your grass is a bit too tall, it will take more juice from the battery to clean it all up in one shot.

Bought it yesterday, assembled and used it today. Very pleased with everything so far start to finish.Including assembly, self propelled and cut. So much better than gas self prlopelled mower.Multiple other Ryobi tools over the years and two replacements also purchased yestersdayplus market comparison made my decision very easy.
