Two Electric Powered Lawn Mowers Reviewed

Electric Powered Lawn Mowers

An electric powered lawn mower is the perfect tool for the eco-conscious person who demands a well-manicured lawn.  The best solution – by far – is still the old push mower – but many people just don’t have the strength (or desire) to struggle with our trusty old friend.
An electric mower addresses your concerns about reducing your carbon footprint, a major concern for us all to protect our planet from global warming.  Electric powered lawn mowers are extremely eco-friendly, as they do not foul the air with emissions like gas powered mowers do.
However, electric powered lawn mowers have need of an electric power source (natch) and so they need an extension cord to power the unit.  Now sharp blades and power cords do not mix well, though the danger is minimal if you understand how to use them properly.  However, if this concerns you, perhaps you might like to check these Rechargeable Cordless Lawn Mowers [http://amzn.to/1oBdBaY].
Some fifty million Americans mow their lawns every weekend and they use some 800 million gallons of gas each year.  This burned fuel fouls are air and belches carbon emissions that are slowly destroying our ecological balance and killing the earth – and us along with it.  This has to stop.
The electric powered lawn mowers below will help you to keep your lawn beautiful, while doing your part to protect the blue and golden paradise – of which all of us are a part.
Greenworks 25022 20-Inch 12 Amp - Bag/Mulch/Side Discharge - Electric powered lawn mower
ASIN: B002ZVOLXE
Item model number: 25022
The Greenworks models of electric powered lawn mower products offer good lawn control power without polluting the air.  Worries about buying and storing gas are outdated.  No more interrupting your lawn work for quick trips to the filling station because you ran out of gas.  No more tinkering away your weekend with tune-ups or maintenance either.  Electric powered lawn mowers do not need any maintenance.  They just fire up and go...
Product Features:
  • Cord lock
  • Handle lock
  • Easy folding and storage
  • Steel cutting deck
  • 7-position single lever height adjustment
The Greenworks 25022 ElecGreeworks electric powered lawn mowertric powered lawn mower is really a nice lawn maintenance tool.  It offers a 3-in-1 ability that includes rear bag, side-discharge and mulching so that you can easily switch between them.  The mower is large and substantial and sets up easily right out of the box.
The overwhelming majority of customers are super-pleased with this electric mower.  It well reviewed by customers who have seen fit to give it a remarkable 4.3 stars out of five!
Customer complaints (the few of them that are) register all over the map.  Some include the anticipated defective product, but for some customers the mower just seems to have died – for no reason.  With a customer rating of 4.3 stars these occurrences are obviously rare – but you still deserve to know.
Here is what other customers had to say:
**Grip is more comfortable than most, motor is strong and quiet, grass catcher works great (for grass and fall leaves) and best of all the large wheels roll over our bumpy, uneven lawn with half the effort.
**It's light-weight making easy to maneuver and so much quieter than the gas mowers we've had.
**Easy to manuver with the large wheels, the mulch feature works well, and the cutting area goes up to the front edge which is nice.
**If your grass is deep you need to be careful not to overload the motor, but for routine maintenance of a small yard this mower is excellent.
Therefore, if you have a small yard and don't want to mess about with gas and oil, or if you just want to do your bit to save the planer, this Greenworks electric powered lawn mower is a great option for you.
The next electric mower we will look at comes from the almost legendary Black & Decker.
Black & Decker LM175 18-Inch 6-1/2 amp Electric Powered Lawn Mower
ASIN: B00005AKZE
Item model number: LM175
Without any doubt, one of the best features of the Black & Decker LM175 Electric powered lawn mower is the price.  Not only is the price as cheap as gas-powered mowers, even a little cheaper, you will no longer spend a fortune on gas and oil and mechanical repairs.
Black and Decker Electric Powered Lawn MowerThis Black & Decker is smaller than the Greenworks mower with only an 18-inch cut, but if you don't have a very big yard, you don't need a wide cutting path.  This mower attempts to be small and lightweight enough for just about anyone to use, especially older people who just do not have the strength and stamina to push a heavy mower around anymore.
Product Features:
  • 5 Amp motor
  • 18-inch cutting path
  • 1-lever height adjustment that adjusts all four wheels at once from 1 to 3-1/2 inches
  • No gas, oil, or tune-ups to worry about
  • Weight: 35 pounds
This quality electric mower will serve you reliably for years to come.  It is not the fanciest of lawn mowers – but it certainly offers as many bells and whistles as you expect to find on a small lightweight mower such as this one.
The mower handles very well, and it offers a one-lever height adjustment that simultaneously adjusts all four wheels at once – again – a real benefit to those who might not be as strong as they once were.
The unit is capable to discharge from the polymer deck, or you can use the unit with an optional side bag.  It is all a matter of personal preference.
With a customer rating of 4.3 stars out of five, you might imagine that most customers are very happy with their lawn mower.  As with most electric mowers that we looked at, the biggest complaint is that the mower just quit for no clear reason.  Customers also were not happy with the time it took to get replacement parts when they needed repairs.  Let us eavesdrop on some of their comments, expressed in their own words…
**Cord management is something you get used to.  I use different patterns to mow than I would with a gas mower.  I try to minimize turns and move away from the cord.
**Make sure you dry the undercarriage or at least wipe off the nut holding on the blade and the front axle, I noticed rust could form if it sits.  I fixed that problem with 2 squirts of Rustoleum.
**Quiet: someone says it sounds like a hairdryer, and so it does.
**Very impressive little machine.  No need to store gas, breathe fumes, or fix the engine.
**Mows well - Granted it's not a bush hog.  The grass will bind it up if it's a foot long, but if you mow every week or two, this thing cuts through grass like butter.
If you are looking to replace a gas-powered mower, or you are replacing an old electric mower, be sure to check out these two models of electric powered lawn mower.  As with any major purchase, be sure to do your homework and buy the best model for your personal needs.
Shop Smart & Prosper!
