Go Green on your lawn
GreenWorks 25142 10 Amp Corded 16-Inch Lawn Mower Ok Ladies and Gentlemen, let us discuss why you would buy an electric lawnmower over a traditional gas powered mower or a non-powered mower. I have a smallish back yard that I have to mow. I have previously tried to mow a very similar yard with the unpowered mower and ended up spending more time going over the exact same area than I felt was appropriate. Those things are designed to do something by hand that we now do with a traditional mower way more efficiently. Let’s move onto gas mowers. I have a small yard. HA! So to me, storing fuel and oil for the lawn mower seemed like an unnecessary risk, even if it is a small risk. Plus, I would have to travel to the store to get the fuel from time to time. Now onto the electric mower, of which I have seen two types. There is the plug in kind (which this is) and there is battery powered. I looked at both and although I really liked the idea of battery powered and no cord to run over, I decided the additional cost and the environmental impact the batteries make didn’t translate to worthwhile for me. I purchased the 10 AMP Corded GreenWorks mower and overall I am very satisfied with the performance. It can mulch the grass or you can attach the supplied bag to it and catch all the clippings. Normally I just mulch it. It folds up fairly well and is fairly light so I am able to carry it into my small shed and store it under a cabinet. I have had some issues with the level adjustment. It might be my fault from hauling it around, but it is difficult to raise and lower it after less than one year of owning it. The only other complaint I have is, that at 10 AMP is slightly underpowered and seems to struggle with taller grass. You just needed to move a bit slower. If I buy another it will be the more powerful model. In conclusion, if you need a mower and you have a smaller yard, then purchase this. You won’t be disappointed once you get used to the vacuum sound it produces and learn how to cut with an electric mower.
