Reply #19: I've never been constrained by my corded electric [View All]

I'm guessing most houses have an outlet in front and back. You do have to be mindful not to run over the cord. Which mostly involves reminding yourself that yes, you can let the mower stop any time you want (since you don't have to crank it back up again as with a gas mower). Doesn't take long to realize you just keep the cord between you and the outlet (i.e. on the already-mown part).

It does mean a back-and-forth pattern rather than an around-the-yard spiralling-in one.

Never had any trouble with power. Comparable to my old gas mowers. Did I mention that you don't have to crank it back up? Geez I love that.

(and it's quiet)
