Ryobi 40V cordless mower (RY40112A) from Homedepot
I got rid of my reel push mower because it was too much of a workout with multiple passes (~1500sqft lawn). A gas mower is overkill for my needs, so I'm looking for a cordless mower - I currently have my eyes on the Ryobi 40V model offered by Homedepot.
Here is what I view as important:
* Small (for storage)/light under 45 lbs.
* $450 budget
* Performance/reliability
* Light is nice
* 2 batteries
The Makita LM430 would have been ideal since I have a bunch of 18V batteries from their power tools, but it is not sold here. WHY? WHY? WHY!
The Stihl RMA 370 is also very nice but it will cost over $700 with batteries. Yikes!
There are mixed reviews on B&D and Greenworks products, but it seems the Ryobi 40V mower sold at Homedepot has just what I need - yet, I haven't found any mention or reviews of it on this forum - is there a reason why? Does anyone have experience, comments or feedback on this mower? Any reason why I shouldn't pursue this purchase? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
