If the other hand is just holding onto the handle under the lever , it will be squeezed by the handle. It doesn’t hurt when that happens, but it is a bit awkward. The wheels on the mower are plastic, but with good tread for digging into grass, especially since the rear wheels are 10 in. When we tried to use the self-propel lever, we did indeed feel a small jolt of speed…and that was it.
Check bag frequently for deterioration and wear, and replace worn bags. Check that replacement bags comply with the original manufacturer’s recommendations or specifications. To help avoid the blade or an injury from thrown objects, stay in the operator zone behind the handles. With a lightning-fast wind-up time, great performance, and a great battery system the Milwaukee M18 Fuel is one of our favorites. Although this battery is massive, it charges in 30 minutes. Battery compartments that are located on top of the saw body make it easy to attach and remove the power bank.
Look for the DWYM seal for products that are the best in the category. We made a fun web story comparing the EGO and Greenworks mowers. I am going to give Greenworks the medal because of the metal.
Having used and appreciated the commercial 25-inch lawn mower from Greenworks, we loved how they transitioned that product into a consumer product. Now residential users have the option to choose between a traditional 21-inch mower and a wider 25-inch model with dual batteries. That can really shorten your mowing time on larger lawns.
The Ego Powerload String 80V family of tools meet the challenge with a universal battery system that works across multiple products, high-efficiency motors and innovative smart technology. It all adds up to a full modern and quality made line of outdoor power equipment with plenty of power. Lightweight and easier to use, it has a variable speed trigger for power on-demand, 14/16-inch cut path, .080 dual line bump feed and die cast gear box for durability. Designed for heavy duty jobs, it features a brushless motor that delivers the power and performance of a 32cc gas engine. Many self-propelled mowers give you three key options.
It was very quiet, never once wandered out of the perimeter, and navigated inclines and depressions in my lawn without issue. Compatible batteries currently include a 2Ah and 4Ah battery and rapid charger . The 2Ah battery charges within 30 minutes so you can get back to work and finish the job.
We consider this a reasonable maintenance cut—at least for Florida in the summer months. Most of our grass is Bahia with some sections of St. Augustine. The Greenworks 25-inch lawn mower sucks grass up pretty well with its default blades. We checked the bag and it collected a lot more material than we find with many competing brands.
