Earthwise 60020 20-Inch 24 Volt Cordless Electric 3-in-1 Lawn Mower with Grass Bag Review

FYI, this item is identical to the Homelite mower sold at many Home Depot locations (I don't work for any of these outfits). The two are identical except for the the colors. I contacted Earthwise to be certain, and they confirmed it, so buy either one.
This product, to my surprise, is as good as the Ryobi Mulchinator I used to own-- and it was the best cordless mower made in the late 1990's by a large margin. Like that one, this one effectively mulches the grass, even if moist, so small that there is no reason to use the bag or side discharge features. The height adjust is easy, the pushing is easy (for an adult), and you don't have to do any real maintenance (just keep it clean underneath). For the average lawn (I have 3000 square feet), this product has enough charge to do the job, is not quite as loud as a gas mower, and is just as powerful as a typical 4-5 hp model. You can charge it for a few bucks per year. It requires no assembly or tuneups, and tipping it in any direction will not cause a problem. Unless you use it commercially or for a very large property, this product is superior to a gasoline model, and way cleaner! Try a cordless electric model, and you will never want anything else!

Maytag MVWX600XW MVWX600XW Top Load Washer Review

Maytag MVWX600XW MVWX600XW Top Load Washer

(More customer reviews)
This might be a great washer for someone who does not own pets, but if you have pets as I do (two cats), run from this thing like the plague! It has no clue how to remove pet hair from clothing. Had I been allowed, I'd have given it zero stars.
My old washer had a strainer on top of the agitator that caught hair and lint as it was carried by the recycling water during the wash and rinse cycles. This thing has no way to remove pet hair and lint except to strain it through the clothing as it drains water at the end of each cycle. The result is that whatever pet fur and lint had been removed just settles back onto the clothing; the best it can do is redistribute the pet fur and lint. It's discouraging to have to "lint roll" freshly washed clothes so that they are presentable for wearing. It's even more discouraging to know that the 25-plus year old "antique" that I threw away was far, far more effective in removing hair from clothing than this modern marvel.
I even e-mailed Maytag with my complaints. They had no answers, just suggestions that I use the bulky setting to bring more water into the tub (and thus offset the water savings I was told I would get) and use more detergent--both of which I'd tried in vain before contacting the company.

Black & Decker MM575 Lawn Hog 18-Inch 12 amp Electric Mulching Mower Review

Black and Decker MM575 Lawn Hog 18-Inch 12 amp Electric Mulching Mower

(More customer reviews)
Ive been on a battery/electric operated yard tool craze. When my gas mower died a few weeks ago I started looking into electric mowers as a compliment to my battery operated BD, weedeater,blower,hedge clippers. I was hesitant as an electric mower for a 12,000 lot is a big step, giving up on ease of movement and power and selfpropelled feature or so i thought.
Well i ordered off of Amazon and it came within 72 hours, free shipping WOW and the price was terrific compared to local stores and no tax...
Anyway, i put it together and it was ready to use within 10 minutes, really!!!
You do need an electrical cord to operate and i had 100' cord which is perfect for my yard. My yard has not been mowed in several weeks as my gas mower died and i did not want to spend the money for reserection of a 4 year old mower plus gas prices are crazy right now. I did plan my route since i would have a cord i was pulling. Turned it on and it was amazing on how much less noise it was compared to my gas mower. My wife came out and asked when i was going to start but had been mowing for 15 minutes, lol.
I started in the mulching mode at first and not paying attention had it on the lowest setting....it was going fine but when i hit thicker deeper grass it did bogg down. I inserted the discharge shute and even on the lowest setting in taller grass it mowed fine. Once i realized i had it on the lowest setting and moved it up in height comparable to my gas mower the electric mower never bogged down one time even when mulching!!! The cord is not bad at all although i did have to get used to it as i wrapped it around the tree once and just laughed at myself. I thought i would miss the self propelled feature, however, this mower is sooo light its like pushing a vacum cleaner so i was managing the cord with my left, pushing with my right and no problems, mowed like a champ, no uneven cuts. My neighbors came out and were admiring the mower all commented on how nice and sleeked it looked for a mower and how quiet it was.
I would recommend this mower to anyone wanting to go electric as the cord is not that big a deal like i thought i would be when reading the reviews. So far so good B&D has a home run with this mower.

The Black & Decker Electric Lawn Hog Mulching Mower lets you spend your time maintaining your lawn and not your mower. There's no worrying about gas, oil, or tune-ups--just plug it in when you're ready to manicure your lawn. The 18-inch blade covers lots of ground and turns clippings into mulch to help fertilize your grass. On-board adjustments let you pick the perfect deck height for your lawn and the best handle length for your comfort.
Quiet, Low-Maintenance Electric MotorThe Lawn Hog eliminates cleaning spark plugs, stopping for refills, or spending more money on gas. The 12 Amp motor delivers more than enough power to chop through tough grass for an even cut. You'll also eliminate the emissions and noise associated with gas motors, protecting your environment, hearing, and status as a considerate neighbor.
Adjustable for Cut and ComfortSet the deck level between 1 and 3 1/2 inches for the grass height that's best for your lawn. One lever adjusts all four wheels for a close cut or plush pile. The handle can be adjusted to fit your height, providing you with a better mowing posture that keeps you comfortable while fighting fatigue.
Mulching Action Eliminates BaggingYou won't just mow your lawn, you'll be turning your grass clippings into nutrient-rich mulch. Open the side chute to spread the clippings over your lawn, or pick up the optional bag to gather and add them to your compost pile.
Perfect for your small or medium sized lawn, the Lawn Hog will mow within a 100-foot radius of the nearest outlet. With its compact size, it is easy to control for a precise cut, and it stores out of the way when not in use.
The Lawn Hog 18-Inch Electric Mower is covered by a full two-year warranty.

Excellent purchase. Instant hot water. Space saving since it's mounted outside. Only drawback we've experienced so far was when the temperature dipped to -20 and the igniter had some problems that resulted in no hot water for a few days. Other than that, showers on well water for days!

Solaris S21HB 21-Inch 24-Volt Cordless Mulching Lawn Mower with Bag and Side Discharge Review

Solaris S21HB 21-Inch 24-Volt Cordless Mulching Lawn Mower with Bag and Side Discharge
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I initially considered the "SP" version of this mower @ Home Depot...the only model they sell. If you have serious elevation changes in your yard, perhaps the self-propelled version is worthwhile [whether the front-wheel drive Solaris or its rear-wheel drive Epic & Utopia cousins]. Otherwise, buy this model. You can't get this info from the Linamar website, but the self-propelled versions are 18# heavier; when you're trying to make a battery charge last, draining them via an extra drive belt to pull/push a [heavier] mower makes little sense.
This mower is solidly built, & the big wheels make it easy to push & quite maneuverable. I gave it a test run, then handed it off to the 16-year old who cuts my grass. No issues. I was particularly pleased to see how well it mulched, as I'm a big believer in leaving clippings to nourish the lawn. There was no clumping, & as long as we don't cut wet grass, I expect it to stay that way.
Other cordless mowers probably perform as well, though most have decks smaller than this one's 21" which means longer mowing time. I think the Solaris' brushless motor is a huge advantage, & expect great longevity. Ultimately, though, I rejected most other mowers because replacing their batteries was cumbersome or impossible; I think that's nuts. The Solaris batteries swap out in seconds. Mine lasted about as long as expected, covering 80% of my .4 acres. With the money I saved by skipping the self-propelled feature [& headaches], I bought a 2nd set of batteries & have power to spare. It's a great solution, & my neighbors--including one who just bought an $800 Honda to get a pushbutton start like mine--are jealous.
The cons are minor. Changing deck height requires moving 4 levers instead of 1...but I only do this a couple of times a season. The tone it emits on stopping is irritating [hold the bail down or pull the key to silence]. Charger mechanical connections could be tighter. Overall, though, well-designed & well-built.

The included batteries only take 12 hours to charge, or they can be charged in four to five hours with the Rapid Charger Station sold separately. Charging can be done on board the mower with the built-in charging plug, or you can remove the batteries and recharge them using the included off-board charging cradle.

Earthwise 60120 20-Inch 24-Volt Cordless Electric Lawn Mower Review

Earthwise 60120 20-Inch 24-Volt Cordless Electric Lawn Mower
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I got tired of messing with gasoline, oil, and the mixing, pouring, and spilling of the two, so I gave all my lawn equipment away and hired a gardener - 2 years later realize what a mistake - all gardener does is mow grass every 2 weeks and charge $$$$ for everything else. So I decided to to take back my yard and went online to research electric mowers and decrease my carbon footprint.
I was all ready to purchase a corded model when I came across the Earthwise 20" 24 volt cordless rechargeable. I must admit that I was very apprehensive about cordless, I've owned many gutless cordless power tools. During my research of the Earthwise I ran across a video that showed the lawnmower in action - I was sold. I purchased immediately and have been extremely pleased.
This mower has all the power that I could ever need to take care of my yard (approx. 1/4 acre of grass, with some on a slope). The battery came fully charged and I had the mower out of the box, fully assembled (very easy), and out mowing withing 20 minutes. Used the grass catcher just to see how it worked (did a great job), then took it off and have mulched ever since (this machine turns your grass into the minutest particles).
It is very well constructed (the deck is metal - this is good), the height adjustment could not be easier (one lever adjusts all wheels - again, very good), it pushes very easily (thanks to the ball-bearing wheels), and the handle folds to make for very compact storage.
My yard and I am happy again!
