There are a few reviews on the Lowe's site but not many. I'll give it a try for a few weeks and if I don't like it return it.MooseOnLoose wrote: ↑ I can't seem to find any reviews of the 60V version, all the evaluations I've read are of the 80V version.
Not that more volts = better, it would seem that the highly-rated EGO is 56V. But I would like to see some evaluations of this specific model before pulling the trigger.
I'm particularly interested in a mower that's good at mulching: Consumer Reports only rates the 80V Kobalt model as "good" I don't want the hassle of bagging up all that crap and it's meant to be better for your lawn anyway to let it just fall in. Plus a good mulching mower can apparently chew up leaves as well instead of bagging those. The Kobalt corded mower mulches well according to Consumer Reports, with a "very good" rating for that category, but...has a chord.
If only I could afford an Ego.
Snapper and Greenworks are cousins of the Kobalt. You can read some reviews:MooseOnLoose wrote: ↑ I can't seem to find any reviews of the 60V version, all the evaluations I've read are of the 80V version.

Relax, they'll last more than 3 years. Don't keep them in the garage because heat destroys batteries. In the winter keep them indoors with a little less than full charge. These batteries are multi-cell so when they have failures you'll lose a cell and see diminished power and run time before a complete battery failure.rupendra76 wrote: ↑ Batteries are warranted only for 3 years . So if the battery will last you 3 years and after that if you have to buy it , it will cost $350.00 just for the batteries. I am skeptical now to buy this thing. So if the battery fails after 3 years. Lawn mowing costing
350/3=117 a year, Don't know if it is worth it.
