Our lawn mower had the housing crack where the front wheel attaches to it so it's days are numbered. I'm surprised because the deck looks to be rust free so the front metal section cracking is odd. It's at least 10 years old and it burns oil pretty bad. So I'm thinking about one of the cordless 60-80v battery powered mowers. I'm mainly tired of breathing in the fumes so why not try the battery ones. This summer we had some pretty tall grass with all the rain so it makes me wonder how much cutting I would really get out of 1 charge. I know I won't be able to cut both the front and back yards with a single battery but as long as I can make it through one and recharge the battery to do the other half later or the next day, I'm fine with it. The one I like right now is the Greenworks 80v 21" with the 4a battery. I don't really want self propelled because I change walking speed with the thicker areas and I've tried them before and it drove me crazy so why pay for a feature I won't use.
