Best Electric Lawn Mower Deals: Shop Now for the Best Deals and Save Up to $300 – CNET

While winter storms are still scattering snow, a lush lawn may be the furthest thing from your mind. But when it comes to electric lawn mowers, shopping for these pricey pieces of yard equipment during the off-season can save you some serious green. Electric mowers have a number of perks: They’re quieter than their gas counterparts, and you don’t have the hassle with the gas-oil ratio that the usual two-stroke engines require. Unless you have a large area to cover and prefer a riding lawn mower, electric mowers are usually more than efficient for the average home yard.

Far from the cheapest lawn mower around, this EGO Power Plus LM2156SP definitely looks the part. It’s also one of the best electric lawn mowers around right now. It packs a 21-inch cutting width and a customizable cutting performance thanks to a multiblade system. You won’t have to fight with it, either, thanks to 8.3 foot-pounds of cutting torque to ensure power and performance that even gas-powered mowers might envy.

This lawn mower comes with four batteries and a 21-inch cutting width, all in a package that spins its blades at 3,000 rpm. You’ll get more than 40 minutes of run time with those four batteries, and the plastic construction means that this mower weighs less for easier pushing across the surface. You can also adjust the cutting height using a single lever system.

Though it didn’t make the top spot, our team of reviewers found this to be a decent model and one of our contributors has this one at home. She reports it’s easy to use, ultraquiet and simple to change the batteries. The battery lasts right around 45 minutes, which covers a quarter of an acre, similar to what the manufacturer claims. It may be worth buying a second battery to keep charged if you need to mow more than that.
