Outdoor Tech
Best Buy has been working to help you bring your home life outdoors over the last few years. Our Outdoor Living section on BestBuy.com offers everything from patio furniture to fire pits, grills, etc. But warm weather also brings work. Working on your yard, that is.
One way Best Buy is helping you make your yard work easier and cleaner is with electric lawnmowers in our Outdoor Power Equipment selection.
Lawn Mower Benefits
Electric tools like the Sun Joe Lawn Mower are great alternatives to gas-powered machines. Electric mowers don’t require gas or oil, saving you time and money in maintaining your lawn equipment after a long Ohio winter. That also makes it less messy (and smelly) to store in your garage. Just plug the large battery into the included charger.
Electric mowers come in a range of sizes to fit needs and budgets. Best Buy currently carries brands like Greenworks and Sun Joe. Features on specific models include everything you'd find on regular mowers, including collection bags for easy disposal or mulching modes and self-propelled walk-behind models.
And your ears (and neighbors) will thank you for the much quieter noise levels of an electric mower versus a much louder gas-powered machine.
Flexible Use with Other Tools
Another benefit of electric power tools is that you can typically use the batteries across different tools from the same manufacturer. For example, if you have a Greenworks mower, its batteries can be used with their electric leaf blowers, trimmers, and over 50 different home improvement tools from the manufacturer.
That means you can keep a select number of batteries charged and ready to go and then use them with whatever tool you need that day.
Considerations
When shopping for an electric mower, keep in mind that every tool has its best use cases. Electric mowers will normally work find for the average-sized lawn in terms of how long their battery will last. In cases where your lawn is big enough that you need to switch batteries between the front and back, you might even consider that a good time to take a rest break.
But if you have an extra-large lawn, you will likely still consider a gas mower the better choice. For the time being.
We're even seeing rideable electric lawnmowers coming into the market, though they will definitely need more battery power than one you walk behind.
