The perfect ladies mower!

published

I love my little ryobi mower. Being a single lady living on a 470m2 flat block this mower does the job perfectly.
It runs for about 40mins when my kikuyu grass isn't crazy long and cuts shorter grass with ease. It does struggle when my grass is very long which I think is pretty normal. This is easy to manoeuvre seeing as it's not overly big and heavy. It folds down nicely for storage also.
Overall would purchase again.

Electric motor is unprotected and can get jammed with straw.

published

I was reasonably happy with this mower with moderate use for over a year, although it does clog quickly with even slightly damp grass. Unfortunately though, it can suck clippings into the motor housing and jam the electric motor. When this happened and I unscrewed the motor housing, I was shocked to find it nearly full of old dried grass clippings (straw). There is zero shielding for the electric motor and the straw and dirt is able to work its way inside the motor and jam it up.

A bit gutless, but still adequate for my small lawn.

published

At least it has a steel blade, unlike Ozito! VERY light and easy to manoeuvre.
Not much guts, but the finished job looks OK. Not great but is adequate so far.

Worst battery powered on the market

published

Worst mower battery on the market.
Took over 160 minutes charging for 30 minutes mowing... Could not believe it.
Worst performance on the market
Ryobi customer service, after numerous emails proved totally unhelpful

Gutsy

published

I had this mower 6 months. The height adjuster seems to be for display only but if the grass is kept short there's no need for it. Never used the catcher, the mulcher is installed and works perfectly. After use it is easy to upend and scrape away the tacky stuff from around the blades and the mulcher. Ive managed to cut patches of thick buffalo by pulling the mower backwards.The cord is a trick to manipulate and needs constant awareness. Today I flicked the cord and somehow managed to lift the mower enough for the cord to flick underneath instantly cutting it in half. There was no damage to the blades or the mower, the electricity didn't blow. I was up and running a few minutes later with a new cord. Love this little machine.

Perfect for small areas

published

Easy to put together, easy to use. Works best on even ground. Mentions a mulching plug but doesn't say it is already installed in the rear, so there's no need for the catcher. Mulching plug works great although it needed the crusted dirt chipped off after use. Cable clips not in the bag but already installed on handle. Says it has height adjustment with the lever at front wheel but I've not been able to change it, although the cutting height is fine the way it is as long as the grass is always maintained. Comes with 4 year warranty. Very happy with this little electric mower.

Good mower for small yards

published

Bought it a few days ago mowed the lawn great. I had 2 other brand's AC mowers both lasted years. These AC electric mains powered units are simple, easy to use, powerful and quiet.
The ryobi was more expensive then my older mower but glad i got it the blade is bigger with a higher power rated motor, has better wheels and lever height adjustment, ergonomic ambidextrous control, the grass catcher is more secure, the plastic mouldings are really well designed, it has a power cord hook built into the trigger, the handle is easy detached for storage. The ryobi is more refined in every way than the previous AC powered mowers i have used.
Does the job well.
