Dam if I had not just bought a Sunjoe mower! I have the 18V+ batteries too. Ryobi is better designed than Sunjoe - better handle system and wheels. Sure, it's only 13in blade, but for small yards it's great and easy to push. My Sunjoe is 48V 2 batts and bigger, but I don't think it would matter for my small yard, just a few more passes.

$10 shipping and tax brings it to $121 for me. On the fence. Have the batteries but also have a working mower.

Yep, that's what is shown in this picture [directtoolsoutlet.com] on the site.

Great price BUT I purchased this new from HD and returned within 20 minutes of trying to use. No power, would not cut dry PRECUT 2" grass without motor binding down to a complete stop. Tried 4 different charged batteries and nothing. Motor would get up to speed but any healthy grass would slow the blade to a stop due to the complete lack of torque. Please note I do not have unrealistic expectations for battery powered or corded lawn tools, I understand their place and abilities. Love my Ryobi 18v weed eater and replaced this with a 16" corded Ryobi push mower.

You know the commercial where the back yard is so small that the kid swinging is hitting the fence on both sides? I feel like that's the type of yard this mower is for.

I had the same issue with a 40v sun joe mower. Had to return it and got a kobalt mower from lowes. Much better performance. This seems like a great deal, especially with battery included, but if the motor bogs down on taller, thicker grass, it's probably best to pass on this deal.

I've had one for a few years. Decent for doing just my smaller front yard or around smaller stuff before I use the rider. Never had an issue with it bogging down on longer grass as stated in other comments. It'll use one or two batteries. I use two 4ah batteries and it'll go for about 30-40 min.

Anyone know this compares power-wise to either the 16" model or to the 13" corded model? I just missed the deal on the 16" model a month ago. My 16" Ryobi corded mower, which has served me quite well for the past 7 years or so, just died. Haven't found the 16" corded mower in stock around me, but the 13" corded one is just $100, I think.
