If you have an acre to cut and you buy this and complain, it's your own fault. For sane, rational people who understand this is for relatively small yards it's a pretty solid deal.
So I guess you can just order two mowers, and then have an "emergency-backup mower"?
Is it just me, or is this a bit like the inkjet printer/ink cartridge business

Tried to google an example image, except google is trash now. All I can say is you kinda know if you have a relatively small yard or not, let's be real here. And if you do, this mower works well (pitch/slope plays as well - I've got some pretty extreme geometry and I probably burn through a good chunk of the battery dealing with that, so if your yard is mostly flat/level you have a distinct advantage).
Dunno if that helps, but I tried.

I'm looking at this, a similarly specced and priced Ryobi, and a Makita 20" that is going for $450 after coupon. I like the Makita because it comes with 4 18v batteries that can be used in other tools. That seems more practical than 40v.
But I'm wondering if I need to look another price bracket up.

This one's a 5 Ah battery.
Now the rough math is
Ah x 10 / 2 = 5 x 10 / 2 = 25 minutes~ of runtime.
This can vary up and down.
Super tall, thick grass? Less time.
Super short, perfectly flat golf grass? More time.
...
So with your current mower, about how long to push it over the entire lawn to cut it?
...
If you run out, either buy and use a spare battery. Or wait to recharge (some brands like Skil have super fast chargers).
Another great thing to keep in mind is the free rapid charger that you'll get by mail with the purchase. The included slow charger is worthless, takes like 4hrs. The rapid charger takes maybe 40min to charger the 5Ah battery. It's also soooo much quieter than my old Toro gas mower, which is very nice. I don't have to wear hearing protection anymore.
If you're on the fence go for it. Best part is since it's not a gas engine w/ the fuel stipulation you can return it to the store within 30 days.
