Deal Details
On clearance in select stores for $270. Just dropped today, was $315 for the past 3 weeks. it will probably drop again in 3 weeks but I got one since the inventory was getting low. It was hard to find in the store because they were moving the mowers to the top of the shelves in the lawn and garden.

Ryobi's 40 volt 21 inch mower is a lightweight cordless option that comes with a battery, a three year battery warranty, and even a built in light for late night mowing. The deal looks especially attractive at the clearance price, and the compact weight should make it easy to handle. The main concern is battery reliability and runtime, with repeated reports of overheating, premature failure, and short coverage on a charge. It seems best suited to smaller yards if the battery holds up.

Common Questions (6)

  • The 40V batteries can be a weak point: some users report overheating faults, premature failure after 1-3 seasons, and batteries that brick or stop charging. Others report years of trouble-free use, especially when batteries are stored indoors and not left at 100% in hot conditions.

  • Yes, this deal includes the battery, and the battery warranty is 3 years. That matters because replacement 40V batteries can cost about $150-$200, so the included battery adds a lot of value to the mower price.

  • At $270, it is considered a strong deal because it includes the battery, and one buyer even found it for $285 with an extra $15 off using a Home Depot credit card coupon. Stock appears limited in some stores.

  • The mower is described as very lightweight, and it has a built-in light for late-night mowing. That makes it easier to push and more practical for mowing after dark.

  • Yes, the 40V system can trigger an overheat fault, and a mower may struggle if it gets bogged down in tall grass. A temporary reset by opening the battery and jumping two points on the circuit board is mentioned, but the fix is not permanent.

  • One report says it only covered about a quarter of a yard on a single charge on a property under 1 acre, and the battery then spent 30+ minutes in testing mode instead of charging. It may need two batteries minimum for larger lawns.

***ATTENTION ***
Bought this and will be returning it.
Its woefully under powered. I have less than an acre kot and I have only been able to mow roughly a quarter of the yard on one charge. After putting the battery on the charger it went on testing mode for at least a half hour, which means its not charging.

This mower needs to come with two batteries minimum.

Horrible experience. I thought maybe it just needed to get through one charge cycle but no its still horrible on the second charge

No problems with ryobi 40v system so far unlike others in here are saying. This is a great deal for a mower esp since it comes with the battery.
Same. People don't take care of their stuff then cry "this brand is turribul"
