I have a electric power saw, best investment I ever made

[fraudsarentfriends]

Electric doesn't mulch and dies quickly if it's a self propelled mower. I am surprised that the electric mower is just as loud as the gasoline mower. Also, none of the electrics are made in America. When it comes to lawn and garden equipment, that's important to me.

The electric mowers have a smaller width bc they weak

Electrics are working there way up in power. Still, the bigger the power needs the more expensive and also some simply aren't perfected yet. We need a true gas/electric comparison system for the consumer. That's what sold fuel powered over horses way back. Why you think engines are rated in horsepower. Of course another option is to force people to buy and use products whether they work or not, ny only offering certain choices.
