I've recovered a few Ryobi 40volt batteries, when they go dead. These won't charge if they were discharged to a voltage too low. I usually have to boost the individual cells back to health. or this: https://www.essentialhomeandgarde...-problems/
I got this mower in November, a factory blemish one. The first one was doa, would not propel or the blades wouldn't spin. Dto was great with the return, but no replacement. Luckily, a sale came by and I bought another factory blemish that worked.

This thing literally has 4 safety switches. The Deadman switch, the handle needs to be flipped out and also just be extended. Then a bag/mulcher attachment must be in. Anyone one of those fail, and your mower won't start.

Looks like a good deal, but be sure to read the Home Depot 1 star reviews. It looks like there are quite a few lemons.

I took a gamble but the HD reviews do scare me . I only need it for trimming where the rider can't reach though so hoping it serves its purpose

Im definitely taking a gamble too, been looking at purchasing one, even bought one at retail (50$) saving and ended up returning it cuz 380$+ was just too much for me at the time. This seemed like the cheapest ive ever seen it on SD

In for 1. Keep seeing these battery lawn mowers come up and was in analyis paralaysis but finally pulled the trigger. Mulching is important to me and reviews on this for mulching are good. 4.7 stars on the Ryboi site and 4.2 stars on Amazon. Looking at is a low cost entry to replace my loud leaky gas mower for my small yard. Thanks OP.

Just keep in mind.... Refurbished doesn't qualify for mower rebates like the $150-250 offered by the Southern California aqmd.

Had this mower. The pins holding the handles upright never stayed in and if they come out the mower shuts off. Drove me crazy and I returned after a couple uses.

My two year old 40v Ryobi is a literal death trap. I switched to EGO

Battery is 6Ah, which is worth mentioning. I have a non-self-propelled (humblebrag!) and the 6Ah is enough to do my front yard at 50' x 120' about twice over. Figure once with propulsion. Paid $250.

This is a pretty decent deal but only if you need propulsion. My 11yo son can usually manage our push mower on flat ground just fine, but elderly or mobility impaired folks might want propulsion. RWD, though, can be hard to turn at the end of each swath.

man i hate electric mowers. they tend to be too under powered if you let your grass grow too long they make your batteries super hot reducing their life and all the safety switches are a pain. If you live in the Los Angeles area there are guys who buy pallets of returns from HD, i bought a toro recycler mower self propelled for $110. it was brand new, never used, just had light scratches on some spots due to handling and stacking on pallet. he even had honda mowers new in the $225 range, way better deal than these electric mowers.
