ONE+ 18V 16 in. Hybrid Walk Behind Push Lawn Mower with (2) 4.0 Ah Batteries and Charger

The mower worked flawlessly but the two batteries died with just two passes left to go. I have a average size yard on a .25 acre lot in a subdivision. Not big at all. I have two other 4AH batteries from other Ryobi tools like my weed whacker/edger, blower, chain saw and hedge trimmer combo. So I was able to use them to finish the lawn. Wish the cover would accomodate a 5 or 6 AH battery. That would make it 5 stars.

Great little mower for small to medium yards. We live in the city and purchased a small 16" electric/corded mower for our small front and back yard. It worked well but dragging the cord around got tiring and I got to the point where I dreaded mowing the lawn - I spent as much time moving and avoiding the cord, and untangling/wrapping up the cord as I did mowing. Because it's compact and lightweight (40lbs) it's easy to maneuver and carry from front yard to back yard and down two flights of stairs. A full sized 20" Ryobi (60lbs) while nice, is too heavy to carry and push up hills. Batteries: I timed how long the mower and batteries would last by walking with the mower back and forth until it quit - I got 22 minutes of run time (included 4 separate start ups), plenty for my four separate plots of grass. Height Setting: The lowest setting is too low for the grass, probably around 1.5in, the lowest I can go is setting 2. So this mower can provide very short grass if desired. The Cons I experienced: The handles you pull in and hold to keep the mower on/running are very sensitive. If you loosen your grip just a millimeter or two the mower shuts off. I find myself having to restart the mower a few times during my mowing. I now wrap a long strip of velcro around the grip to keep it tight against the handle when I mow. The batteries get hot enough after mowing that they will not charge right away, they must cool down first before they will charge - I'll get the flashing orange light and the "Temperature delay" warning if I attempt to charge within 15 mins after mowing.

shipped to home on the 26th of April. Mowed the lawn that evening. As I hadn't yet charged that batteries that came with the mower, I used 2 3-yo batteries that I had on my drill and saber-saw. Light, wonderful, quiet, and amazing! whole yard accept the last 2 swaths on those batteries - and finished by plugging the cord in. Surprised? Yes. I have a lot of battery tools and appliances - and a Leaf. I know limitations, and plan accordingly. But, here's the thing, I hadn't mowed the lawn since last September (See pictures). Some things could be improved: 1. Handles can get in the way of getting the mower up against the fence, 2. Have the handle fold to trolley on 2 wheels to put away (I was able to pick up and carry, but would have been nice to trolley). 3. Safety handles are touchy - would shut down when I was not squeezing very tightly, 4. Shape electrical cord connection for fit of 3-prong extension, 5. I have built a hanger lip in basement wall - would be nice to have one that comes with and is secure with catch. My friend (a gal with a decade on my age) loved mine so much that she went out and bought as well! Have now had 3 weeks of mowing, and am still very happy!

This has got to be the best lawnmower ever!!! Two batteries to give you great power and enough time to cut most any yards. My mom has 1/3 of an acre and I can cut it in about an hour. If it's really high, and I have to move slower, and should the batteries run out of charge, I can either take a break and recharge the batteries, or plug it in with an extension cord. It's great. Not only that, but with two batteries, when I am finished with the grass, I use a battery and install it into my 22" hedge trimmer and can finish 150 feet of three feet high hedges with one 4 Amp lithium battery, and plug the other battery into the weed whacker and finish up. The lawnmower has an easy to use wheel height adjustment with one simple lever. Also, it has a fantastic collection bag also. This lawnmower is awesome. No more gas, oil, spark plugs, cleaning the air cleaner, changing the oil, maintenance, and wintertime draining the gas and using up the fuel so it doesn't get bad throughout the winter. The only maintenance you will ever need to do, is sharpen the cutting blade when it gets dull. And the only thing that you will need to cut the grass, is a charged battery. Do you know what else is awesome! If you have a cabin, a house in the country without power, or an out Apiary like me, you can set up a portable solar charging station, and never need to run for gas or oil. Also, another thing that I like, is that it is lightweight and folds up and is portable that I can take it from out apiary yard to out apiary yard, and I can put it in the trunk of my car. I LOVE IT!!!!!! It's Awesome!!!!!!!!

I enjoyed using this 16" One + 18 volt Lithium-Ion Hybrid battery powered push mower. I t is quite, light weight and does a great job, even with wet grass. The housing and under deck mower area is plastic. I was amazed at how easy it was to clean even the wet grass from the underside blade area. I always clean my mowers after each use, this really makes it easier. When cutting there was no bog down when mowing higher grass, very impressive little machine. Love the single handle height adjustment too. Batteries take about 2 hours to charge, each. Charger shuts off when charging is complete, no need worrying about over charging the batteries. I was able to mow more grass than I wanted to, had me puffing when it finally shut off. And for those of you who don't quite get done , you can hook a cord up to it and finish your yard. After clean up, just unlatch the handles and fold for easier storage.

I was very impressed with the overall performance of this mower. It came with 2 x P108 rechargeable batteries and one P118 charger. I have a relatively small back yard. About 1000 sq ft of lawn that needs to be cut. This mower with both batteries inserted (Full Charge) cut my whole lawn without the use of a power cord. My front yard is tiny in comparison. This mower has a 5 position cutting height adjustment and the mower can be set to mulch if desired. (I used the grass catcher which is very simple and super easy to use) The mower is light weight and compact with a built-in carry handle. The handle folds down on top of the mower and you can use a power cord when the batteries run dry.

the mower height selector fails, leaving the mower to cut at the lowest possible setting, ~1". there are several useful videos online show the complicated repair process, the company will not supply the part. after a few years of regular use, the shift lever assembly for the deck height fails. there is a 1/8" buckle connecting the lever to the spring assembly that has the full weight of the mower on it, it just sheers off. even if they supplied the part, Ryobi service will not, expect a fairly complicated repair process. purchased 5/29/2018 this was a wonderful small mower designed for small lawns, it works well, the batteries are adequate for my ~3000 sq ft., the premature failure due to a poorly designed part is worth pausing on your Ryobi mowers purchase.

How long have I had it? Once across the front half acre. Can it rip through a shin deep hay lot at a near run? No, but at age 70, neither can I! On batteries, it does what it is designed to do; 40 minutes of mowing of a normal, relatively smooth lawn. But because it only draws 7 amps, it also can plug into main voltage with an extension cord as light as a 16 ga. & 2 conductors with a length as much as 120 feet. That means it can mow more than you probably can, and it won't disappoint you one bit in the process. It can also teach the grandkids the joys of fresh air and the satisfaction of accomplishment. Most outstanding feature? It gets the job done with a minimum of fuss. What I like? The low amperage that doesn't make me drag a cord as heavy as the mower, and the easy height adjustment. What I dislike? The lack of a side discharge adapter that would snap in like the mulching plug. It would let me get started an hour sooner on these hot, muggy, Texas mornings.

It is perfect for in town small yard mowing once you get use to it. Grass height is all the importance to get through the yard without of running out of battery and even if you did run out of battery you can just plug in the extension cord (HYBRID).

A nice mower, needs some work on the power handles - way too touchy, shuts off the mower on a very small movement of fingers.
