POWERFUL, RELIABLE PERFORMANCE + 5-YEAR WARRANTY: The 120vRX brushless motor has the torque of a gas engine to cut through all grass types and conditions with up to 100 minutes of runtime on a single charge with two batteries installed. Dual battery ports operate either battery when two are installed. When one is completely discharged, the sensor powers the other battery to keep you going. The mower operates with only one battery installed if you need to charge the other battery while cutting.TORQUE-SENSE TECHNOLOGY: Sensors built in to the motor receive feedback while you are cutting and sense when more power is needed for thick, dense or wet grass to increase the blade speed for a premium cut. This gives you power when you need it and saves energy when you don’t to extend the runtime even longer.SELF-PROPELLED / SPEED ADJUSTABLE DRIVE: Step up to self-propelled power drive with a simple control lever on the handle to reduce effort and achieve a perfect cut every time! Adjust the speed with the touch of a lever at your fingertips. Self-propelled drive is essential for yards with hills and slopes of all degrees to maintain a consistent cut and is safer by providing more control during operation.3-in-1 DECK ADAPTS TO YOUR NEEDS: The 22” steel deck converts from rear-bagging to mulching to side discharge quickly and easily. Vortex tunnel design transfers clippings into the bag to achieve +95% capacity to extend time between emptying the bag. The hybrid bag design is easier to remove and empty.COMPLETE KIT INCLUDES 2 BATTERIES: This is a complete mower kit including (2) 120vRX high-capacity 2.5 Ah batteries, (1) 4 Amp fast charger and the 22” self-propelled mower with steel deck including everything needed to bag, mulch or side discharge while cutting.
I bought a battery-powered mower last summer when we bought our house. I'm now in the market for a gas mower.
This is what I bought. The problem is mainly that the run time is so far short of what I need for my yard; realistically I need 2-3 charges to do the whole thing, depending on how long the grass is. Unfortunately I don't know my acreage so I get that's not very helpful to you.
The other problem is power - there just isn't that much. If I let the grass go for too long (10-14 days in the growing season), I just can't do it with my mower and have to pay someone. Plus there is sometimes a bit of a mohawk down the center of what I've mowed, I think due to the dual blades.
You can cure these issues by spending tons of money; either hundreds more for a second set of batteries or even more than that for a truly-powerful electric mower, but I'm not really looking to spend that kind of money.
All that being said, battery-powered is still fine if your yard is small enough. It really is so much more pleasant than dealing with a gas mower. I'll be sad to make the switch back over.
I know you asking for a gas mower However I recently got a new mower as all my other ones I inherited over the years crapped out and I couldn't find the right parts for the life of me... And after reading about all the mowers out there 40v 60v 80v all had sub standard mowing and took multiple passes that the gas mowers would do in 1. Which lead me to the light commercial category and the 120v yard force.
In the end I went with the 120v yard force lawn mower. This mower is a beast and performs as well if not better than any 5-6hp gas mower I've owned (craftsman, Honda, and toro). The reviews I read (and hands on experience since owning it) said it was great with none of the cons the 40-80v had. Note: 80v mowers are right where they start getting better but they still struggle on thick patches.
Came with 2 batteries. I can do 3-4 Mows on a single battery charge of my 2000 sqft lawn. Takes a single pass. I bag my grass and throw it into a compost pile but from what I've heard the mulching ability is good.

There are good electric mowers you just gotta pony up and pay for the premium to get the torque needed to do the job right. Or go gas...
But with climate change and the likes and how lawn mower engines produce a lot of emissions it was worth the premium for me. Plus I'll never have to buy gas again to mow my lawn!
I returned the Ego and got a Yardforce. Dumb name but my grass is thicker and the ego didn't have enough power.
