Does the job well
I have had this a few months now, and used every 2 weeks. It works very well and I am pleasantly surprised. I have 3 small lawns around the house and If the grass is not too long I can do it on one 5ah battery. If its longer then it takes two (5 and a 2.0ah). I have a few batteries for my Ryobi tools so its never a problem having a charged up spare. Happy not to have to go through all the hassle of a petrol mower anymore and it cuts just as good IMHO.
Pros: Lightweight, can use the battery in other tools. Cuts well and close to the edge. Grass collector is a good size.
Cons: None I can think off
Glad I bought a cordless one over an ICE mower.
Should have done it years ago
I held off going cordless way too long but am now reaping the benefits.
Halved the time taken, less FAF so easy to use.
Great produc
Great lawn mower although grass have never collected in the hopper basket ever so not required. Battery last use in both lawn mower and strimmer. All in all a great produc
Very ligh
It’s easily assembled and very light and easy to use. Was disappointed in the life of the battery and we don’t have a huge lawn. Have bought a second battery just in case ..
Fab
Bought for my partner as he is ryobi obsessed and they are both great, so easy to use and manoeuvre and do a fab job of the garden! Both really lightweight too! Well worth it.
Life changing
Soo much better than the flymo I had, battery lasted both front and back gardens even though they are small both were well over due a cut.
You can adjust cut depth, so I went over at 5 and than 1, it collected all the grass so I didn’t have to faff with a rack.
Being cordless was a game changer. I also bought the cordless hedge trimmer, and together I managed to do both gardens in an hour, saved lots of time.
Both lawn mower and strimmer really light also.
Strimmer great quality too, works well and can spin 180 degrees.
Good basic cordless mowe
Light weight and easy to manoeuvre.
Cutting height adjustment system very basic, not the easiest to use , but does work with some perseverance.
I am a Ryobi tool fan and have a number of them including Drills, Saws, Jet wash etc. I wanted a lightweight mower which was easy to move around my average size garden and keep my lawn tidy with a weekly cut during the warmer months. I found it to be an excellent addition to my tool collection does exactly what i need it to do and i already had several batteries and a charger making the mower great value for money. I also purchased the cordless strimmer which is also very good and using both has made cutting the grass a pleasurable experience and no cords to trip over and risk cutting through. The only improvements would be to be able to remove the handle completely to be able to store easier and the cable to the switch on the inside of the frame to give it better protection. I cable tied it as a quick fix. To summarise i would recommend this for the average size garden and at the price point is good value if you own the charger and batteries. If you are new to Ryobi invest in a package deal with a larger capacity battery which then gives you greater flexibility to power additional tools you will want to purchase as you will get hooked on the range on offer.

Light and easy
After an old heavy petrol mower this is a pleasure to use, light weight and easy to use. Advertised mowing area I think is on the high side as may not take into account corners and awkward bits but a second non branded battery takes away any concern about not completing both mowing and strimming in one go
Light and easy to use!
So far have only used a couple of times but so far very impressed. Very light and easy to maneuver around. Not as easy to store away as I was hoping but overall very happy. The battery it comes with seems to manage ok, ran out after about 20 mins with long grass but managed fine once the hard work was done. Would recommend upgrading battery if you have a large lawn. The strimmer is also really good. Light weight and easy to use, battery lasts a lot long whilst using strimme
Great for a small garde
This mower is easy to use and lightweight compared to my old corded mower. You don’t have to worry about cables when mowing. Would most likely not be quite do suitable for larger gardens as the battery would not last long enough. All in all very pleased with it.
Fantastic product and feels Solid.
Outstanding product.Had flymo cordless, glad could return it back.Make sure you get the bigger battery 5.0 ah for midsized garden.Bigger radius bade could benefit for faster cutting.This one Works for me so not fussed.
Brilliant battery mowe
We bought this for the allotment as it was battery operated and we were struggling with the hand pushed mower . We read the reviews and strimmed any longer grass first . We also purchased 2 extra batteries and it cut the whole plot sweet as a nut . Added bonus it cuts right to the edge the full width of the mower .
Very pleased with this and it has a free strimmer with it which is useful .
Great produc
Great product was happy it came with battery and charger but if buying this product I would recommend buying an extra battery as charge doesn’t last long
Lightweigh
Able to cut the whole area on one charge and still have a bit left to use the same battery for there Strummer. But run out if the grass was left to grow longer when away. Area is about 112 square metres
Fiddly height mechanism
Overall the mower and strimmer are very good and give a good cut. One charge of the 4 .0 Ah battery lasted long enough to cut a trim my 2 medium sized lawns with charge left over. The reason for 4 stars is I find the cut height mechanism fiddly and the lever does not feel very robust and feels as though it might break when trying to adjust the height.
Rapport qualité prix bo
Bon pour le prix juste il faut prvoir des batteries car une batterie de 5AH ne dure pas longtemps .
Best mower I’ve ever owned.
Super easy to assemble, and very lightweight to use. Almost like hoovering the grass!
I have an 80ft by 20ft garden, which the battery will just do before dying.
Charging battery takes about 2-3 hours from flat to full.
Great design, easy to use, absolutely love it.
Supe
Excellent starter pack. Lawnmower is easy to use and cute nice and evenly. Strimmer is great but it eats the wire quick so buy a few spools. Overall a great looking great functioning bit of ki
Fantastic mower and strimme
I was a bit dubious about buying this mower with some of the negative reviews, but after a lot of research the mower suited my needs best. I found it very easy to assemble and loved the sleek design. My grass was probably about 4 or 5 inches long and I was in two minds to use my old electric mower that I am replacing and thought well it would be a great test for the mower as the grass was a bit wet and quite long.
All I can say is what a fantastic bit of kit !!!! So happy with the results. I set the depth to 1 which is the shortest setting the mower struggled a little bit, but it was more from the grass being wet than a power issue. I changed the setting to 2 and it made mince meat out of the grass., back to 1 for a lovely finish.
The mower is very easy to use and lightweight but don’t let that put you off.
I used most of the battery but there was more than enough left in it to use the strimmer. Again a great bit of kit. I would say that the mower and the strimmer have done a better job of cutting the grass than my old electrical ones. I have only used once but I am very happy with the results. I would highly recommend.

Great. Would recommend
Very lightweight, easy to move or lift if you need to.
Easy to assemble.
I just forgot to take the bit out to allow the grass to collect. For a lightweight mower it performs very well.
These are simply fantastic!
For such a small and light machine, this thing is brill! Thoroughly recommend both the strimmer and mower – ideal for small gardens.
Small-ish lawn? This will probably be just fine.
In a nutshell: the mower might look and feel a bit like a Fisher Price ‘my first lawnmower’ but if your lawns aren’t massive and you don’t let them get long enough for the army to borrow them for training snipers in specialist camouflage techniques, it’ll almost certainly be good enough to do the job.
It struggles with long, damp grass, but I guess that’s not an ideal test for any mower. I love that I can do an entire lawn one-handed and a 4Ah battery lasts long enough to cut two 25’x40′ lawns with two bars left on the battery capacity indicator. The (S)trimmer works exactly as it should and flings small sticks and bits of gravel at my ankles just like my old mains-powered one did.
I’m not normally a ‘cheap and cheerful’ buyer of tools, but this time; it worked out fine 🙂

Perfect for small to medium lawns
So light and manoeuvrable. Bought to replace my petrol mower it’s an absolute must for small medium lawns (unless you have more batteries available). I have access to old batteries so didn’t need to buy new and even using my absolutely battered ones I can mow both front and back lawn which is about 15 minutes.
Very happy with my choice
Ordered on Wednesday afternoon, delivered on Thursday using free standard delivery option.
A replacement for a 43cm German corded mower, that literally went into meltdown on Wednesday. With the motor housing taking on the consistency of warm caramel topping! A quick browse showed a same brand replacement as two to three times the cost of this slightly smaller, but cordless Ryobi.
My lawn is about 150 square metres, so theoretically within the capability of a 33cm mower. And I figured that saving the time (and energy), of not having to wrestle with cable, extension lead and safety overload cutout, would allow me to finish the task within the time of the standard battery’s 4amp/hour capacity.
Some other reviews suggested that I was being overly optimistic. However, after an initial charge of just over 2 hours, I have just cut the still slightly damp and a little overgrown lawn in around 15 minutes, with the mulching plug in place, on the second highest setting; and still had about a quarter of the battery capacity remaining. After another one or two cuts, I expect to be able to take advantage of the 25mm shortest setting and the grass collection bag.
The light weight is relatively easy to manoeuvre and cordless cutting is a revelation. My only criticism would be the design of the supposedly folding handle which is suggested to be removed for storage, but as the smug owner of two sheds this isn’t really an issue for me.
Over all I’m very pleased with my choice and thus far very happy to recommend this mower.

Battery is good for one lawn only, but lightweight and cuts well
Easy to put together with the pictures. But was confused by the “red key ” as the pics didn’t really show where it went. But to be honest, keep looking you’ll find it lol
It cuts nicely. But does seem to clog with the grass cutting basket on the back. Can’t figure out why.
It’s light enough to pick up and carry through the house. Which is a massive bonus. My only complaint is the battery doesn’t last long enough.
My lawns aren’t that big. But the battery will only last long enough to do one at a time. And it’s a long charge time
Other than that, great mowe

Fantastic produc
So after reading all the poor reviews of the Ryobi One+ Mower family I was certainly apprehensive on ordering one on Prime Day.
Well what can I say I’m gutted I didn’t order one a lot lot sooner, it was the pack with the 4.0Ah battery and strimmer (I already owned a strimmer so this will be passed on) and all my fears were waylaid immediately, my lawn is far from smooth but it glided over effortlessly and the cut and pick up is fantastic, with the 4.0Ah battery (I already owned one as well so now have 2) I managed to do all my smallish front lawn and 5/6ths of my largish rear lawn before having to put my spare battery in to finish the job (2nd battery only used 1 bar of power).
I cannot recommend this enough as it means it now takes 25 minutes to mow both lawns where it used to take me over an hour with a corded Flymo, in fact my neighbour saw it and how happy I was with it and ordered himself the same pack.

Bargain set -very happy
Bargain . Lightweight mower strimmer battery And charger . Work really well . A great package deal . Very pleased . We only have a small garden so didn’t want a big mower . Cuts brilliantly .
Really ligh
This mower is very light and easy to push. Only used it once, but works well. Lawn looks great. It was easy to put together, battery easy to charge
A great piece of ki
Nice and light and easy to manoeuvre, but if you have more than pocket handkerchief sized garden get yourself a spare rechargeable battery or two or you will be moving lawns over several days.
Lightweight and manoeuvarble
I already have other Ryobi tools which use the 18v interchangeable batteries so it made sense to try the lawnmower when a replacement became necessary. So far so good. Arrived on time, easy to assemble and cuts the lawn just fine.
The blade width is not as wide as my previous machine but as it is not a big lawn it still suits my purpose.
Overall very happy with the purchase.
A very practical easy to handle cordless mower.
An awesome, very easy to operate mower that cut the grass, even at higher growth, without showing any signs of straining. The 5 different height settings ensured that you need not overwork the mower by having to make shorter cutting as is the case for some makes of machine. A great machine for a small to medium sized lawn.
Good but the battery drains quickly.
Really good product, much better cut that some of the Flymo products I’ve had in the past.
Only one annoyance is I can only cut either the front or back garden in one charge, my lawn is probably a bit above average so If you have a decent sized garden you are better off with a petrol mower or lots of batteries.
Cut the grass!
Great piece of kit, but height adjustment a bit tricky.
Light, easy & cuts well
I’ve used the mower and strimmer a few times now and have to say I’m very impressed. After scouring the web to find the best for the money battery mower I’m confident I count have don’t better than this bundle.
I bought the Mower and strimmer that also came with a 4Ah battery and charger.
Out of the box the mower and strimmer were easy to assemble. The battery clips into both tools and releases very easily.
The mower is very light which makes it really easy to pick up and move around. I was concerned the mower would be too light as one other reviewer warned about, but honestly it’s not a problem at all. It has five cutting heights and has the option to collect or mulch the clippings. Battery life with the 4Ah is just about enough for what I need it for. I can easily cut around 100m and then strim the edges before running out of power.
The strimmer has a nice balance to it and it easy to use. The handle positions work well and the spool up time is very short.
Noise wise, both the mower and strimmer were quieter than expected, especially the mower.
Only gripes: height adjustment on the mower is a bit fiddly, and the sprung lid on the back that sits on the grass bin is annoying as you can’t just leave it open for cleaning.

Ready to go.
Fabulous little mower, always ready to go, cuts really close to edges which saves lots of strimming etc. My fault, but should have purchased a bigger one as I have an enormous lawn. Mower 1st class & great for average sized gardens
Decent mowe
It’s not a bad wee mower, I wouldn’t call it amazing and it is quite small at 33cm but it does cut well if you sharpen the blade. It is very lightweight which was the main selling point for me as my lawn is quite steep been using it for a few months and can’t really fault it, ideal for a small lawn. I have the ryobi strimmer aswell and one 5aH battery is enough to mow and strim the edges.
Good mower, lightweight but quite flimsy
Lightweight but flimsy and will need to be careful when storing i
After reading most of the reviews some complaining that it wouldn’t cut as they had left the mulching plug in as they had neglected to read the instructions! You really need the minimum of a 5 Ah battery to do this mower justice. it’s a very lightweight machine and this entry level model is for small postage stamp lawns that take 5 or 6 paces to walk across. If your patch is larger then go for the next model up. This is a cheap mower but only if you have bought in to the Ryobi platform as a 5 Ah battery is now approaching 80 and of course you need a charger as well. Compared to my ageing Flymo this cuts very well but if you leave the grass to get too long, better to cut in to stages so as not to stress out the motor. It will then eat batteries even quicker. All in all a suitable machine for my needs.

Brillia
I borrowed my friends WORX 40v cordless lawnmower, some weeks ago. So seeing this at 18v I didn’t think it would be any good. But after talking to a person who was selling one, I decided to take plung and buy one.
I have most of the 18v+ tools, so it made sense. Although I would of prefered a 36v, were you put 2x18v batteries in.
My grass was at 4″ high. But after a couple of passes it was back down to the 1 setting.
Good kit and I’d recommend. 5*
Just what we wanted.
It’s relatively quieter than most electric mowers and the grass collection is excellent. Only used it on a pretty flat lawn but happy so far. Only cut down to an inch(ish) but good enough for us. Not if you want a bowling green.
Fantastic lightweight lawnmower!
Really easy to assemble, good selection of cutting heights so I could do a first high cut on quite long grass and then really quick lower cut to get a really smart finish. Very light and easy to maneuver, other comments saybits plastic-y but I think it’s just lightweight and very easy to use. Highly recommend!
Good machine
Works well, height adjustment a bit flimsy I have set to height and do not intend to change.
Very ligh
Very light and easy to move around, we have a fairly large garden, mostly lawn, that has an area that is full of small fruit trees and plants.
Our petrol mower is just to big and heavy for this area so we decided to get the battery Ryobi mower, what a great bit of kit.
Works brilliantly and so easy to manoeuvre around the trees and small areas, makes mowing that area of the garden so much easier and quicker.
We have a couple of batteries, but so far we have done the whole area on one battery only so no issues.
Batteries do get very hot when discharged but again no issues so far, very pleased with it.

Pro’s – light, compact, reasonably priced, battery powered so very convenient – no cords or petrol needed, surprisingly powerful, easy to assemble, not very loud, gave an even cut.
Con’s – hard to tell when the grass bag is full, grass bag doesnt seem to collect the grass very well BUT this was due to a blockage from when it overfilled i think so may have been my fault. Other than that, nothing.
Only used it the once and it’s done a great job. Managed to do my lawn using 1 and a half 4mha batteries worth. My lawn isn’t massive (roughly 5M x 10m) but a 135 battery powered lawnmower isnt designed for massive lawns at the end of the day. It was pretty overgrown though so it had to work harder which used more power. I think with regular cuts before it gets too long i could easily do it with one battery. I have several ryobi tools now and none of them have let me down. Would recommend.

Lightweight, easy to use but no rolle
Very light and easy to use being ideal for my smallish lawn ( 35 x 12 feet). So far used only about 1 bar of 5mh battery on each cut but I could see longer grass etc using more. You can only adjust cutting height at front so the 5 levels arnt the greatest difference. I also realised theres no roller which is a shame. Compared to my previous corderd Flymo the biggest plus is cleary lack of trailling lead however as mentioned the lack of more sensitive cut height and roller is a negative.

Lightweight and easy to use. Perfect for a small law
Great little mower for what we needed to cut our new small lawn. We have owned many different mowers in the past and was concerned that this would be too lightweight. It is indeed light and feels a little flimsy at first, but it is very easy to use and cuts the lawn perfectly. Good for awkward spaces and cuts close to the edge. On a large lawn and over rough terrain it might struggle. Only downside is the plastic leaver to raise and lower the cutting height feels quite weak.
Impressed
Have used this twice now and wouldn’t go back. Moderate lawn size but does job well. Always used petrol mowers. Moved house and had cable electric with house. Quite annoying so went for it. Easy to assemble and use. Second time cut lawn and strimmed using Ryobi one strimmer. All on one 5ah battery. Cuts have never been more than one grass box but like to keep on top of it. Highly recommend.
Picked small version for small lawn.
Great for the small lawn I have, using my own ryobi 5ah battery it cut the grass perectly
Very easy to biuld no prolems, ensuring
the two parts with the cable clap holes are on the same side.
Height adjustment works OK just a little stiff initially.
Overall very satisfied with the mower for the task I wanted it for.
Bagger or Mulche
I purchased this for small lawns up steps or hard to reach , however it’s become my goto for any small lawn , great piece of kit that soon became essential part of the team 🙂
Great build and intuitive to use Wether bagging or mulching it doesn’t Flinch
Light and easy
This is a very light easy to use mower. Get a larger battery for it to make it work longer. I have a lawn about 200ft square. One charge will do it twice on a 5amp battery. If you have a larger lawn you will start to struggle. The grass collection works well and for my little bit will not need emptying until i am finished. Good little buy, no leads really quick and easy to use.
Pleasantly surprised,went from a petrol mower straight to this!!And what a relief,no back pain,so easy to use,cuts well etc.
Had a laugh when i finished cutting the grass when i walked past my misses saying i’m just taking my mower back to the shed,carrying it with the centre handle lol.
I love it so far.Little word of warning,i have several Ryobi 18v one+ tools and they all share the same battery,however,as soon as i got this out the box i charged the battery,then i thought hey i’ll just stick in the 18v battery from my angle grinder in the meantime to test the mower,seemed ok for a while but mower died,battery was red hot!!
Didn’t realise the 18v battery with this mower is more powerful than my other battery for my drills etc,doh!!Lesson learned,however i know i can use this more powerful battery in my drills etc too!!A win,win.

Also allgemein Betrachtet ist der Mher echt gut. Was mir persnlich negativ aufgefallen ist. Ist zb die sehr geringe Sog Wirkung unter dem Mher. Gras das ber die Mhkante hngt oder vorher mit Freischneider oder Trimmer abgeschnitten wurde wird nicht angehoben. Bltter die im Rasen liegen schafft er auch nicht aufzunehmen. Das Messer war Werkseitig fast stumpf und ich habe es vor dem ersten Benutzen erst mal geschrft. Das Schnittbild ist ok. Jedoch werden umgeknickte Grashalme nicht abgeschnitten da die von mir angesprochene Sogwirkung unter dem Mher zu gering ist. Somit ist das Schnittbild manchmal etwas ungleich. Werde ihn aber aufgrund seiner Schmalen Schnittbreite behalten.
Superb mowe
Excellent mower so much easier than corded mowers. The selection of cutting levels is superb and cuts grass beautifully. The battery gives plenty of power to mow both back and front lawns. Very pleased with purchase
Maman solo, c’est exactement la tondeuse qu’il me fallait pour mon bout de jardin. Lgre, petite taille, facile manipuler, pas de fil lectrique qui traine partout…
J’utilise la mme batterie que mon coupe bordure ryobi (voltage minimum) car a me suffit pour la taille de mon jardin (20min d’utilisation) sinon il faudrait les modles de batteries au dessus.
Je recommande !
Great little Mower for small lawns
I bought this mower after investing in one of their Drill/Impact/Circular Saw packages and liking the quality of the product and the handyness of the batteries being interchangable.
I unpacked the mower and built it in 5/10 mins. Very easy and light.
Used it for 1st cut on new lawn, highest setting, grass about 4″ and it cut no issues at all, went over again with mid height setting and still coped well, no issues. Its very light to the extent I could use it with 1 arm once safety start button is pressed (requires 2 hands). Very impressed with how close it got to the wall of the house.

Good machine could have a better battery
Battery is a bit underpowered, needs a higher spec battery
V good mower, upgrade to the 5.0 Amp battery for full potential.
Would of had 5stars if supplied with 5.0Amp battery. The 4.0Amp soon runs out. Bought the 5.0Amp and big difference in power and longevity.
Worth buying.
Very ligh
Just used for the first time. Very impressed. Light and easily manoeuvred. Only got a smallish lawn but battery only when down about a quarter.
Terrific produc
Love it! Much more powerful than I thought, so much more convenient.
Took me a while to find the secret plastic cover and remove it to make the grass collecting bag work
Great Ryobi Product, although a little loud than other electric mowers
Absolutely fantastic product from Ryobi as usual. Feels like a typical strong Ryobi build.
The only downside I can think and this is nitpicking, is when on it is quite loud. It sounds like something from Robot Wars starting up the spinning weapon!
super et conforme à mes attentes
je continue rajouter des produits one + de chez ryobi ma collection, et cette tondeuse destine une coupe fine dans le jardin est juste idale. facile utiliser, lgre, batterie commune aux autres outils ryobi de la gamme, qualit de coupe impeccable. attention, ce n’est pas pour faire ni du dbroussaillage, ni faire une coupe avec de l’herbe trop haute et dense. je la rserve pour la finition de la pelouse aprs une premire coupe unique au printemps avecune tondeuse thermique. nickel pour moi.
Great value for money
Really light, I can lift it using the handle on the body with one hand. It takes a while to get used to it being so light. Pays to have spare batteries charging incase you have long grass as the batteries don’t last so long with long grass, easy to clean and store away, grass box holds plenty, but it does clog a bit if grass is too damp
Very light, manouverable, effective and dead easy to use.
Overall very happy. Did exactly what I needed and performed better than expected. Purchased to tackle a tricky mound in the garden which was hard with the mowers I aleady have. Wanted something light and manouverable so went for the smaller and hence also cheaper model, and it is working so well I am using in preference to my larger petrol mower and mains Bosch model. Very easy to et out and use, very light.
Our lawn is probably about 20 square meters. The battery is only about 1/2 used doing that. The “tricky” part with the instructions is getting the right correct pole on the right side of the mower…but if I’d looked at the instructions, I’d have done that right. Also take the “mulch” thing out if you want the bag to fill up. (Again with the looking at instructions…phfft).
Anyway. Happy. Would buy again assuming it lasts a few years.
Da ich bisher die 36 Volt Variante mit der groen Schnittbreite nutzte, kann ich Beide gut vergleichen. Der Kleine hat bei feuchtem Gras nicht so die Kraft, klar nur 18 Volt Akku. Dabei verstopft er auch schneller, da die Austrittsffnung in den Grasfangkorb kleiner ist. Dafr ist er fr kleinere Grasflchen bei trockenem Gras ideal und er lt sich viel besser tragen, deutlich leichter. Allerdings ist die ganze Konstruktion auch nicht so robust. Man sollte nicht mit Gewalt beim Hngenbleiben weiter schieben.
Yes it works
Cuts lawn nicely, light weight and easy to use. Only down side is it doesn’t pack away very small.
This is a mower for small gardens: it is not a heavy-duty one for intensive or difficult cutting. But it is excellent at what it is designed for: cutting small gardens with minimal effort. It is extremely light & easy to use: it may not be as efficient as a mains or petrol mower, but the ease of use of a cordless mower more than makes up for it. Just don’t expect it to be as efficient.
The 2.5ah battery only lasts for about 75 sq m: for grass larger than about 50 sq m you really need the 5.0ah battery, especially if the grass is longer than usual.
When assembling, be careful: it is easy to assemble the arms the wrong way round.

facile a monter leger à utilise
la tondeuse est lgre et maniable,20 minutes avec une batterie 5ah est le maximum,
pour l’extension de garantie c’est plus une prise de vos coordonnes qu’une anne de plus de garantie impossible finaliser; cherch l’inscription qui est en vert sur l’ tiquette rien est vert,
pour la fabrication du plastique du plastique pas de l’ABS,
que les roues avant sont rglable.
De plus demande d’un emballage neutre pour la livraison ce qui n’a pas t fait.
Cables are more faff than you think!
It was not until I had a battery powered lawnmower that I realised what I faff safety avoiding the cable and extension lead was.
Easy to assemble. Not that the mulching attachment comes in position and must be removed if you want to use the bag. Very manourverable and speedy. Lightweight and easy to carry from front lawn to rear lawn. Produces nice even cut.
Note that this is the body only version, intended for those who already own Ryobi One+ batteries and charger. The Ryobi One+ system is very versatile, once you own one product it is very easy to suddenly own several.
Ho un giardino di 250m2 ed comodissimo perch molto molto leggero e maneggevole. Forse avrei dovuto prendere quello pi largo per la sua leggerezza permette di essere utilizzato super comodamente. Unica pecca che la batteria non sufficiente per completare il taglio in un unico momento. La batteria che ho preso 18v-one 4.0 ah Lithium. Per il caricabatterie top di gamma ricarica molto in fretta quindi giudizio complessivo ottimo.
Great cordless mowe
Surprised how good the battery life is. Takes a few seconds to get up to speed but cuts better than my old 240v flymo. Makes it so much easier now i don’t have to trail a lead behind the mower. It is also quieter than the 240v version – and much quieter than a petrol mower. Height adjustment was a bit fiddly at first but once you get the hang of it, works well – one lever does it all at once.
I got this from the warehouse, it was missing a bolt but Amazon were good, gave me a fiver back to replace it. I already have 2 batteries from a drill, so didn’t need to get any, but you will if you don’t have some already.
I previously borrowed a cordless battery lawnmower from my folks, and it was pants! This is a million times better, does the job on our lawns fine, tested it doing the front garden which isn’t that small really and it used 1 bar on the battery.
It’s not as powerful as a plug in lawnmower of course, but if you keep on top of mowing you shouldn’t need that, and having something as convenient as this helps – no more massive extension leads etc, it’s also very very lightweight.
As a few people have mentioned (only noticed after), it’s like the grass isn’t collected, but that’s because it’s blocked when it arrives for some reason and you just need to remove the black bit at the back, no tools needed!

I am very pleased with this lawn mower. It’s so light I am amazed. I am a 69 yr old female and I wanted a light lawn mower as I have to take it up four steps, mow the grass then take it up nine very small steps in a rockery to cut the top lawn which has banks. Well I can carry it up and down with the battery in a and a full grass box. It cuts the grass nicely when wet. The reason I haven’t given it 5 stars is because I cannot shift the lever for changing the cutting height, it is really stuff. It doesn’t matter that much to me as I cut the grass on the highest setting 5 all through the yea

Bought this whilst on lightning deal for 99.99 and love it! Only have a small garden and my 1.3ah battery is just enough to do a complete cut any bigger and a bigger battery would definately be needed, expect this will be the case after the garden has been neglected during, winter! Really good size grass box and works well

I have quite alargelawn area andthis mower really was worth buying cuts well and picks up all the cuttings as long as the grass is not to wet. had to charge the battery twice to finish all the grass but very pleased with the mowe
Ok for the price
Have not used it much so jury is still out. However if it doe not die in the next year or so – I guess ok.
This is for the small garden, or you have lots of batteries.
Well. On the whole I’m very, very impressed with this amazingly light little mower, which runs on the same battery system as a wide range of other tools (both indoor and outdoor). The mower is supplied without battery and charger – and these do add a good chunk to the cost – but we already owned several batteries and the fast charger for this series, so didn’t need to buy anything new/extra in order to run this. The only assembly needed for this relates to attaching the three pieces of the handle, which is pretty straightforward. Although the diagrammatic instructions show fitting it, this came with the mulching plug pre-installed (needs to be removed before the grass collection bag can be used). The grass collection bag has a cloth base, so is collapsible for storage, whilst the handle of the mower can be folded by simply unscrewing the two large side screws. For storage purposes, this is great, taking a comparatively small amount of space whilst the grass collection bag is reasonably generous.
This works well. It is unbelievably light compared to a petrol mower. More like pushing a lightweight stroller or a child’s toy than a lawnmower (although there is a bit of vibration through the arms). My Dad at 72 hasn’t used a mower on anything other than self-drive settings in years, but he loved this push mower: it’s so light that pushing this is less effort than steering an SD petrol mower. No fumes. No need to faff about with engine oil. Comparatively, this is really quiet in use.
We’ve only used this with 5.0ah batteries. When well-maintained, a fully charged battery is easily capable of coping with a couple of good sized lawns (over 2000′ squared/ a good couple of hundred meters). If grass has started to get a bit out of hand, this still cuts well, but with the 5.0Ah battery you can hear it placing strain on the power supply and the battery drains significantly faster. The small size and light weight make this very easy to manoeuvre, and this goes in next to obstacles (such as trees, bird feeders, and lawn edges) really well.
The only issue we’ve had with this relates to the cutting height adjustment ‘lever’. This is wholly plastic, and works by means of pulling a plastic handle out, moving it side to side, and pushing it back in so that a little plastic peg slots in to one of 5 cutting height selection holes. The 5th hole – the one for the highest cut on grass – is not good. On this setting, the peg gets stuck. There doesn’t seem to be sufficient space between the lever and the wheel to disengage this once it has been set to this height. The handle on the lever really strains and feels as though it might break, with no sign of dislodging the peg. I ended up using the end of a flat head screwdriver and poking this down the side of the hole selector to extract the peg without placing undue pressure on the handle. Will be avoiding this setting in future.
On paper this mower isn’t really suitable for our garden. We live out in the countryside and have a half acre plot – significantly more than the size for which this is recommended. However, our garden isn’t all lawned over one area each at the back/front, but over seven separate ‘zones’; is on a slope; and has walled areas and steps between every lawn. It’s really a series of smaller lawns rather than a big one. Until now, we’ve used petrol rather than electric mowers – the cabling needed for electric models is completely impractical in a large, tiered garden that’s prone to retaining water.
Previously, it’s been quite hard going lugging a mower round between walled areas, up and down steps. To make matters more interesting, our soil is clay: prone to cracking deeply and developing odd lumps and bumps in dry weather; and waterlogging, then remaining boggy, when it rains. That this is light has not been astonishing, but this mower has surprised by proving easier to use over lumps and bumps caused by cracking lawns and ants’ nests (a constant battle in our garden!) than petrol mowers. The lighter weight doesn’t do anything to help restructure the lawn, but does enable this to glide over obstacles, instead of struggling and even getting stranded on them. This has also proved more practical in some respects when it comes to our water-retaining soil: this is so light that it can be used pretty much as soon as the soil is OK to walk on, whereas heavier mowers can start to sink/dig in to the ground if it’s not dried out below the surface. If we mow by using multiple batteries, or doing only a couple of lawns at a time, this lightweight battery mower works really well, even on a large garden.
4.5/5
Ok for quick cut but a bit flimsy
Does the job but cannot get the blade really low if you like a close grass shave. Cut adjustment not well designed or strong. Overall pleased to whip over small lawn quickly with no cable but wonder how it will stand up to regular use as all feels a bit flimsy.

Pushing my heavy mains mower round the garden was getting ever more harder and the mains lead always got snagged on things. I finally decided to move to a cordless mower and after doing quite a bit of research and the fact that I already have other Ryobi battery tools, I decided to go for their mower. What a great mower! It cuts both the front and back garden lawns with no effort and on one 5amp battery charge. The back garden lawn is roughly 60×50 ft and the front is 15×12 ft. Very happy with this machine, and so is my back!
