Pros: No noise, no smell, easy start
Cons: HEAVY, lacks the power to cut larger lawns on one charge
Summary: For the first time in my 37 years, I learned how to mow a lawn today.
I wasn't actively avoiding lawn mowing for all those years. When I was a child, my father mowed the lawn - he once told me it was too dangerous for one as young as I, and ... read more

Pros: VERY quiet, lightweight, No bag required - mulches clippings into lawn
Cons: batteries are weak, wish it had a wider blade
Summary: My dad picked up this mower new in the Sacramento area during a save the air campaign. He took our old clunker from the 80's (man I hated pushing that thing) and traded it in for this beauty. This a great mower. It mulches the clippings back into the ... read more

Pros: Quiet, plastic deck, mulch or bag or side discharge, no gas required
Cons: minimal power, fixed handle, narrow swath
Summary: It's simple to use and it mows pretty well, as long as your grass is fairly short and dry. There is allegedly a bagger for this, but I've read that it's pretty small. There are only two height adjustment levers, one for the front and one for the back. ... read more

Pros: quiet, not horribly heavy, no exhaust fumes
Cons: rather wimpy for foot-high grass, slightly fragile
Summary: I just bought a house...and along with it came the job of mowing the lawn, at no added extra cost. Came down to two choices: hire someone else to do it, or do it myself. And I hate the idea of paying someone to do such a relatively trivial job, ... read more

Pros: No gas to fill, easy to start, and no catcher bags to empty!
Cons: Not good with really dense lawns
Summary: I purchased the toro in a county wide "exchange your polluting gas mower for credit towards a cordless electric mower" program. I'm really glad I did. Imagine this: No gas to fill, no hard starts in the fall and winter, and no catcher bags to empty! ... read more

Pros: Easy start, good for environment, quiet
Cons: Not self-propelled
Summary: Toro Cordless Recycler
After much discussion, my husband talked me into this one. I usually do the mowing (he swore he would if we bought this). Something in your way? Just stop and move it. No more struggling to restart the mower. No more ... read more

Pros: Ease of use, quietness, weight
Cons: Battery life, battery availability, side discharge bag awkward
Summary: I purchased the E24 about 2.5 years ago. Up until now, it worked great. However, the battery has lost its ability to fully charge, and finding a replacement battery is difficult...and expensive ($100+ for just the battery). I called four local Toro ... read more

Pros: cuts
Cons: no cord
Summary: There is no cord on this mower whats the point. If there is no cord you cant steal power from other people like Scott. Scott uses the cord for many things he steals power. Uses it as a clothes line to hang wet clothes in his back yard. He also uses it ... read more

Pros: Never have to run to the gas station in the middle of mowing
Cons: can't handle long grass well
Summary: I bought the Toro E24 when my old Craftsman went belly up.(The shaft broke). Ever since my lawn has never looked so good. Mulching mowers are the best way to go. The only downfall is that it rains so often in Seattle that I can't mow on a rigid schedule. ... read more

Pros: Effective, quiet, environmentally friendly
Cons: Has trouble with thicker grass, pricey
Summary: I recently bought a home and for the first time I had to deal with mowing a lawn (albeit a relatively small one on my 1/8th acre lot). After running over a cord numerous times as a teenager using an electric mower and not really caring for the idea of ... read more

Pros: Light, Quiet, No bagging, no gas, no hassles, does a good job at mowing, good for environment, good for lawn
Cons: limited to 60 minutes a day, may leave wheel marks
Summary: I love the Toro E24 cordless recycler. Most people who own it now probably bought it because they were interested in being environmentally friendly. People who have to mow the lawn would probably buy this lawnmower regardless of the environment -- if ... read more

Pros: Mows very similarly to a traditional gas powered mower, but quieter and with no exhaust.
Cons: Limited battery life means if you can't complete the lawn in 60 minutes or less, plan to mow the front one day, and the back another day, or don't go with a cordless.
Summary: I read the other opinion about the guy who successfully modified his Toro 24V by installing a different battery system himself. If you're a do-it-yourselfer, this might be a realistic possibility. However, I personally wouldn't do it within the first two ... read more

Pros: Quiet, no real maintenance, easy to use
Cons: Used to run out of power too soon
Summary: If you've never tried a cordless electric lawn mower, you're in for a treat!
I've owned and used the Toro E24 Carefree cordless mulching lawn mower (Model 20648) for nearly two seasons now and I'm delighted with it. I'd always owned gasoline powered ... read more

Pros: A nice Toro cut
Cons: doesn't go very long on a charge
Summary: I bought one of these mowers because I was trying to reduce noise and pollution. This is a pretty nice mower and cuts like a Toro but overall i was disappointed because...The sales man guy said that it will last like 75 min on a charge. well it takes me ... read more

Pros: light, quiet, powerful enough, reliable
Cons: getting fleeced on battery replacement if you don't do your homework
Summary: I have had this toro 3 years (I got it second- or third-hand) and I love it. It is quiet, light and cuts well even in heavy grass. A new battery gives it new life pretty easy. My main reason to write is to follow up "Cordless mower fix Mar 03 '00"
