    I would say yes, especially if you’re talking the greenworks 80v pro series. Costco has a pretty sweet package - mower, trimmer, leaf blower, 2 batteries, quick charger all for like 700ish. I have them and would highly recommend If that fits your budget.

    Thats right $650 if I recall correctly, they are selling quick and I don't know about restock so if you are on the fence go for it.

    I got this: https://www.homedepot.ca/product/ryo...ger/1001057306, and https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/greenwo.../6000199217361.

    My yards are pretty small, I think about 2000sq.ft in total, and have a bit of navigation around trees etc, so I wanted something with a smaller deck. Also, got the extended warranty ($30) at Walmart as I expect the battery to kick the bucket on the Greenworks before 5 years.

    The Costco set is good value though, I would have bought it if I had a bigger yard but couldn't justify the 50% extra cost.

    I got that same Ryobi combo and it works great, more than enough power for the typical home owner.

    Home Depot has the Ryobi 18V ONE mower/blower/trimmer kit on sale this week for $399. Extremely low stock, I may have just ordered the last one in the city. Only suitable for tiny inner city yards like mine I suspect, the mower is a puny thing, which is fine by me. Will report back if my order is actually fulfilled.

    well, it's in my truck so I guess the Home Depot inventory system was working. Will report back after unboxing this weekend.

    Is this one a push mower? Is it worthwhile to buy the self-propelled one?

    Yeah it’s only push, not self propelled. They do make a SP version but not available in this package as far as I know.

    The answer to your question depends on a few things
    1. Is your yard flat or sloped, and how much of it is sloped and to what degree
    2. How big is your yard
    3. How lazy you are

    The nice thing about battery mowers is that they are lighter than their gas powered cousins so it’s really not that bad to push them even up a slope. So overall I’d say most people can get by without self propelled, but if you have a massive sloped yard and you’re out of shape then you may want the self propelled.

    Nice thing about Costco package is their return policy so if you really hate not having self propelled after a few tries then just return it.

    I don't think unboxing videos are very popular on OF

    Damn, would home depot take a rain check for that Ryobi kit? Im gonna need some gear for the new house.

    On another note... Where the hell are the big kits? I will be needing a hedge trimmer, mower, weed wacker, blower ( I guess), even a telescoping mini chain saw... I wanna buy it all with one click.

    Dang that ryobi kit is a good deal. For perspective, I paid 200 for a milwaukee blower and another 150 for 2x5ah batteries.

    Yeah, this is why I've been asking about kits for so long! I priced out mower and trimmer separate and I was $100 more than this mower blower trimmer kit. Got a second charger in that price I guess, but nah.

    I was gifted the Ryobi self propelled lawn mower for father’s day. Going to give it a try sometime this week. See how long the battery runs for.

    My mower isn't self propelled but I have a 6Ah battery and I can mow/trim/edge/blow my front & back yards, my neighbors front & back yards, and the 2-doors-down neighbor's front yard all exactly 3 times before my battery needs charging. The yards aren't that big but the run time is incredibly good with the 40V stuff in my experience. Only complaint is without the fast charger (which is a giant rip off) it takes around 4h to charge, but it's not difficult to keep it charged.
