Not to mention they don't "dew' wet grass real well...

As for powered lawn mowers, my dad had a little Toro battery powered lawn mower for years. It was noticeably quieter than a gas powered model. It made it through 2 battery changes but rust made for it's ultimate demise.

I personally miss the 28 inch Snapper riding mower I sold in the last few years, riding mowers are like pick up trucks, don't realize their true value until they are no longer around. I'm pretty sick of the self propelled Craftsman model I figured would be sufficient.

On a side note, always exercise caution when attempting to free a stuck blade on a human powered model. NEVER USE YOUR HAND, find something to pry the stick or impediment out of the blade...
