I am thinking of getting the Toro cordless mower and worried about how it cuts thick grass. My yard has thick grass and it has a lot of moisture. I am curious how dose this mower do by it being cordless? Also if not this mower how about the Toro gas mowers like the ones with the pace self propelled systems with either electric start or blade brakes? thank you

Answer
If you are looking for a Toro mower, I would go with recommendations by Consumer Reports. They just came out with their latest reviews of the top lawn mowers for this year and several Toro mowers are on the list. But they are all gas-powered. If you have a large yard and thick grass, I'd go with the gas mowers as it's more powerful than electric mowers.

Some of the Toro mowers mentioned are:

Toro Super Bagger 20192
Toro Recycler 20333 (this was on last year's list as a "best buy" also)
Toro Recycler 2033

I'm looking to buy a gas mower and edger. What features are important and what brands are best without killing my wallet? The max I'm looking to spend on the mower is $300.

Answer
You can buy a decent mower at Home Depot for about $300- $350. It will be a rear discharge and be self propelled. Consumer Reports Magazine recommends the Toro Recycler 20332 in this price range.
$50 more buys a Toro 20333 or a Honda HRR216K7VKA which are similar but rated slightly better on ease of use All three of these were Best Buys in CR's May 2011 issue.
