I am a home owner with a small yard that takes about 45 minutes to cut. As a home owner cutting grass is the bane of my existence so I am not the neatest neighbor and tend to cut only twice a month. In addition I am very mechanically dis-inclined such that my past cheapo lawn mowers tend to last between a year and a year and a half. Suggestions (besides hiring other to do it).
Answer
With what you have and what your preferences are, I would go with the electric mower.
The advantages:
1- It is virtually maintenance free. It either starts or doesn't. The only thing for you to do is check the power source and the connection. The are numerous things that can make a gas operated mower not operate.
2- One thing I found is that an electric mower tends not to bog down in tall grass like a gas operated mower can.
3- The cost of powering the mower is cheaper than gas. No gas, no oil, no spark plugs, etc.
4- You are buying less extra parts.
5- You don't have to make sure the gas is emptied out of the tank at the end of the season.
6- Less noise.
Yes, you have to be careful not to cut the cord but it becomes second nature with practice. I've done it once in 15 years. They have accessories that can help keep the cord from the blades.
If you had to cut a half acre or run out 250' of cord to mow, gas op would be the way to go.

Riding Lawn Mower or Push Mower?
i am NOT
I have about an acre that I have to push mow every weekend. I'm getting a big bonus next month and plan on using about$300-$400 getting a riding lawn mower. How much of a difference will this make as far as saving time? Thanks for the responses.
Answer
It will cut your time in half if not a little more. The trimming will take up most of the time if you need to do any.
