Default Husky lawn stuff

electric lawn mower 200 off and a spare battery LE322R

Trimmer old model 336LIC. 100 bucks new from dealer

Leaf blower model 350. 70 off and a spare battery

So 1660 plus tax for all 3

wife wants a leaf blower and for 10- bucks get a trimmer that takes batteries

Kind-of want a electric lawn mover as moved to town and they might work as they have been out for a few years now

can still go gas lawn mower for 600 or so but

what U say

R they reliable now, with 2 batteries or 5 in total some of the batteries should last

anybody got a lawn mower that works

the leaf blower is for the rock gardens and maybe soft snow in the winter for the sidewalk and garage driveway

sale started today and we waited for a month to get decent pricing

our gas lawn mower was bought in 2012 from crappy tire for 310 bucks and still works

just thought with all new stuff and new batteries we should be good for what 7 years, then I hire it out anyways

thanks

Buy a stihl power head and get the attachments for it. I did and it works great. Go with a bigger size head for power and it will last you a lifetime. And you can always buy other attachments if the need arises. Buy once cry once. Then you don’t have to worry about replacing batteries when they go bad

I finally abandoned my 1992 John Deere SB14, when the blade clutch wore out last year. I purchased a new Honda 217, and unless we relocate to an acreage as we are considering, I will likely never purchase another mower. Batteries are expensive, and I am not yet convinced they will last long term.
