I've never used a battery powered electric mower.

I used a gasser for only 6 weeks when staying at someone's house for the summer.

But I've been using electric cord mowers ever since I turned 14 years old. Not only are they much cleaner and quieter than gassers, and cheaper than battery mowers, but they are much lighter than both.

And, as Robert noted, when you want to use it, you just use it. Like any other appliance. No checking, no tune-ups, just sharpen the blade every now and then.

And unless the lawn extends to half a mile from the nearest outlet, then I can't imagine why anyone wouldn'y use a cord mower.
