The entire lawn mower and the battery cost about the same price as the battery!
Response from greenworkstools.comBy Greenworks, Customer Care, September 7, 2021
Hello ddddddd,
Thank you for your feedback. Batteries are the costliest items to manufacture and ship in any kit. Full kits including a tool, battery, and charger are priced affordably so that consumers can begin building that line of tools and move forward purchasing tool-only units. When you purchase batteries on their own, it is more notable the cost that they carry. We apologize if this is of any inconvenience to you. To learn about other offers please email us directly at info@greenworkstools.com or call our toll-free number at 1-888-909-6757 (1-888-90WORKS) we would be happy to carry on the conversation. Alternately, you could follow us on social media for updates on new units, promotions, and more!
Works just as expected but with easier use than a traditional gas powered. I was so excited to use it I couldn’t stop at just my lawn and edged all my neighbors too.
I bought this edger a month ago and have used it several times. It works great and uses the same battery as my Greenworks mower, trimmer and blower. I don't miss the hassles of gasoline powered equipment or tangled extension cords. Much easier to use than turning a trimmer on its side and chewing up the line.
