Hi All,
We are moving into a new place and got around 300m2 of front and backyard to mow the lawn.
Something you should know about me. I’m lazy. I hate vacuuming and after buying Roborock and Dyson stick vacuum I saved my relationship.
Now wifey wants me to mow the lawn and I’ve done this few times in my life and hated it.
Budget $600-$800 max with mower and trimmer.
Questions:
1) Electric cordless lawn mower vs Petrol which one is easier to manoeuvre and maintain?
2) Edge and line trimmer battery or petrol easy to use?
3)Can you recommend me something within my budget?
I did some research and Ryobi from Bunnings 36v has raving reviews (below) and line trimmer 36v skin only and I can use the same 36V battery.
If it’s the option to go for then is it Bunnings who sells the cheapest price for Ryobi?

1) Cordless should be much lighter so easier to move around. Cordless also won't need things like oil changes and spark plugs as far as I know so should be less maintenance. Only maintenance is probably changing worn blades but that would be needed on both types regardless. However, you may end up needing new batteries depending on how much they're used.
2) Battery would definitely be easier as there would be no possible frustration from pulling on the starter cord hopelessly along with it being lighter.
3) Pretty sure Bunnings is the only regular store that sells Ryobi. You could have a look at 36V ozito's if you wish to keep closer to the bottom end of your stated budget range. Ozito batteries also seem to go on good sales occasionally which appear on ozbargain.
