If the corded mower does not have a cord, does that mean that I would need to buy a cord attachment or do I have the option of using the battery also?

This unit is operated with an extension cord. You would need to supply the cord yourself.

Hi, there is NO cord involved with this unit; no cord comes with it or can be purchased for it; there is no option to connect or use a cord. This is basically a weed wacker/edger that sits in a mower base (is removable for weeding/edging) that can be reinserted into "mower base" to use as a mower (push). It does do a good job (even with tall grass) if moved back + forth (like a vacuum cleaner). The handle of the wacker/edger has a removable battery (in fact 2 batteries come with unit) that are charged + slide onto the back of the handle (at the top) for use. Hope that helps.

Since this is not a corded mower but a battery powered one the question is moot. and this is for small small areas like an incline or tiny yard if you are going to use it to mow. You need to buy an electric mower for what you are talking about. Not this item which is essentially a weedeater with wheels. If you buy electric you need a drop cord . period. you can't use a cord on a battery powered mower. THIS MOWER/WEEDEATER does not use a cord but a battery . The two are not interchangeable.

An interesting question. The other three tools in the box do use batteries, and the lawn mower appears to have the cavity where batteries might go, but the lawn mower we received did not have the apparatus for installing batteries. I don't know if it was designed that way, or if our mower has a defect. You can pull the cord to "start" it, and it makes a noise when pushed over the lawn, so perhaps this one item was not intended to take batteries.

You'll need to buy a battery and charger. $100 for the battery and the charger is around $50 or so. I'm a carpenter and all my cordless power tools are majors. That's why I wasn't concerned that it didn't come with a battery. If your looking to buy a cordless power tool I would buy a 2 piece majors drill and driver kit. You'll get a charger 2 batteries and a drill and impact driver for around $299. If you do the math your basically getting the drills almost for free. I love my seedeater. It really does run for a good 40 mins. Hope this helped.

I did say that in my initial review. However, just to double check I ran down my battery again. I can 100% say that you CANNOT use it without the battery charged while being plugged in with the cord. I am very sad about this lack of functionality.

There are many different types of lawn mower batteries. However, all of them have a "post" or other type of connection for the red and black wires to connect to. Check the existing red and black wires attached to the battery from the lawn mower. You should attach the charger cables where these existing wires are attached to the battery, being careful to connect red to red (positive) and black to black (negative).

Not sure.Mine is corded, and I didn't realize it was described as being battery operated.

Cordless only. Great tool. But no way to use it plugged in. It has a charger that cradles the battery. You could get a second battery and leave one on the charger and one in the unit. Lasts a good long while on the battery, never ran out on my small projects.

You have to supply the battery. I already had two from a drill,set I bought previously. This tool,is one of many that all are battery powered, so you can use all the different ones switching off batteries one to another depending on the job/ tool. I think the batteries are $90 or so, but you will need a charger too. Might make sense if you need a drill to get their battery operated one,etc. check the whole line out. I can tell you they work great, are not wimpy at all and it is great to be cordless with these tools.

The mower does not come with its own electric cord. One has to buy one of the length you need to cover the area you will be mowing. It does have wiring from the handle (where you attach your cord) down to the motor.

This was a gift, but if i remember right, you must use the ac cord. No battery option.

This mower requires an extension cord to operate. It does not have batteries.

You do not remove the battery to recharge the battery. A provided transformer plugs into the lawn mower and an electrical outlet to charge.

No. This is an electric powered mower. You will need an extension "cord" to operate the mower. I have been happy with my purchase. It cuts my lawn cleanly and is easy to adjust the height of the blade. It is also light weight and easy to maneuver .

I am looking into buying this model as well and am interested in the answer to Erin Leddy's question - can you take out the battery and charge it outside of the mower? I will be storing the mower in a shed with no power, so this is a key consideration for me. Thanks!

It requires a cord, which is good because you get constant full power to complete the job vs. having to stop and wait around for the battery to charge. The cord is better for home owners, because you will only pull this out for occasional projects and then put the tool away. The battery operated tool requires recharge and will lose it's charge and effectiveness if not used regularly. Then you will have to buy a new battery, which is expensive.

Yes, the mower has no internal battery so it must remain connected. You use a separate extension cord so whatever length cord you get determines how far the mower can go.
