    I have got 9 people to buy electric lawn mowers. Electric lawn mowers are amazing.

    You can one up him buy getting one of those automated ones that run automatically every couple of days. Get it to run at night and he will be amazed how you keep a perfect lawn without him ever seeing you mow

      Careful running those at night. Depending on local wildlife, you might end up waking up to a mowed hedgehog.

      Why would you run it at night? They’re not as loud as petrol mowers, but spinning blades are not exactly quiet when mowing

          Oh neato then. I had a full-sized corded lawn mower back when I lived in a house where I was burdened with a lawn. It was quieter, but still loud.

          Glad to hear that there are quieter ones.

          Or the properties are just so huge you wouldn’t disturb anyone haha (I lived in a inner suburban place where the next house was less than 5m wall to wall)
