  • The AWD Ryobi Electric Lawn Mower is here, and not only does it keep everything we loved about the original Crosscut mower, it got some HUGE upgrades. In this video, Kenny gives you a walk-around of both the last gen and the new model, explaining the differences, upgrades, and why we think the Ryobi RY401210 is a great investment.
    If you're looking for info on runtime, cut quality, price, or features, you've come to the right place!

    On my second season with this mower. So far so good. I have a small yard and I could probably mow 2x on one battery. It’s nice quiet and the cross cutting and mulching is great. Got this as a package deal with the whisper series blower.

      Nice deal. I just picked mine up yesterday and did the lawn one batter entire back, side, and front. My entire house lot is shy of 7000sqf. Super quite, love it.

    I still like my original cross cut mower after my second summer of use, however there are a few things about this mower and system that no one talks about. The main thing that is worrisome is the batteries. When I first purchased the mower I could do about 8/10 of my 1/4 ac. yard with one battery. As time went on, the batteries started to get weaker and weaker to the point where I could not mow my entire yard with the two 6ah batteries. My yard is flat St. Augustine grass and I cut it on #3 because it is very healthy and thick. Sometimes after getting some rain the mower would have to rev up to get thru the thick grass and the batteries would heat up. There is where I think the problem is with these batteries. They don't like to be heated up from use or from storage and they degrade fast after a few times of heating up. I did call Ryobi and they did send me two free of the new 6ah HP batteries, but to be honest I don't see much difference between the HP and regular batteries when they were new. Not sure why they could not put in some cooling technology like Ego has, it would have saved them a bunch of battery returns. Also the mulch plug is not the best and will leak some grass until the gaps fill up with enough grass to stop up the leaks. Another thing that is really annoying is it constantly leaves uncut grass behind so I have to keep going back over spots with the mower or with the trimmer. I even tried mowing the whole lawn on the slowest speed and still have this happen all the time. I do keep my blades very sharp so that is not the issue. I also overlap pretty good so it is not that either. The problem is the blades will just not turn fast enough at regular speed to create enough suction to lift all of the blades. In summation, I still like the mower despite these shortcomings, but after my 3 year warranty is over on the batteries I am going back to a Honda gas mower.

    Question the flap where the grass comes out doesn't stay down when the bag is on. How do I make it stay down so all grass goes into the bag. Also, that lever that u raised for the mulch that goes left to right is sticking n not going to the right. Any idea why?

    I bought this cross-cut Ryobi mower based on the almost universally positive reviews on CZcams. I've now concluded that CZcams reviews are, by and large, made by "influencers" and wannabes who want free merch, or to get paid, and can't be tursted. I regret selling my gas mower and buying this. Two batteries won't finish even my small, 1/4 acre, yard and the cut is uneven and ragged. First bad experience I've had with a Ryobi tool.

    Be careful with Ryobi. They seem to be doing the "death rattle" Their social media is covered with people having issues with cheap built products. Watch Home Depot start to distance next. Not looking good. I'm extremely upset, I have about $7000 worth of eqt with them and I'm having stuff fall apart left and right now.
    Recently was the worst and their customer service is a black hole. "sorry, parts wont be here for 13 months, thats all we can do is wait" - Its insanity.
    I purchased a new mower (Crosscut) early last year. It failed by factory issues before the season was over. I sent it to Ryobi for repair. Was told will not be repaired until after March. Will be over 7 months of repair. I need a better solution before Feb. (season starts) - I am looking at not getting this lawn mower back/fixed at all in time for this season and it was sent to them in September.

      I’ve actually heard that HD bought ryobi. It was basically a name at that point…it’s as much an HD house brand as Rigid though I’ve seen Ryobi marketed more broadly around the world.
