How we sorted the field: We compared cutting width, power platform, drive type, runtime claims and what comes in the box. This is a spec-based buying guide built from published specs and retailer listings.
The quick list
Start with your yard and your patience. Wider decks finish sooner; self-propelled drive saves effort; compact decks are easier to store.
This is the one to start with when you want a full-size cordless mower without giving up the help of self-propelled drive. The Select Cut multi-blade setup is the headline feature, while the quoted runtime of up to 100 minutes gives it the strongest endurance claim in this group.

Premium setup will cost more than a basic push mower
The LM2135SP keeps the two features that matter most here: a full 21-inch cutting path and EGO’s Select Cut system. It makes sense for shoppers who like the EGO platform but find a better price or package on this model than the top pick.

A steel deck, brushless motor and 21-inch cut put this Greenworks in the sweet spot for a homeowner who wants a serious mower without paying for self-propelled drive. The included 5.0Ah battery and up-to-60-minute runtime claim make the package easy to compare.

Small lawns rarely need a heavyweight machine. This 16-inch Greenworks trades cutting width for easier steering, lighter handling and a smaller storage footprint. The 40V, 4.0Ah battery is included, so there is no separate power-pack purchase to make.
This 40V package takes the same whole-yard approach in a slightly narrower 20-inch mower. It is a practical fit when platform simplicity matters more than chasing the widest deck: three tools, one 40V battery family.
RYOBI keeps the formula simple here: a 20-inch cutting path, 40V battery power and a brushless motor. It is a sensible middle ground for a routine suburban lawn, especially for anyone already invested in RYOBI’s 40V outdoor tools.

The WG751.3 pairs a brushless motor with a steel deck and WORX’s IntelliCut sensor. That combination is aimed at people who want the mower to respond as grass conditions change, while the 3-in-1 setup keeps discharge options open.

20-inch deck gives up an inch to the biggest models
The WG743 is the practical choice for a lawn where easy handling beats raw cutting width. Its 17-inch deck sits between the smallest Greenworks and the full-size machines, making it easier to thread through tighter spaces without taking quite as many passes as a 16-inch mower.
Toro’s built-in striping setup gives this mower a clear specialty: a finished lawn with visible bands. The 21-inch deck is full size, but this listing is best for shoppers who already own compatible Toro 60V batteries because the battery and charger are not in the box.
