Lawn Mowers

Clean-running electric and reel mowers help reduce smog-forming emissions that add to the Valley’s summertime ozone-pollution problem. A typical lawn mower, which is an unregulated product, when used just 45 minutes a week spews the equivalent pollution of 43 new cars driven 12,000 miles a year. Electric and reel mowers work just as well and produce no emissions. Last June the local Air District gave a discount of $35 to $88 to Valley residents who purchase one of four new electric or reel (push) mowers at any of the 14 Orchard Supply Hardware stores in the San Joaquin Valley.
We'll be getting rid of our old mower this Spring, hope they offer this discount again.

I think I like this mower.
