EGO Power+ 21" Self-Propelled Mower vs Ryobi 40V HP Self-Propelled Lawn Mower

The EGO Power+ is the stronger mower for most people: a wider 21-inch cut, a 56V 7.5Ah battery with longer runtime, and the Select Cut multi-blade system that lets you swap blades for mulching or bagging. The Ryobi 40V HP is a solid step-down that runs on Ryobi's 40V battery line and adds cruise control, but it cuts narrower, runs shorter, and its 1.5-inch minimum height leaves taller grass. Owners of both praise the brushless motors and polymer decks; the EGO is the one reviewers treat as a near-gas replacement.

• Choose the EGO Power+ 21-Inch if you want the widest cut, the longest runtime per charge, and the most flexible mulching and bagging setup.
• Choose the Ryobi 40V HP if you already own Ryobi 40V batteries and tools, or you want cruise control on a self-propelled mower.
