6. No combusted fossil fuels... inside the mower.
How do you get power to your house though? :P Unless you've got solar, hydroelectric or nukes in your area, you're still burning something.

I've never tried an electric mower actually. But I'm very sensitive to even electric motor smells. That metallic ozoney tang when they start to get hot... not unpleasant like a small combustion engine, but very strong to my nose.

5. I like the smell of freshly cut grass, but ....
I am allergic to grass, and it creates a firestorm with my allergies and nostrils.

I used to take a pill for it, but at the lowest dose it knocked me on my ass for the next day. So I hire it done now.

7. I'm glad I'm not the only one
Most people that I know love that smell.

I don't like it because I associate it with having to mow in humidity and 95-degree temperatures!

9. I'm another one that likes the smell, but is killed by the alergic reatction
I have a small lawn, so I use a push mower, though if I did have an electric, it would be hydro.
